Story

Crime+Investigation launched its End Abuse Against Women initiative in partnership with Refuge in November 2019. The initiative focussed on educating and fundraising around the cause of domestic abuse and driving awareness of important life-saving support services that Refuge provides across the country.

The second year of partnership with Refuge sees British actress and presenter Kym Marsh fronting #HereForHer, a Crime +Investigation campaign to support victims of domestic abuse.

The #HereForHer campaign aims to let those affected by domestic abuse know there is a community of support available to them, even if they feel like they have nowhere to turn whilst encouraging the public to show their solidarity with them by fundraising the hugely important work Refuge do.

Domestic abuse is a crime, not a private matter. I am #HereForHer; you can be too.

Refuge is the UKs biggest service provider of specialist support to women and children, helping around 6,500 people on any given day. Refuge runs the National Domestic Abuse Helpline a free and confidential 24-hour, nationwide service which supports more than 250 callers a day. Refuge patrons include Dame Helen Mirren, Olivia Colman CBE and Sir Patrick Stewart OBE
