Shine is a leading New Zealand provider of specialist domestic abuse services. We help women, children and men get out of the cycle of family violence and give them the chance of a better, happier, safer future.
Helpline
Anyone in New Zealand affected by abuse can call our free phone 0508 744 633 for help 7 days a week, 9am - 11pm. Callers can receive information, support and help with safety planning and referrals to appropriate support services.

We provide short term refuge accommodation in Auckland for women and children who are at risk of further abuse. Families are supported while at the refuge to access needed services and to transition to safe, permanent accommodation. The refuge service can be accessed through our helpline.
