The Halo Project
National support. Proven impact. Real change.
The Halo Project is our flagship initiative and the foundation of our work. Established over a decade ago, it has grown into a nationally recognised programme supporting individuals facing honour-based abuse, forced marriage, and related forms of hidden harm.
Built on years of frontline experience, the Halo Project combines specialist advocacy, practical support, and partnership working to help people find safety, regain control, and rebuild their lives.
Who the Halo Project supports
Support is survivor-led, confidential, and culturally informed. We meet people where they are and respond to each situation with care, discretion, and respect.
Specialist, survivor-centred support that prioritises safety
We provide one-to-one advocacy tailored to each individual’s circumstances. This includes safety planning, emotional support, and practical guidance through complex systems.
Our team responds to high-risk situations, working quickly and carefully to prioritise safety and wellbeing.
We support frontline professionals across the UK with guidance, consultation, and training to improve identification, responses, and safeguarding practice.
Support may include:
How support works
Individuals or professionals get in touch for advice or support.
We assess risk and immediate needs.
Advocacy, safety planning, and tailored interventions.
Support with longer-term options and referrals where appropriate.
OUR IMPACT
Over the years, the Halo Project has…
Behind every statistic is a person whose life has changed because someone listened, acted, and stayed alongside them.
The support I received helped me feel safe for the first time in years. I didn’t feel judged or rushed, just understood.
Why the Halo Project matters
Honour-based abuse and forced marriage often remain hidden due to fear, stigma, and isolation. The Halo Project exists to ensure that no one faces these harms alone.
Our longevity, expertise, and survivor-centred approach mean we are trusted by individuals, communities, and professionals nationwide.
Get help or make a referral
If you or someone you know needs support, or if you are a professional seeking advice.
You don’t have to be sure. You just have to reach out.
