Did you know that every five days a woman is killed by her (current or former) partner? I find this statistic to be abhorrent and as this is a cause close to my heart, I am doing this sponsored walk to help a woman in need and to help save lives.

I began walking 5 Kilometres a day on November 25th which was the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women and will do my final walk on December 10th: Human Rights Day. Refuge supports women and children across the UK to escape from violent and life threatening situations.

Please donate if you can - even just £1 will make a difference. If you can share this too, raising awareness is an important factor in keeping people safe.
