Welcome to Treasures Foundation
Treasures Foundation provides safe accommodation in East London and specialist support to women with histories of drug abuse and offending.
We work alongside women to enable them to recover, build healthy relationships, learn new skills, reach their full potential and go on to lead fulfilling and independent lives. Our services
Our Vision
Our vision is for a society where vulnerable women with histories of substance misuse and offending, have the opportunity to heal and lead healthy and productive lives.
We recognise that each woman has an intrinsic value as a unique individual and we are committed to enabling her to realise this and reach her full potential.
We work towards breaking the cycle of addiction/offending behaviour amongst our women, many of whom have also experienced sexual, physical and emotional trauma. This not only results in better health outcomes, but also positively impacts the wider community through a reduction in crime, antisocial behaviour and homelessness.
We believe that in a homely and loving environment, and with the willingness of abstinence from drugs and alcohol, the trauma will reveal itself and then the healing can take place.
What we do
We offer a safe and supportive home and tailored specialist support to any woman with complex needs, who wants help. Our home in East London is one of very few that provides female-only support, delivers drug/alcohol abstinence work and caters for any age.
We also support women in the community via a range of outreach activities, including facilitating meetings, group sessions and giving talks in prisons and other settings.
Our services are peer-led and delivered by staff and volunteers with lived experience, which offers hope and inspiration to our beneficiaries and makes everything we do accessible, relevant and successful. Make a referral
