Information for Women
Glasgow Women's Aid works from a feminist perspective which acknowledges that the root cause of the abuse of women and children is the imbalance of power which exists within our society and allows some people to have more power than others.
The development of our service provision over the last 40 plus years has been guided by the women, children, and young people that we have supported. They are our inspiration.
