Qualified Caseworkers

We are committed to providing a safe and inclusive space for women and children and rely on the generosity of our donors to fulfill this promise.
100% of the funds received go to the operation of Bayside Women’s Shelter, and we are transparent about how we use our funding.

We’ll keep in touch through newsletters, emails, and social media to show the impact we are making. We will also ask you for feedback each year via a survey.

We will guard your privacy. We won’t share your details with other charities and marketers.

Our shelter is run by a professional and fully qualified team who include highly trained caseworkers and supported by community volunteers.

During the time in our shelter, our women are offered access to a range of services including medical, counselling, legal and government services.

Additional help includes becoming financially independent by helping with the setup and access of bank accounts, gaining employment or studying. We also help our women and children to access daycare centres or schools.

Where possible, we also support our women and children to find safe and affordable housing when they are ready to leave our Shelter and reset and rebuild their purposeful and independent lives.

We were gifted an incredibly high specification security system from our Security Partner.

While we have the most up to date systems in place to keep our women safe, we do expect that our women to assist themselves and other residents, by not disclosing the location of our Shelter or themselves.
