About us
Advance is an award-winning and innovative women-only organisation, established in 1998, providing emotional and practical support to women and girls survivors of domestic abuse and supporting women with short-term sentences to reduce offending. We believe in empowering women and girls to lead safe, non-violent, equal lives so that they can flourish and contribute to the community.
We are a community-based organisation who lead in best practice approaches to supporting women in their local community. We achieve this by being available to meet and support women in local settings and at our women’s centres, and by working in close partnership with other agencies.

Ensuring the safeguarding of children and maintaining confidentiality at all times are central to the role, alongside working within relevant policies and procedures.

-
Collaborate with professionals across health, education, and social care to provide a truly joined-up approach to family support.
Why Join Us?

Be part of a warm, committed, and supportive team who share your passion for making a difference.
-
Receive a thorough induction, work shadowing, and ongoing training to help you succeed.

The Cathedral relies on a small but dedicated team to be inclusive and welcoming to all.
Our Vision & Values
Southwark Cathedral’s original foundation was a Priory with a community that lived by the rule of St Augustine, written around 400 AD. Augustine begins his rule with the words, ‘Before all else, love God and then your neighbour, because these are the chief commandments given to us’. Our renewed vision of ‘making space for love: with Heart, Mind and Soul, finds its inspiration in our spiritual heritage.

Objective 1: Rooted in Christian faith - to be a place of hospitality, exploration, imagination and kindness. We will be a Cathedral that rejoices in making space for all people to flourish and grow in heart, mind and soul.
Objective 2: Heart - to keep the heart healthy in London by a commitment to social justice, upholding the human dignity of all people and of every age.
Objective 3: Mind - to help people both live faithfully and think critically, being a place of learning and discovery.

Safer Futures
The Safer Futures programme supports people as they rebuild their lives following some of the most challenging experiences in life. This includes people navigating the criminal justice system, survivors of domestic abuse, and people seeking refuge and safety in the UK through migration. The foundation fund work that provides direct support, we also back work that challenges and improves the systems surrounding them, systems that too often fail to provide stability, dignity or security.
