Practical Support
Practical Support
Every mum referred to Mums In Need is assigned a dedicated 1:1 Caseworker who provides consistent, personalised support. Your Caseworker will guide you through a range of practical services, including:
Peer support groups
Financial wellbeing workshops
Legal information sessions
Educational guidance
These services are designed to help you navigate the challenges that often arise after leaving an abusive relationship, including family court, financial control, and hostile parenting.
Emotional Wellbeing
Emotional Wellbeing
We understand the emotional toll of post-separation abuse. That’s why your Caseworker can help you access:
One-to-one counselling with trauma-informed professionals
Group sessions focused on emotional resilience and recovery
Safe spaces to connect with others who understand your journey
These services aim to help you regain confidence, process trauma, and build emotional strength.
Physical Wellbeing
Physical Wellbeing
Looking after your body is just as important as caring for your mind. Subject to availability and funding, we also offer seasonal physical wellbeing sessions that may include:
Yoga and gentle fitness classes
Horticultural therapy
Mindfulness and relaxation workshops
These activities promote both mental and physical health, and offer opportunities for calm, connection, and personal growth.
