Support for Women

Next Chapter began life as Colchester & Tendring Women’s Refuge in 1976. Since then, our work has branched out to cover all regions of Essex, and our Staff team has grown to over 70 – this growth means we are now able to offer our services to Male clients across Essex.

You can find the support options we have available for Women by visiting our parent site.

We offer a range of services to support people in the community to help them stay safe, manage and escape from domestic abuse and recover from their experiences to live the next chapter of their life free from domestic abuse.

Explore what services we offer in the community and how you can access them safely.
