Our partners
These valued organisations are proud members of the Gilgal family. Their support comes in many forms – from generous donations and seasonal gifts, to sharing their time, expertise, and professional skills. We’re deeply grateful for their partnerships, which play a vital role in helping us continue our work with women and children affected by domestic abuse.
It is our pleasure to support such a wonderful charity as Gilgal. To give a safe environment to women and children is one thing, but to give a safe environment where the same women and children are treated as individuals, afforded dignity and kindness whilst navigating huge changes in their life, even encouraged and supported to try new skills for their new path in life is quite rare.
We applaud you and your colleagues for the work you do, and look forward to our continued partnership in the future.Amanda Amass, Barratt Homes
