We’re open!
We are now open again after our holiday closedown period. We are back to our normal hours; 9:30am to 4:00pm Monday to Friday. We hope you had a lovely and relaxing break!
Holiday Closedown Period
Kia ora all,
as in previous years, we will be closing for the holiday period in order to give our staff a well deserved break after a very long year!
We will be closing on Monday, the 21st of December, and returning to the office as normal on Monday, the 11th of January 2021.
If you need support over this time, please call the Wellington Sexual Abuse HELP Crisis line (a 24 hour service) on: 04 801 6655 and push ‘0’ at the menu.
Wishing you all a wonderful, restful holiday period 🙂

Important 2020 Annual Appeal Update
In light of the COVID-19 pandemic and public health advice, we are erring on the side of caution and acting to minimise the risk to both our staff and our volunteers by postponing the street collection portion of our Annual Appeal.
Our first priority is to our clients, many of whom are vulnerable and at increased risk; and we have made this decision in order to ensure our team is able to continue supporting our clients in their healing process.
We will still go ahead with an online appeal for donations, along with Change from your Chair workplace collections and any fundraisers which have been organised on our behalf.
We encourage you to please donate, ask your friends to donate and to share our posts on social media!
Please fill out the form linked below if you would like to:
– Bring ‘Change from your Chair’ to your workplace
– Run a fundraiser during our Appeal Week
More information about these initiatives is below.
You’ll hear from us ASAP to confirm the details of your fundraiser or ‘Change from your Chair’. Please feel free to get in touch with our Annual Appeal team at wrcappeal@gmail.com if you have any queries.
Thank you for your support!
