Regenerate is a registered charity that assists people who are re-establishing a home after experiencing domestic abuse and homelessness.
Regenerate provides practical, material support to families rebuilding after domestic and family violence.
Through partnerships with community services, we furnish homes and provide essentials at two critical moments: when someone enters crisis accommodation, and when they move into longer-term housing.
Everything is brand new, purchased with each family in mind—because dignity is in the details.
In a crisis, leaving quickly is the priority—not packing. Our Essentials packs provide brand new linen, pillows, toiletries, and comfort items on arrival at emergency accommodation. Everything is new, because dignity matters from day one

It has been wonderful to witness the joy and excitement being felt by families as they move into their new homes.
One mum who moved in just last week said the family's first night was the first time her son had ever slept through the night. She compared the apartment to sleeping on a cloud, because it was so quiet and comfortable. She was so thankful for all of the household items provided in her new home, including the additional dinosaur gift put aside for her to give to her son for his birthday.
Another new mum was brought to tears when she was told the household items in her new home were donated and hers to keep. She was so blown away that she would be offered such kindness.
Securing a new home is a hard-won milestone. We provide quality furniture, appliances, and homewares—everything needed to turn an empty house into a safe, comfortable home. All items are brand new, purchased with each family in mind.

Regenerate is a registered charity that assists people who are re-establishing a home after experiencing domestic abuse and homelessness.
Through our partnership with agencies that provide housing services and crisis accommodation, we provide survivors of domestic abuse with furniture, whitegoods, and homewares so that they can live comfortably without the financial and mental burden of furnishing a home. We also provide care packages to domestic abuse survivors entering crisis accommodation.
We recognise that many domestic abuse survivors flee their homes with few possessions. They often enter emergency accommodation or crisis housing without the day to day essentials. We provide care packages on their arrival which include brand new linen, pillows and toiletries.
Often domestic abuse survivors move into housing with only the items that they can carry. We provide the furnishings, electrical and home goods that they require to create a safe and comfortable home for themselves and their families.

Children often leave behind their favourite toys and games when entering emergency accommodation or crisis housing. We aim to create moments of joy, inclusion and connection for the children and parents, with age appropriate, trauma informed resources.
