How can i help?
At Roshni we are always looking for volunteers for our services to enhance the advancement of education and social welfare of Asian women and their children.
DV will affect 1 woman in 4 in their lifetime. Roshni supported 1,198 women and children, from the South Asian Community, over the last 5 years. We are aware that there are many other women and children who will need our support, so help us to support them by giving what ever you can.
Volunteering for Roshni is the most rewarding way to give back to the Asian community. It enables you to enhance your skills and broaden your horizons and to help improve your career prospects. It's a great way of gaining experience to help you pursue a career in the caring profession. There are three main areas in which Roshni need help from volunteers:
Refuge
Providing help, guidance and support to Asian women who are survivors of domestic violence during their stay at Roshni. This includes providing counselling and advice on welfare benefits, housing, legal issues, health and well being.
Support
Supporting the children's welfare through play therapy sessions and giving the mothers breathing space.
Resettlement
To provide advice, practical assistance and after care visits for Asian women and their children.
