- Halloween Sales Day: In true Vantage style we will be breaking out the Halloween outfits and driving our sales activity through the roof!
- Big Fat Quiz of the Year: Questions ranging from General knowledge to our consultants deepest darkest (Not that dark!) secrets. Nothing is off limits in the big fat quiz of the year!

Womens Aid is a grassroots federation working together to provide life-saving services in England and build a future where domestic abuse is not tolerated.
- 61% of women said that their domestic abuse worsened during the pandemic
- 68% of these said they had no one to turn too during this time.
- With children being out of school more than half (53%) of survivors told us their children had seen more abuse to them.
- 1 in 10 women said that their abuser actively used the lockdown restrictions to prevent them from leaving.
They work to ensure women are believed, know abuse is not their fault and that their experiences have been understood. As a federation of over 180 organisations, they provide almost 300 local lifesaving services to women and children.
