After 14 years as CEO of Woman’s Trust, Heidi Riedel will be stepping down.
Chair, Niki Scordi, said: “Under Heidi’s leadership, Woman’s Trust has developed new innovative service models, now supporting almost a thousand women and girls each year.”

There's a strong link between #vawg and suicide. @PoliceChiefs reported on the high number of suspected suicides linked to domestic abuse earlier this year - and our own data shows survivors desperately need support for their mental health needs, too.

This #MHAW week I visited @womanstrust who offer life-saving services of counselling and peer support for domestic abuse survivors.
With a suspected abuse related suicide every 4 days, more funding is needed to address mental health impacts of DA.
Read @CommissionerDA blog ⬇️
Domestic abuse often has a profound impact on survivors' mental health.
But so many can't access the support they need to recover.
Domestic abuse services provide lifechanging mental health support, but funding is scarce. This needs to change #MHAW ⬇️ domesticabusecommissioner.uk…

We welcomed @LDNVictimsComm Claire Waxman OBE, this #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek to hear how survivors of domestic abuse are suffering in silence, without vital life-changing support for their mental health. We need to do more to support victims to prevent suicides #WomansTrust

This #MHAW, @BBCLondonNews will be highlighting the life-saving work of @womanstrust and the profound impact of domestic abuse on mental health. Watch BBC Politics London tomorrow at 10am, as I call on Government to ensure victims can easily access these critical services.
Great to be here at #VISIONADA2024 Adolescent Domestic Abuse Conference today. Looking forward hearing about the latest research findings @womanstrust #DomesticAbuse #mentalhealth @VISION_UKPRP

Thank you @womanstrust for welcoming me today. So inspiring to hear from women who have become ‘thrivers’ and ‘warriors’ thanks to the mental health support they received after experiencing domestic abuse.

@AUnabashedly now on: 'The Angleou service and the art I created as a result of the support, reminded me that I was so much more than my experience of abuse. Sometimes we have to fall so that we can renew and grow again differently.' #WholeVAWGServices #DomesticAbuse

@AUnabashedly says: 'All women and girls who have experienced #DomesticAbuse need to be fully heard. With the Angelou's holistic services, I could rise again.' #WholeVAWGServices

@AUnabashedly 'If any survivors are listening: Reach for the support. Contact Angelou. When you experience #DomesticAbuse sometimes you feel there's no space where people understand. But I went to Advance Charity and @WomensTrust and my life totally changed.' #WholeVAWGServices
