Salcare Escape Family
Support Service
Escape is a domestic abuse support service supporting victims of domestic abuse which is open to all genders from all communities.
Practical Support Services
We provide practical support packages for families and individuals having to move and build a new home including black and white goods, household furniture, and the little things we all like to make a house a home and are always happy to collect donated items to help us help others. We also run a Foodbank for families and individuals on Tuesdays and Fridays, from 10:00 to 1:00

Welcome to Salcare
Salcare is a charity – a ‘one-stop shop’ providing support for the people of Amber Valley and Erewash. We have been around since 1977 and we feel like part of the Heanor community and we know that is how people feel about us.
We help anyone in need, whether they have been referred to us by organisations such as social services, the police, domestic abuse services or job centres. It doesn’t matter if you are outside the Amber Valley/Erewash boundaries – if you need help we will help you!
The benefit of having all the information as well as aid and assistance in one place is to be able to make sure that people who require support of any kind can be helped to make safer choices for themselves and their families.
