Who we can help

Our services are available to all Somali women and children who need our help. Our catchment area is primarily the London Borough of Wandsworth, but a lack of women-only services in neighbouring boroughs means that women from other parts of South London sometimes need our help. These women are never turned away. We accept self and agency referrals.  
         
We recognise that to improve the lives of women and children, Somali men sometimes need our help and support too. However, our priority is to work directly with women and children. We will support Somali men only as the relatives of our clients. However, we maintain strong links with projects that work with Somali men, and are happy to offer telephone advice and referrals on to more appropriate projects for those men who do approach us and are in need of help and support.
