How can I get referred to a Women's Aid Refuge?

There are no hard and fast procedures. Referrals may come through Social Services, Police, Homeless Advice Unit, Samaritans, and The Citizens Advice Bureau. You may get in touch with the refuge directly or through the Women's Aid Helpline. If you need to go to a refuge in an emergency, the police can take you when asked to help. Social workers and GP's also have lists of refuge addresses.
