Story

I'm running the Liverpool Marathon on 9th October for Refuge.

Its shocking some of the statistics about Domestic Violence;

· One in four women is abused during her lifetime.

· One in nine is severely physically abused each year.

· Two are killed each week

·On average, a woman is assaulted 35 times before her first call to the police.


Please sponsor me for Refuge, helping raise;

  • £10 could allow a woman to buy her child essential materials for school – many women arrive at Refuge with nothing but the clothes they are wearing and do not have the means to buy the things they need.
  • £50 could fund a session of play therapy for a group of four children, helping them to overcome the trauma of witnessing or experiencing violence.
  • £72 could pay for two days of fun activities for a group of children in our refuges.
  • £75 could fund a local support group session for women who have experienced domestic violence.
  • £96 could pay for a training workshop for 5 women, helping them to enter the employment market and regain their independence.
