Newcastle Women's Aid Coronavirus (COVID-19) – information

Here at Newcastle Women’s Aid the health & wellbeing of our staff, clients & communities is always close to our heart and in these extremely difficult and uncertain times we need to do the right thing for them by mitigating the potential spread of the Corona virus. We would like to thank you for your consideration and your continued commitment to our vital work.

We want you to know that while we may not be able to provide services as usual, we are still here for women & girls who may need advice or support.

Whilst we are office based, we will offer a telephone support service to new & existing clients.

Our primary concern is to keep everyone safe. This is a dynamic situation and, as such, plans will change according to new information and advice.

In the event we have to work remotely from home we will offer a telephone advice line to any caller during office hours.

We will endeavour to continue to update you via social media.
Please contact us as normal on 0191 2610504 or 0800 9232622.
