Free Grants

Free Grants for Deaf, Deafblind and Hard-of-Hearing Women Fleeing Domestic Abuse

We may be able to help deaf women who are fleeing domestic abuse through non-refundable grants.

If you meet the eligibility criteria, we can help with relocation and safety-related costs.

Grants may also help with cost of living expenses, such as energy bills.

All services are accessible, with bilingual staff, BSL interpreters and captioners.

* Please note that funding is not guaranteed, as decisions are made by external funders.

“I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop and would love to have more opportunities to create, learn new craft skills, other subjects and advanced levels as the options for myself as a deafblind person is very far and few. Just having that chance has been great as it has made a difference to my mental health”

“Thank you for arranging these wonderful events. It means I am able to feel part of a large community safely in my home!”

“It was amazing. Great for all of us to build confidence around horses, different sizes. It was emotional for me I feel I have got my life back. I enjoyed it so much that I didn`t want the day to end.”

“I am less anxious being in a group of deaf ladies discussing forums as I know I won’t be judged....people think because I have speech I can’t be severely/ profoundly deaf!.... and can follow the conversation captions and sign language is available. I am therefore more receptive to the information being given.”
