Developer Jessup Partnerships has made a donation of furniture to help provide support for women and children who have suffered from domestic abuse across Wolverhampton.
The Haven, who provide both practical and emotional assistance to women and children who have been subjected to domestic abuse, received a whole house worth of items from one of the developer’s recently completed show homes.
Jessup Partnerships made the donation, which included beds, sofas, and wardrobes as well as drawers, televisions, tables and chairs, as part of its commitment to giving back to the local community, with the domestic abuse charity in close proximity to its Wolverhampton project, The Royal.
The donation is also in keeping with the developer’s continuing dedication to sustainability and the collective drive to protect the planet.
As well as providing support to women and children who have been subjected to all forms of domestic abuse, the charity also helps women who are at risk of homelessness.
The Haven is committed to sensitively addressing issues that impact both women’s and their children’s lives, with its specialist support including complex and specific additional needs.
Jade Secker, Fundraising Manager at The Haven Wolverhampton, said, “We are so grateful to everyone at Jessup Partnerships who have been involved in this incredibly kind donation.
“Many of those we support arrive to us with nothing more than the clothes they are wearing, having had to flee at a moment’s notice.
“Making our spaces warm, welcoming and equipped with all of the essentials is key to ensuring women and children can feel at home, and therefore where they can be safe whilst they recover and rebuild their lives following the trauma of abuse.”
Chris Timmins, Managing Director at Jessup Partnerships, said, “We’re very happy to provide such a worthwhile cause with this donation, as the work that The Haven does in the community is genuinely inspirational.
“At Jessup Partnerships, we have a great community spirit, so to give something back in this way is testament to that.
“The Haven does excellent work in providing support for those subjected to domestic abuse and we’re grateful that this donation can go towards that effort.
