46 year old woman escaped DV - male stabbed her in the hand - she is now on a disability pension due to nerve damage. He has burned her, controlled her, a lot of emotional abuse. She left several times but had nowhere to go. She has no family and no friends, except one brother who lives interstate but they are not in touch. She is desperate to start a new life but has no means to furnish the apartment she has secured. It is two bedroom, kitchen, lounge, bathroom. This woman is scared and frightened, she is overjoyed that she is now out of harms way, she doesn't know where her partner is, she is very emotional and distraught. She washes her clothes in the shower, has no fridge and she accesses street feeds to keep her going. She has no plates, cutlery, glasses. She has nothing - no bed, furniture, bedding, whitegoods. Any support that can help this woman to establish a new life by herself without violence would be most appreciated.
