London Marathon 2021 · 3 October 2021 ·
Thanks for your support with my London Marathon fundraising challenge.
My page donations will be sent direct to the charity in a fast and secure way. Its efficient, saves time and cuts costs for the charity. Thanks everyone.
I am supporting Refuge and their life- changing work by pledging to raise £2000. A UK based charity, Refuge provide services for women and children who have experienced domestic violence; protect women by advocating for a strong criminal justice response to perpetrators; and prevent future violence through education, training and awareness-raising.
With 2 women in the UK losing their lives each week from violence inflicted on them by a partner, Refuge are under continuous pressure to provide support and relief to thousands of survivors, many of whom are still in danger.
Here are just a few of the many ways your donations/ sponsorship could help:
£75 could pay for a local support group for women who are still living with DV, and want to find out about their options.
£10 could pay for an emergency parcel for women and children who first arrive at a Refuge centre, having just fled DV. The parcel would include: An initial assessment from staff, food, clothes, toiletries, nappies etc.
Refuge rely heavily on sponsorship and events such as London, so thanks for your contributions, however big or small. I know this charity provide crucial support for women and their children who, at some point, have felt as though they have no way out.
