Stories from the Mums We Support

Asha
"Mums In Need provided me with a safe space to talk freely with people who understand the problems I was facing. They listened without judgement and gave the support I needed when I just didn't know how to cope. They have helped me to focus on healing so that I can thrive again and be the best mum I can be for my children. MIN has helped me reclaim my body and manage my finances, tackling the devastation left by coercive control. MIN has a big impact in helping women like me and their children rebuild safer and thriving lives."
Rach:
"Being able to speak with the workers there has been a lifeline. It provides a safe space where people understand what I’m going through. Having that support helps me manage my PTSD and look after my emotional well-being. Without it, this experience would feel incredibly overwhelming and isolating. "
Louise:
"I have had only continuous support and would go as far as to say the support the charity offers is life-saving., Thank you a million times."
