Lighthouse

Our Mission

The Lighthouse Hub exists to help close a critical gap in safety support for people experiencing domestic and family violence, stalking and technology-facilitated abuse.

Many victim-survivors need practical safety technologies, such as security cameras, dash cameras, or checks for tracking devices, but the cost of accessing these tools can place them out of reach at the very time they are most needed.

We support established frontline organisations by providing funding assistance for safety technologies that help protect victim-survivors, document concerning behaviour and respond to technology-facilitated abuse.

We do not provide direct crisis support, counselling, legal advice or case management. Instead, we work alongside partner organisations to strengthen the practical support available to the people they assist.

Our vision is a community where safety is not limited by someone’s financial circumstances.

Our Initiatives

We provide support funding to primary organisations for security and surveillance technologies for victim survivors of domestic violence and stalking. 

Safety Technology Support

Shining a light on safety technology access

Our initiatives support victim-survivors by making practical safety technologies more accessible when they are needed most. By working through established frontline organisations, we help fund tools that can improve safety, support documentation of concerning behaviour, and assist people impacted by domestic and family violence, stalking and technology-facilitated abuse.

Education and Awareness

Shining a light on hidden forms of abuse

We raise awareness of stalking, domestic and family violence, and technology-facilitated abuse by sharing practical information about safety technologies, digital evidence, tracking devices and the barriers victim-survivors face when seeking help.

Our aim is to help communities, frontline services and decision-makers better understand how technology can be misused — and how it can also be used to support safety, protection and evidence-gathering.

Advocacy for Safety Technologies

Shining a light on barriers to evidence, protection and accountability

We advocate for stronger responses to stalking and technology-facilitated abuse, including clearer police pathways, better access to digital evidence, and greater accountability from technology companies.

We believe safety should not be delayed because evidence is difficult to trace, internationally hosted or dependent on inconsistent company policies.

Why the Lighthouse Hub Exists - The Founder's Story

 

The Lighthouse Hub was founded from lived experience of domestic and family violence, stalking and technology-facilitated abuse.

There was a period in my life when safety no longer felt simple. I began receiving strange messages and account alerts. Some messages suggested my location was known. My online accounts were being targeted. I found myself checking my phone, my car, my home and my surroundings, trying to understand how someone could know where I had been.

It is difficult to explain what that does to your sense of safety.

You stop moving through the world normally. You start scanning, questioning and checking everything. You wonder whether your phone is safe. Whether your car is safe. Whether your home is safe. Whether your children are safe.

My daughter felt that fear too.

As a parent, that was one of the hardest parts. It is one thing to feel afraid yourself. It is another thing entirely to see your child feel unsafe and to feel helpless in trying to protect them.

Eventually, a tracking device was located in my vehicle.

That experience made something very clear to me: technology-facilitated abuse does not just create fear. It creates an evidence problem, a safety problem and a funding problem.

I was able to install cameras around my home, and that made a real difference. They helped restore some sense of safety. They helped me feel like I had a way to see what was happening around me and take practical steps to protect my family.

But I could not afford everything that was needed. Dash cameras, vehicle checks, device checks and other safety technologies can be expensive. At the very time I needed practical safety tools, cost became another barrier.

My support worker tried to find funding for dash cameras. But because it could not be proved who was responsible, I did not meet the requirements for victim support funding. Even then, I was told there could be a wait of up to 12 months.

That does not help when safety is needed now.

This is the gap The Lighthouse Hub was created to help fill.

Victim-survivors are often expected to provide evidence of stalking, surveillance or technology-facilitated abuse before meaningful action can be taken. But the tools that may help detect, document or respond to that behaviour are often expensive and difficult to access.

The Lighthouse Hub works with established frontline organisations to help fund practical safety technologies for the people they support. This may include home security cameras, dash cameras, vehicle checks and device checks.

We are not a crisis service. We do not provide counselling, legal advice or case management. Our role is to support the organisations already working directly with victim-survivors by helping make safety technology more accessible when cost would otherwise stand in the way.

The Lighthouse Hub exists because safety should not depend on whether someone can afford the tools that may help protect them.

It exists because a 12-month wait does not help someone who feels unsafe today.

And it exists to help light the way when safety feels out of reach.
