Committed to supporting vulnerable women and their families
Leaving a gift to us in your will is a promise to be there for the women and children cross Derbyshire who are suffering from stress, abuse or victimisation.
Making a Will is something that is private and important for everyone, it makes sure that your wishes will be reflected in what happens after you die. No matter what size of gift you leave it will change lives, it will help our work live on and will offer support to those in need.
Read on for more information on the impact a gift could have for the individuals we support or download our Legacy Booklet to find out more on how to leave a gift.

I joined the charity because the belief and values that were used to support and encourage vulnerable women and families are also a part of my beliefs and values. Also, the programmes that were developed are encouraging and useful. The staff are committed and helpful. Here at Women’s work the goal is to make a difference in individual lives and by far that is the best part of volunteering for me.

Thank you Women’s Work for all your hard work on helping families like my own, rekindle parent-child relationships in a positive and supportive homely environment. I would like to give a particular thank you to Linda, who has been very supportive to both parties.

After doing Healthy relationships, I have better knowledge about abusive relationships and can now recognise the red warning flags in the early stages. I have learnt to love myself, and will not allow anyone to control or abuse me anymore
