Women ’s Aid has a 24 hour helpline which offers information, support and crisis intervention for abused women.  Women ’s Aid workers offer support and assistance in a way that will help an abused woman recover her self-esteem.  They will also help her to identify the available options and thus, encourage her to make informed decisions and choices.
