Women's Aid Full Membership
Full Membership is open to services who:
- Directly support women and child survivors of domestic violence as their main part of service delivery, and work in partnership with other dedicated providers of services to women and child survivors.
- Have a commitment to provision led ‘by women and for women’. Policy and procedures guarantee the chair and vice chair of the board, at least 60% of trustees, and the chief executive, will be positions held by women. This also means that members must only employ women to provide support to female survivors.
- Must share Women’s Aid’s mission, values, and terms of reference
- Agree to abide by the Women’s Aid Complaints Policy
- Must be able to provide at least 12 months of audited accounts.
What if my service doesn’t meet the criteria for Full Membership?
Women’s Aid offer Associate Membership for services interested in joining the Federation, but do not meet the requirements for full membership.
