Survivor’s stories

What women say

I spent many weeks in a woman’s refuge after leaving a forty year marriage of domestic violence. I moved into temporary accommodation on 8th December, which is a one bedroom flat.

This is when Next Link became involved, they helped with form filling, which I find quite daunting at the moment. They have helped me in so many different ways, to me they are my safety net, and gradually because of their help, I am rebuilding my new life and looking forward to being rehoused permanently and settling into my new life.
