About Juno Women's Aid

We have over 30 years experience and we are passionate about helping women and their children to stay as safe as possible and to recover from the harm of domestic abuse.

All our workers are women who are experienced and specially trained to understand domestic abuse and what impact it has on a woman and her children.  Whether bisexual, transgender or heterosexual, we have an expertise in working with women from all backgrounds, including Black, Minority Ethnic and Refugee communities.  We also have indepth knowledge in honor based violence, forced marriage, female genital mutilation, unsettled immigration status and no recourse to public funds.

Which areas do we work in?
