Young People Supported

In the past 3 years, Wycombe Women’s Aid has directly supported over 3,000 women, 350 children and 150 young people affected by domestic violence.  Our work enables women to leave behind the danger and trauma of living with domestic violence and establish safe and healthy lives for themselves and their children.

Could their courage and motivation inspire you to

make a difference?

Help us to raise funds

Wycombe Women’s Aid would not be able to carry out the work that it does without valuable and on-going financial support from individuals, groups and organisations within the local community.  Your generosity and commitment will help to improve the lives of local women and children experiencing domestic violence.

We have a number of different ways that you can help us to raise funds to cover our operations. Please follow the link below to learn more.

Help us to support others

Wycombe Women’s Aid believes that volunteers, with their varied skills, compliment the work of the employees and enrich and extend the services offered by the organisation.  Volunteering for Wycombe Women’s Aid offers women in the community the opportunity to be involved in services for women who have experienced domestic violence – this not only benefits the organisation but also benefits the community and the volunteer.
