Mums In Need: Charity calls out abuse of Sheffield women and fights for them.
The Star wrote an article about our charity and highlighted that leaving abusive partners is " only the start of a mums journey who many find themselves battling a legal nightmare which goes on for years."
The Tribune asked their readers to suggest a charity for their Christmas appeal. Mums In Need were lucky to be put forward and picked, and Dan Hayes interviewed our founder Laura.

Sheffield Charity, Mums In Need, featured in a BBC2 documentary called Womanhood. The programme hears from celebrities including Strictly Come Dancing Judge, Shirley Ballas, writer Chidera Eggerue, businesswoman Jacqueline Gold, singer Sinitta Malone and comedian Suzi Ruffell. Together, they explore the role of women and their place in society, and meet with our CEO Laura Riley to discuss coercive control and the importance of supporting women in the aftermath of domestic abuse.
The documentary aired on the 26th November 2021 on BBC2.
