I've raised £4000 to help buy Christmas gifts for local women and children who are affected by domestic abuse... help us bring smiles. x
Organised by Smile Sleigh
Story
Having witnessed the horrific impact domestic abuse has on women and children, I wanted to start an initiative to raise awareness of domestic abuse, and make sure that we remember these women and children at Christmas.
Everyone has the right to feel safe and free from fear with the opportunity to laugh, smile and experience love and compassion.
Over the past 6 years Smile Sleigh has given to thousands of families across Surrey, Hampshire and Berkshire, through the following charities:
The You Trust
I Choose Freedom
Berkshire Womens Aid (BWA)
SWS Domestic Abuse Outreach Team
Your Sanctuary
SAHA
These charities offer vital life changing and lifesaving services to women and children desperate to escape from domestic abuse, including refuge, IDVA advisers, outreach teams for women and children, and signposting.
Thousands of brand new unwrapped presents have been given... thanks to YOU!
Smile Sleigh ensures more children are remembered and made to feel special and important by giving them gifts at Christmas. The money you donate goes direct to buying a gift which will be given to them from their Mum, and we also make sure Santa has them high on his priority list xxx
Thank you
Sophie and the Smile Sleigh team
