This February, I will make my steps matter by walking 56 Miles for Refuge. On any given day, Refuge supports thousands of women and their children. Just £15 could provide essentials for a woman arriving at a refuge.

Most of us, thankfully, will never need the direct support of Refuge - but we all know someone who at some point in their life has been vulnerable to violence, coercion or bullying in their own home and, let’s face it, the problem is not getting better.

Many arrive with little more than the clothes they are wearing. Your donation could provide essentials like toiletries and food to help a woman through her first night. Every £1 makes a difference. Thank you!
