Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I am raising funds for a charity that do some amazing work - CHILD VICTIMS OF CRIME.  Please read on for more details. I hope that with your sponsorship, and a great charity in mind, it will help me to get across that finish line!  Its going to be tough. I've not done as much training as I had hoped for, but I WILL finish the marathon even if I have to crawl it! 

Embrace CVOC is the national charity for child victims of crime. Established since 1993, it's aim is to provide practical and emotional support for any young victim up to the age of 18 years who has been a victim of, or traumatised by any criminal offence committed in the UK. 

The charity receives referrals from police forces across the country seeking support for children whose lives have been shattered by crimes such as violence, abuse and murder, and also works proactively to provide educational materials and initiatives that help to reduce the statistics of children becoming a victim of crime in the first place. 

The awards that Embrace CVOC offers to child victims of crime are assessed on an individual basis to best meet the needs of the child, whether it be a small treat in the form of a gift voucher to simply put a smile on their face or replace a stolen item, or an experience day activity, theme park vouchers, a UK Family break, bespoke counselling, or in the most serious of cases, a flagship life changing holiday to DisneyLand Paris or DisneyWorld Florida.

EMBRACE CVOC are recognised by ACPO as the only national police children's charity and have been established for 20 years, however, they are still relatively unknown in forces and do not receive any government or public sector funding.
