SIGN UP TO JOIN OUR SPONSORED WALK ON THE 10TH OCTOBER 2024.
GET INVOLVED
Register to join our sponsored walk on the 10th October 2024. The walk is fully accessible and interactive, welcoming everyone including children to join us in our mission. Together we aim to start conversations, provoke critical thinking, and provide a safe community for growth and healing. More information on the event can be found below!
The idea of this walk is to create a space where people can open conversations about red flags and micro aggressions that often lead to more significant and serious acts of domestic abuse.
It is the hope that by starting these conversations and sharing experiences we can raise awareness of the early signs and help people feel empowered to speak to friends and family without feeling like these micro aggressions are something that they're over reacting about. The aim of the walk is to be educational and to help people help themselves in domestic abuse situations. It is our aim to help people talk about and report behaviours, so that ultimately we can start grappling with the situation that affects one in four.
