The Sutton Women's Centre provides a safe, women-only space where women can access specialist support, advice, information and education to help them achieve their potential, develop their skills, and live their lives free from domestic abuse. 

We understand the impact domestic abuse has on women’s self-esteem, their confidence, their ability to manage their daily lives, and their ability to look and plan for the future.   Our counselling service can help you understand yourself better and come to terms with what has happened to you.
Our counselling service is free to local women who have experienced domestic abuse.  We offer a minimum of 12 sessions.  A free créche is available. 

The Freedom Programme is a 12 week group course designed for women who are experiencing or have experienced domestic abuse.  The programme helps women - make sense of what has happened to them; recognise the characteristics and early warning signs of abusers and abusive relationships; and how children are affected by being exposed to this kind of abuse - and very importantly how their lives are improved when the abuse is removed.
You can refer yourself to this programme by contacting us on 020 8661 1991 or email us we can then explain in more detail how the service works and how we can support you. 
More information can be found at freedomprogramme.co.uk

We run support groups twice a month for women who have completed the Freedom Programme.  These group are facilitated by a qualified counsellor and crèche facilities are available.  Women find this ongoing support invaluable and many still need crisis intervention which is provided by our facilitator.
Volunteers provide a court buddy system to support women who are going to court to give evidence.  This is not intended to replace the Witness Service but to plug the gap when no resources are available.  Women are also offered support if their children are the subject of care plans.
