Freeva marks 20 years of supporting people affected by domestic abuse, rape and sexual violence across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.

At Freeva, we believe it is vital to listen, reflect, and learn from the work we do with children, young people, and families. We are proud to share the findings from our latest independent evaluation of The YP Project, which provides a clear and transparent assessment of the project’s delivery, outcomes, and impact for young people and their parents and carers

November 25th marks the beginning of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence (GBV), a global campaign that brings together individuals, organisations, and governments to demand an end to violence against women and girls. At Freeva, we are proud to be part of this crucial movement, amplifying calls for change, raising awareness, and advocating for systemic action to combat gender-based violence.

As we mark Trustee Week, we are taking a moment to recognise their insight, commitment and heart. Trustees often work quietly in the background, yet their decisions shape the services, culture and direction of Freeva. They offer guidance, expertise and care in ensuring that anyone affected by domestic or sexual abuse receives safe, compassionate and skilled support.
