Story
As the World Cup kicks off, millions of us will come together to watch the game.
But behind closed doors, a different story unfolds.
During major football tournaments, reports of domestic abuse rise. In fact, incidents increase by 38% when the England men’s team loses at a major tournament — a statistic we simply cannot accept.*
At Solace, we support thousands of women and children every year with refuge, advice, advocacy, and specialist support to help them rebuild their lives safely.
And during high-profile tournaments, demand for our services grows.
Because abuse doesn’t stop at full time.
Win or lose, survivors still need support.
This summer, stand with women when it matters most
Your donation today can help us be there for women and children when they need us most.
For a limited time, your donation will be doubled. That means if you donate £10, it's turned into £20!

• £10 could help answer a call to our advice line
• £25 could provide essential items for a woman arriving at refuge
• £50 could fund one-to-one support with a specialist worker
• £100 could help keep a woman and her children safe for a night
• £500 could provide a week of refuge for a woman and her children
Every pound you give helps us respond when demand rises.
Whatever the score, women still need your support. Please donate today.
