Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• SAFE Ireland: National federation representing domestic violence services across Ireland, of which regional members like Clare Haven are typically affiliates. SAFE Ireland is the most directly comparable organization in terms of mission and service philosophy, and operates as a coordinating umbrella for services structurally similar to Clare Haven's refuge, helpline, and outreach model.
• Women's Aid Ireland: National domestic violence organization running a national helpline and supporting local affiliated services. Women's Aid Ireland is comparable to Clare Haven because it delivers the same core mix of crisis helpline, refuge-related advocacy, and policy/awareness work, but at a national rather than single-county level.

Regional players

• Sonas Domestic Violence Charity: Dublin-based domestic violence service offering refuge, one-to-one support, court accompaniment, and outreach to women and children. Sonas is comparable to Clare Haven in service scope (refuge plus wraparound support) but serves the greater Dublin region rather than County Clare.
• Adapt House: Limerick-based domestic violence refuge service for women and children. Adapt House mirrors Clare Haven's refuge-plus-support model in a neighbouring Mid-West county, making it the closest geographic peer outside Clare Haven's own catchment.
• Aoibhneas Women's Refuge: Dublin-based women's refuge and domestic violence support service providing emergency accommodation and follow-on support. Aoibhneas is comparable in refuge-centred service delivery but operates in a different region and serves a more urban client base than rural County Clare.
• Mid West Domestic Violence Service: Limerick-based domestic violence service in the Mid-West region. Operates a comparable mix of refuge accommodation, outreach, and support services and is the closest functional peer to Clare Haven at a regional level within the same broader Mid-West catchment.

Broad incumbents

• Refuge (UK): The UK's largest domestic abuse organization, running the National Domestic Abuse Helpline and a national network of refuges. Refuge is broadly comparable as a much larger incumbent operating the same core model (refuge, helpline, advocacy) that Clare Haven delivers at county level.
• Women's Aid (UK): Federation of UK women's aid services running the national survivors' helpline and member organizations. Women's Aid UK is comparable to Clare Haven in service philosophy and member-organization structure, but operates at a national UK scale rather than the single-county Irish scope.
