Providing Culturally Sensitive Support for BAME Women and Children Affected by Domestic Abuse

Who we are!

Welcome to Emaan House, a safe and supportive housing facility for women and their children who are experiencing domestic abuse.

We know first-hand the pain and fear that comes with living in an abusive relationship. It can be overwhelming and isolating, and it can feel like there is no way out. But we are here to tell you that there is hope and there is help.

At Emaan House, we are dedicated to providing culturally sensitive support and assistance to women from the BAME community who are affected by domestic abuse. Our priority is to support women who are at risk from forced marriage, honour killing, modern-day slavery, female genital mutilation, and sexual exploitation. We also specialize in helping BAME migrant women and children, as well as women who have no recourse to public funds.

Our team of dedicated professionals is here to provide a safe and supportive environment where you can heal from the effects of abuse and begin to build a new, safer life. We offer a range of services, including counselling, legal assistance, education and employment training, and support groups. We are here to listen and support you every step of the way.

If you are a woman who is experiencing domestic abuse, please know that you are not alone. Emaan Refuge is here to help you find safety, support, and empowerment. We welcome referrals from other organizations and agencies, and our services are available to women throughout the UK.
