Story
We are experiencing an epidemic of violence against women.
Physical. Emotional. Sexual. Economic. Digital.
1.6 million women suffered domestic abuse last year in England & Wales.
2 women are killed by their partner of ex-partner every week in England & Wales.
Every 30 seconds the police receive a call relating to domestic abuse.
This cannot continue.
M&C Saatchi World Services have partnered with Women's Aid. We're providing pro-bono professional support and fundraising for this essential cause.
Your donation will enable Women's Aid to continue their incredible work, fighting to eliminate domestic abuse and striving to creative a world where every woman and child is safe.
Women's Aid do incredible work across 4 key areas:
- Providing frontline support including emergency accommodation
- Providing direct support and resources to victims/survivors
- Campaigning and lobbying for legislative changes
- Delivering training and consultancy to government, local authorities and organisations
Women's Aid help victims/survivors of domestic abuse, the majority of whom are women. They also support children who have been victims of abuse or impacted by the abuse of their caregiver.
Domestic abuse affects so many women. It remains largely a hidden crime and most seek Women's Aid's support in total confidence. By supporting Women's Aid we might be helping a friend, a neighbour, a colleague, a sister, or even ourselves. Because no one ever images needing Women's Aid's support, but so many women have been, or will be, supported by this incredible organisation at some point in our lives.
