My CWA Information

For over 45 years, we have been supporting families across Cheshire affected by domestic abuse. Domestic abuse can affect women and men of all ages and economic backgrounds. It can affect people from different cultures and traditions. And it can happen in any type of relationship – gay, straight, married or not, with or without children. Our whole family service is designed to help everyone affected by domestic abuse. How we help We’re trained to recognise the signs and symptoms of domestic abuse. We can provide temporary, safe crisis accommodation for those who need to urgently escape from domestic abuse. We run the Lily Jones Support Centre, where families can access drop-in advice, legal clinics and a range of support groups and recovery programmes. We also offer counselling and specialist children’s support programmes.
