Story

Avon is proud to be supporting Refuge, 13 years strong, as part of our Promise to End Gender Based Violence.

Together, were on a mission to raise funds to support Refuge's National Domestic Abuse Helpline. Calls to the Helpline have increased rapidly since the pandemic. For some people, home is not a safe place. Women and children who are experiencing domestic abuse are likely to be spending increasing amounts of time with their perpetrators.

The Achievers team are at the heart of this and together, we can make a difference. Through your support, we can ensure Refuge's Helpline is funded and every woman experiencing domestic abuse is aware of the confidential support available.

It costs £13 for one of the expert team to respond to a contact from a woman fleeing abuse. Donate here to support the vital work of Refuge's National Domestic Abuse Helpline, Avon’s Promise to End Gender Based Violence and The Achiever's fundraising challenge!

*10% of donations will go towards Refuge's support costs
