Woman’s Trust is a specialist mental health charity, providing free counselling and therapy for women in London, who have experienced domestic abuse.

Over the past 28 years, we have saved the NHS £9.8m by delivering free mental healthcare, to more than 20,700 women.

We empower women to rebuild their lives after domestic abuse

1 in 4 UK women will experience some form of domestic abuse and it’s the leading cause of depression among UK women. Yet we are one of the few organisations addressing the link between domestic abuse and women’s mental health.

Since 1996, we have supported thousands of women from across London, through our free counselling; group therapy; and self-development workshops.

All our services are always offered completely free of charge, no questions asked and regardless of your background.
