"MIN were there when I needed them the most. As a charity they helped me integrate back into society as well as giving me the much needed confidence I so badly needed, helping me rebuild my life. They listened, which was really all I wanted at the time. After years of suffering in silence MIN let me get it all out. I will forever be grateful for their understanding and patience.
A powerful message from Josephine, one of the many mothers we've empowered to rebuild their lives after leaving an abuse abusive relationship.

Post separation abuse is a hidden and insidious form of domestic violence that often leaves survivors isolated and without support.
This devastating pattern of control and coercion can continue long after a relationship ends, with mums particularly vulnerable to escalating abuse tactics such as harassment, stalking, intimidation, financial abuse, emotional manipulation, and threats of violence against them or their children.
Mums In Need is a unique charity that supports local mums in Sheffield and the surrounding areas who have left abusive relationships. Our services include 1:1 caseworker support, legal advice, counselling, wellbeing sessions, and peer support.
We provide life changing support that empowers mums to build brighter futures for themselves and their children.
Like many other support services, MIN is facing a critical funding shortage. Our caseload of mums seeking vital support services is soaring, and we urgently need to raise £30,000 to keep our doors open for the next year and continue helping those in need.
