If you have a hearing or speech difficulty, you can call us using a text relay service such as Relay UK. You can also contact us through our 24/7 live web chat service or by email.

Complaints

We aim to provide a high-quality service. If we fail to do this, it is important that we know about it. This will enable us not only to deal with the specific problem, but also help us to improve our quality of service.

If you weren’t happy with your experience, you can speak to a call handler on the helpline by phone, email or web chat. They may be able to resolve it with an explanation or apology. If you aren’t satisfied with their response, you can be referred to the Helpline Manager.

If you remain dissatisfied, or do not want to communicate or discuss the matter with the staff member directly responsible for the service, then a complaint can be made by email to helpline@sdafmh.org.uk marked for the attention of the Helpline Manager. If your complaint relates to the Helpline Manager, you can contact Scottish Women’s Aid.
