   Residential Women’s Centres (RWC) are part of the government’s plan to address the root cause of women’s offending behaviour and reduce reoffending in England and Wales.

   They are specifically designed to address the fact many women who commit low-level crimes, such as shoplifting, and minor drug and alcohol-fuelled crimes, are driven by underlying and complex factors. Statistics show more than 60 per cent of women in custody have reported experience of domestic abuse, up to a third have been victims of sexual assault, and 50 per cent have drugs misuse needs.

   Women who attend Residential Women’s Centres will receive one-to-one mental health therapy, counselling to address their trauma from previous abuse and support to overcome addictions. The service will also provide longer-term support for women to help them find a job and maintain family relationships as they transition from the centre to life back in their communities, to help prevent reoffending.

   The first RWC is due to open in Swansea subject to planning permission.
