Emily (she/her)

Navigation & Support Worker (DV and Housing)

My role

I use my knowledge and expertise to build robust working relationships with the women I support. This focus on relationship building enables me to work in a trauma informed way when offering advice, signposting appropriate services and providing emotional and practical support to women experiencing the specific vulnerabilities of insecure housing and domestic abuse.

Perhaps most importantly, I am a consistent safe presence in our client's life, able to offer support in a person-centred way; knowing that sometimes that looks like emergency support with housing and safety- and other times just listening to what is going on and maybe chatting about TV over a cup of tea.
