They were concerned about the numbers of women who were isolated and vulnerable because of violence/abuse, poverty, mental health and newcomer issues.

We wanted to create an informal safe place where women could learn about resources available to them and begin to overcome their isolation. Services: Women's Place Provides: Informal counselling |
