Bronagh Major, Sarah Montgomery and Shannon Ellis have dusted off their walking boots to walk 1 million steps this month as part of the Allstate Virtual 1 Million steps challenge . The Allstate Human Resources and Talent Acquisition team have joined forces to raise funds for Women's Aid Northern Ireland. We are competing with our fellow HR and TA teams, but have joined forces to out-step them all!

Reports of domestic abuse and family violence have increased around the world since social isolation and quarantine measures came into force. Every penny we raise will support Women's Aid to help the women and Children in NI who have experienced domestic abuse or are currently trying to get help. Anyone can experience domestic abuse, it can be physical or invisible, building over a period of time, or a one of attack. No matter how it looks, no one should have to deal with it alone. We want to help women's aid share their message 'Your not alone, together we can get you free'.

You can get support through Women's Aid via their website https://www.womensaidni.org/ or by contacting their helpline 028 9024 9041

We understand times are tough for many, but if you could support us by giving anything you can we would truly appreciate it. It makes the blisters and sore legs mean something more too!

Thank you,

Bronagh, Sarah and Shannon.
