Objectives

Gilgal is an organisation that provides emergency accommodation for victims of domestic abuse and their children.

Gilgal staff work with individual women to develop bespoke plans to help them (and their children if appropriate) to find new accommodation, support in skills, confidence building, formal education and work opportunities as well as help them find safe accommodation.
