Safety
We put dignity, privacy and emotional safety at the centre of every interaction.
About Derbyshire Serenity Foundation
Built from lived understanding, not distance.
We are a community interest company shaped by compassion, practical action and the belief that survivors deserve safety, dignity and a future that feels their own again.
Who we are
A foundation for the part after crisis.
Derbyshire Serenity Foundation supports women and families affected by domestic abuse, financial hardship and social isolation. Our work is gentle, practical and grounded in the realities people face when trying to rebuild their lives.
We focus on the next safe step: essential items, welfare guidance, emotional encouragement, signposting and community connection. The goal is not to speak over survivors, but to walk beside them.
Our values
Softness with backbone.
Practical care
Support has to work in real life, especially when people are under pressure.
Growth
We believe survivors can move beyond survival into confidence, belonging and joy.
Community
Local partnerships make support stronger, warmer and easier to reach.
Our commitment
We are here for lasting change.
Short-term help matters, but people deserve more than survival mode. Our ambition is to help build a Derbyshire where survivors are safe, believed, supported and able to thrive.
