MK ACT

MK Act is a charity in Milton Keynes which works with over 100 families’ everyday to help them move on from fear and abuse. We have been providing safe emergency accommodation in Milton Keynes for women and their children escaping domestic violence for over 40 years.

We work actively with MK ACT to support women in safe houses and in particular women from BAME communities to support their religious and cultural needs. We regularly provide Eid hampers and Eid gifts for Eid to all women, Muslim and Non Muslim including regular donations of prayer mats, Qurans, clothes as well as funds to support the women furnish their new homes and support them in visiting their children and families.

If something doesn’t feel right in your relationship, it probably isn’t. If your behaviour has changed because of how your partner treats you or your children, this can be the sign of an unhealthy or controlling relationship.

We know talking to someone else about your personal life can be hard, but getting in touch with us can be your first and most important step.

Please note calls are low cost and in confidence. For support or to discuss your options call:

“I just wanted to say the biggest thank you for your kindness and generosity. The EID Hampers and gifts were amazing! They have really helped the families who are suffering from the effects of domestic abuse during Covid 19. The families loved them.”

I am emailing to say a very big thank you from our clients for the lovely thoughtful gifts of hamper and ready made outfits.

Residents have asked me to say a very big thank you for making it feel like EID, especially as not only do they feel isolated from family but at this crisis time they were lost as to how to celebrate EID.

But due to your generous donation, they were not able to make a traditional meal to celebrate EID but also wear special new clothes and put henna on.”
