Our projects
We aim to improve the overall wellbeing of women, empower them and give back agency through workshops, support and information to reclaim their lives and hope.
Freedom Program
We are currently running a course on Fridays from 10.30 - 1330. This is a rolling course, so clients can join at any time and continue the following course, to catch up on what has been missed.
Our next course will be in January 2026 and dates and times will be advertised once this is set in stone. Living Keys are taking applications now. Contact us for the application form.
Drop-in Service
On Monday afternoon, we provide general services and support. From constructing CVs, emotional support, housing advice, support to complete all sorts of forms e.g universal credit, ESA, housing forms, support to open new bank accounts, support to apply for ID and more.
We also provide 1-1 support via appointments which also include attending court with victim, attending meetings with beneficiary.
We also provide an internet cafe, for women so that they can carry out work via our internet cafe.
If you are creative we have an artist corner and also a pampering corner, where you can get your nails painted and hand massage.

Through the years
In 2021
Living Keys was establised in June 2021 working remotely from home.
Supporting over 100 women in our first year providing courses on line and supporting women online until we could find office space.
In 2022
We supported over 115 women, and it was the start of a new season: we received an office space in a community centre, so we can now offer more support. We are able to plan workshops and a Drop In service, as well as facilitating free courses to women on a daily basis.
In 2025
We have supported 511 women so far and now have 70 ladies on our various different free courses for women, from September until Christmas.
Many have stated that they feel empowered and recognise that the abuse was not their fault and feel confident to move on with the help and support of Living Keys - we are here as long as they need us.
In 2023/24
We have supported over 400 women so far, and continue to offer support in various ways at our drop-in serviceon a Monday afternoon, providing free courses for women who have been through domestic violence and continue to journey with many when the courses come to an end. We also continue to run Cherished Support Group on a Monday morning and bring women together in our communities. Cherished has been running for 10 years on 9th November 2024.
