Raising money for survivors of sexual abuse and assault , 22 March 2021
Fundraising for First Light is fun and a great way to help create a South West where everyone can live free from violence and abuse. However you decide to raise funds, by supporting First Light you too can help change lives.

Story

First Light is a charity that supports people affected by domestic abuse and sexual violence in Cornwall, Devon and Wiltshire. Every year they help support thousands of people to lead safer lives and move towards a positive future free from violence and abuse. 

I want to raise awareness for this charity and this issue in order to spread a very important message that isn’t talked about enough. I feel that this charity tackles a very significant issue and helps the people who really need it. People need to know that there is help, such as this, out there. I want to help people and stop them from suffering in silence. Any of us could be victims one day, I want to emphasise that there is help out there and help to stop the taboo around this silent battle that so many of us face. 

I hope to raise £300.00 for this cause. THE PAINTING HAS ALREADY BEEN WON. But please continue to donate if you want to. 

Thank you so much!!
