About
On average, eight women a day are hospitalised after being assaulted by their spouse or partner - One in 12 women hospitalised for intimate partner violence are pregnant - On average, one woman per week is killed by her partner or spouse. Intimate partner violence "produces fear and self-doubt; it threatens a person’s life goals, safety and even survival' and limits participation". Experts agree ‘women-central’ treatment continues to be best-practice, yet is overlooked by policy and funding priorities, and not embedded in services, which fail to provide beyond immediate crisis response. Hope and Heal addresses this, empowering survivors to take charge of their own health and wellbeing, learning self-driven recovery. The retreats are for women who have left abusive relationships and are not in a crisis. Most funding and support focuses on the immediate crisis period. There is little or no support for women that have left abusive relationships and continue to suffer from the ongoing physical and psychological effects of abuse.
