Abstract: 
Preston Women's Refuge has won a grant which will allow it to help female immigrants trapped in violent marriages.
The refuge is already supporting two such women and has had 30 phone calls from other immigrants in just four weeks.

The free and confidential service, offered in English, Gujarati, Punjabi and Urdu, is thought to be the first service of its kind offered by a Women's Aid organisation.
