My story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
My new year's resolution is to run a half marathon & raise some money for a local charity with which I have worked closely as a GP.I have been very impressed with the care they provide .
I will be running to raise money for Rise domestic abuse services in Sussex.
It is hard to imagine that 1 in 4 women will experience abuse at some point in their lifetimes. Many of these women will have children, 90% of whom will be in the same or next room when the abuse occurs.
Domestic abuse has a higher rate of repeat victimisation than any other crime. On average a woman will be attacked 35 times before she reports the abuse, over half of all rape is committed by a partner or ex-partner and domestic abuse is the single highest cause of homicide in women in the UK.
Domestic abuse doesn’t affect only heterosexual women - men and those in same-sex relationships can also be victims of violence in the home. These are national figures but they translate locally to the Rise Helpline handling nearly 3000 calls last year.
As well as crisis accommodation in two refuges, Rise also offers crisis appointments, helpline, counselling, housing, legal and financial advice, solicitors’ appointments, support groups, play therapy and 1-to-1 support. It costs over £3100 every day to keep these vital, life saving services available for local families, so every penny you can spare will help keep safe some of the most vulnerable in our community.
As I have never run more than 10k before I am pushing myself to run a half-marathon.I need all the support I can get with my training!
So thank you for your support.
