January Walking Challenge

Sarah Stephenson is raising money for My Sisters Place

January walking challenge

Start the New Year off right. Take on our January challenge by walking a mile a day (approx. 20 mins) to support victims of domestic abuse. Participating will provide vital funds, raise awareness and have a significant impact on those in need.

Story

Domestic abuse statistics are frightening!

* 1 in 4 women experience domestic abuse during their lifetime.

* A domestic abuse related call is made to the police every 30 seconds.

* Women are 3 times more likely to be killed by a partner than by not wearing a seatbelt!

* Women are twice as likely to die at the hands of their partner than from smoke or gas inhalation!

* Between April 2019 and March 2022, on average, at least one woman a week was killed by a male partner/ex-partner

* 62% of children living with DA are directly harmed by the perpetrator.

It can happen to anyone, at any time in their life, regardless of their age, marital status, sexuality or economic background.

No person deserves to be abused and everyone should feel safe in their own home.

Please help me raise much needed funds for this charity to continue their work and reach more people in need of their help.
