SOAR HUB

Picture
What is SOAR?
  1. SOAR is a peer-support service supporting women and children survivors of domestic violence who are trying to restart their lives in the community. The service is led by qualified and trained survivors. SOAR offers a range of services, programmes, projects and activities. It runs a support group with weekly social, creative and learning group activities.
 
Where is SOAR based now?
  1. SOAR is based in an office at the Antida Family Services Centre, in Tarxien. Since its launch 7 years ago, SOAR has grown significantly from a support group to a multi-service unit within the St Jeanne Antide Foundation. Similarly, it has outgrown its office, spreading out into other spaces within the Centre. This comes with many limitations, one of them being the hours available to access these shared areas with other services at the Centre.  Another limitation is the risk factor: Ċentru Antida has an open door policy for drop-in cases from the community. SOAR would ideally have a closed door policy with extra security measures in place to keep those inside safe from any intruders who may have stalked the survivor. It would ideally have spaces designed for its specific purpose.
 
What is The SOAR Survivors’ Hub?
The SOAR Survivors’ Hub is a townhouse set in the heart of the village of Tarxien. It is envisaged to become a safe, secure, nurturing space designed to fit the needs of a community of survivors and their children. The Hub will be similar to a day centre, open during daytime and evening hours, with access to the range of services and activities offered by SOAR.
SOAR will be able to extend and grow its services, offering a pop-up office and library for use by survivors to research, study or photocopy and print. It will also offer patches of the garden for women and children to cultivate their own organic produce. The Hub will have a space for a multimedia and multi-sensory room, opening up the doors to a new range of services that will include on-site training, well-being sessions (yoga, meditation, mindfulness etc.) and the occasional movie night. The garden will include a butterfly garden as an outdoor space for well-being activities and an herb garden.
The Hub will also house the SOAR offices, a kitchen to cook and serve Saturday lunch and a consultation room that can be booked by practitioners to meet survivors. Another section of the Hub will be used by Meraki Soaps, SOAR’s social enterprise. Meraki Soaps is an initiative that is contributing to the sustainability of the Creative Peer-mentoring Programme.

The Hub needs extensive renovation and the building of an extension before SOAR can move its services to it.
