Statistics show one in four women will experience domestic violence from a violent partner at some point in their lifetime.
In Wolverhampton, The Haven has five refuges for women and dependent children and is able to cater for nearly 50 people at a time.
That care package involves more than a safe roof over their heads, says family support worker Charlotte Lloyd. Women are also offered counselling, signposting to other services and outreach support when they are able to move on.
Dedicated to the women who have graced the pages of history, from ancient to modern times.
