Refuge is a charity that has profoundly impacted my life, and it holds a special place in my heart. They provided invaluable support during my time of need, and now I am committed to raising money and awareness for this incredible cause.

Did you know that one in four women will experience domestic abuse at some point in their lifetime? Tragically, on average, one woman is killed every five days in England and Wales by a current or former partner.

Refuge stands as the largest single provider of specialist services to survivors of domestic, sexual, and gender-based abuse. Their freephone, 24-hour National Domestic Abuse Helpline serves as the crucial first step for women seeking to escape abusive situations.

As we celebrate this special occasion together, I invite you to join me in making a difference. By kindly sponsoring me today with a donation towards my target of £50 or more, you are helping to save and change the lives of thousands of women and their children who rely on Refuge's vital services.

Thank you for your generosity and support.
