The fund is closed to applications
The Scottish Government’s Fund to Leave is closed for applications at South Ayrshire Women’s Aid. South Ayrshire Women’s Aid has distributed funding to 54 women and their children, helping them pay for the essentials they have needed when experiencing domestic abuse. It took 5 months for the funding to run out, and we ask the Scottish Government to establish the fund as a permanent budget fixture so that women and children in the future do not face financial barriers to safety.
