A Way Out is a courageous organisation – a charity that has
stood the test of time for the past 16 years.
A Way Out has courageous workers who support clients when they
are in danger and in pain; engaging,
empowering and equipping vulnerable
women, families and young people to live lives free from harm, abuse and
exploitation and to reduce life limiting choices and behaviour.
Fear is part of everyday life for A Way Out and for many
third sector organisations – fear for future financial survival in an economy
where funding opportunities are reduced and competition for remaining funding
pots is high; fear of not being able to meet the needs of our clients when
demands increase and capacity is stretched; fear for the very existence of our
clients as they struggle with so many life limiting issues… yet A Way Out and
our clients face that fear and with courage and continue to succeed.
Sir Winston Churchill once said that “courage is what it
takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and
listen” - this is A Way Out – intervention, prevention and listening
- mustering courage and, through trust and relationship, instilling the
same courage in those we seek to help.
