We can support you with access to safe crisis short term accommodation through provision of self-contained units from our refuge based in Athlone.

Our accommodation can offer you and your children safety, respite and comfort while we support you and your children around your needs. We have 5 family spaces, to meet the needs of families big and small, or women without children. Residents are free to come and go throughout the day while maintaining routines for work, school, college, etc. We do operate a nightly curfew to ensure safety and that all refuge spaces are used if needed.
