WAVE

* Material is added to this site on a regular basis, information on this page may change.

WAVE is a grass roots cross community organisation established in 1991 to provide support and care to people bereaved of a spouse as a result of violence in Northern Ireland. Hence the original name 'Widows Against Violence Empower'. It was expanded later to incorporate the needs of young people/children and anyone traumatised through the "Troubles". Today the overall aim of WAVE is to offer care and support to anyone bereaved or traumatised through the violence, irrespective of religious, cultural or political belief.
