Scottish Women's Aid
Our main appeal
SWA: Working towards safety for every woman + child in Scotland
Every year over 60,000 reports of domestic abuse are recorded by police across Scotland. Women often encounter inadequate police responses and insufficient justice. With your help we can change that.
About Scottish Women's Aid
Our vision is a Scotland with no domestic abuse, where women, young people, and children enjoy all their human rights and have equal opportunity to explore all their ambitions and aspirations.
We play a vital role coordinating, influencing and campaigning for effective responses to domestic abuse.
We work with a network of 36 specialist local Women’s Aid groups toward a shared vision of a Scotland where domestic abuse is not tolerated.
