Women's Referrals

Women

We work with women and dependent children who have no recourse to public funds.

These are people who have been either trafficked, abandoned by their partners, escaped modern slavery and/or fled domestic violence.

We help them work through their circumstances and move on from traumatic experiences of the past to a better, brighter future.

Make a Referral

For Social Services Referrals: please complete Referral Form Social Services and return to womenreferrals@justhomes.org.uk

For other agencies: please send an email to womenreferrals@justhomes.org.uk for enquiries, during weekday working hours.

We cannot take self-referrals from the general public.

Support

We provide one-to-one and group support.

We also work with partner organisations to ensure that more specialist support is provided, including immigration advice, parenting skills, counselling, health care services and improving life skills.

Residents are expected to take part in a small amount of voluntary work tasks where possible with our partner social enterprise.

Accommodation

We provide fully furnished individual rooms within a house with shared-use facilities such as a kitchen, bathroom, toilet and lounge.

Our houses are based in Newham. They are maintained to a very high standard, and each one also comes with a garden.

There are also free laundry facilities available and some basic cleaning products are provided to all residents. Some of our properties have a separate pram-parking area. There is free Wi-Fi available in all the homes.
