Recognising the signs is important, but so is what comes next.

Being a trusted, non-judgmental space for someone can help stop harm early.

Support is available. No one has to go through this alone.

Too many street-based women we support are unable to access the care they need. The average age of death is just 41.

We know this reflects real lives and real loss. To anyone who has experienced this, we are so sorry. You are not alone, let's talk.

Help us make a change.
