My story

Dear All,

 

I am going to be running the Great British 10k run on July 8. I am running for Hestia Wansdworth Woman’s Aid and the money raised will be used to support women and children survivors of domestic violence.

Over the past 3 years I have been working with families fleeing domestic violence and I became more aware of the impact of abuse on women and children even after fleeing the perpetrator.  In the majority of families where there are children, and where abuse is being perpetrated, the children will be aware of this, and will often hear it or see it going on. According to the Department of Health, at least 750,000 children a year witness domestic violence. In some cases, the children themselves will suffer physical or sexual abuse from the same perpetrator.

 

If you can donate, I would be very grateful. Let’s help together make a small change in the lives of these brave, strong women and children!

This is my first run of this type, so this will be a challenge! J

 

 

Best wishes & many thanks,

Alina
