Story

This March, Tenancy Deposit Scheme (TDS) is raising money and awareness for the domestic violence charity, Refuge. Their aim is to highlight the wonderful work of the charity but also to raise awareness of the abuse that happens in homes throughout the UK every day. The main goal of March in March is for all involved to collectively walk the perimeter of the UK in steps, from the start to the end of March. On any given day Refuge supports more than 6,000 people, helping them to overcome many different forms of violence and abuse. During Covid-19, the charity reported a 700% increase in calls in a single day and a massive 950% increase in visits to their website during lockdown, compared to pre-Covid-19. “After what has been a tough year for so many people, we wanted to give back and help those in need. The work and values of everyone involved with Refuge directly reflect ours here at TDS. No-one should ever live in fear of violence or abuse. We’re hoping others in the property industry will join us in raising funds for the charity too,” said Debbie Davies, Head of Sales and Marketing at TDS.
