About SATEDA

SATEDA is a leading domestic abuse charity in Kent, dedicated to ending domestic abuse by empowering women and children through education, support, and advocacy. Our mission is to help women reclaim their voices and rebuild lives free from fear.

As a specialist service, we support those experiencing, at risk of, or recovering from domestic abuse, while also campaigning for lasting, systemic change around gender-based violence.

"I truly didn’t know what to expect as I hadn’t heard of SATEDA, but I wouldn’t have got through this without them. It took me a while but I now realise I am important too and it’s ok to put myself first. Their support has benefited my life in every possible way."

Not sure if what you’re experiencing is domestic abuse?

Telling the difference between healthy arguments and disagreements in a relationship, and unhealthy, hurtful and controlling patterns of behaviour, isn’t always easy.

But you always need to trust your gut. If something doesn’t feel right in your relationship, it probably isn’t.

Visit our page “Am I experiencing abuse?” or visit Women’s Aid for more guidance.
