About Us
The CithrÂh Foundation
We are a Christian Organisation eager to meet the needs of Individuals and families in need of support.
We have consist of a drop-in centre providing support, counselling, information and training for our volunteers and individuals seeking help in a crisis and a woman’s refuge for women and their families who find these homeless due to an abusive situation.
Our goal, 18 years ago, was to open a place of safety for women fleeing domestic abuse and we successfully achieved this on 14th April 2008.
Cithrâh offers you a way to safety, giving you time and opportunity to receive the help and support you need.

To be positive to encourage hope and empowerment, showing there is a way out and there is life after abuse. Highlighting the positives and abilities inside the person and families to overcome and live a life of their choice

do victims recover?
When?
When you are ready or when you feel safe.
Some victims leave, but can take years to get help, or never realise help is available and live in despair or in denial.
Leaving an abusive relationship is a process not an event.
How?
We will show the victim how to be safe by offering a place of safety advice & information.
We offer counselling, a listening ear, personal development.
Life building skills and even living skills, to help promote self-worth and offer direction.
What will we do?
We offer court support and help and advice with health and social care services. Benefits and Financial Advice are available. We will gladly help with anything within our remit and we will try to provide help and support where possible. We are committed to be and show an extension of God’s love to all
Seek help with CITHRÂH
All relationships have ups and downs. At any time in a relationship we may experience periods of harmony, commitment, disagreement and conflict, this is an acceptable part of all relationships.
Sometimes however these matters are not resolved. If one partner does not get their own way they may become controlling. Threatening and using fear to control, and or verbal abuse, physical force, emotional blackmail to get their own way is not acceptable.
There IS life after abuse and we at Cithrah are committed to help you on your journey.
