Sandcastles, sea air and special memories. 🏖️💛

This summer, families in our refuges enjoyed a day at the beach thanks to the support of Gangar & Company Solicitors.

Sometimes the simplest moments can mean the most.

Creating space for connection, laughter and community💜

During the school holidays, residents at our Modern Slavery Support Refuge came together for games, food, music and dancing.

Sometimes the best days aren't about the weather, but the memories made together.

[Black Country Women's Aid @BCWomensAid]

Sunshine, creativity and plenty of smiles 🌞

During the summer holidays, families at our Domestic Abuse Support Refuge enjoyed face painting, crafts, water play and a much-loved bouncy castle.

Every child deserves carefree moments. These moments matter💜

Healing can start with something as simple as trying a new skill. This week, residents learned crochet, made crafts and connected with others in a safe, supportive space. Led by a volunteer with lived experience, the sessions were full of hope and creativity💜

[Black Country Women's Aid @BCWomensAid]

💜 When information is difficult to understand, it can become another barrier to getting help.

Our new easy-read resources use simple language and visual prompts to help people access support with confidence.

🌷 For #NationalDayofMemory, women in our modern slavery safehouse came together this week for planting, painting and reflection.

The women used the time to create something meaningful to them and their journey.

A powerful session focused on resilience, healing and hope💜
