Every day in October I will be doing 137 squats to raise money and awareness of violence against women and for the amazing work that Action Aid do.

Why 137?

One in three women will experience some form of violence in their lifetime, and globally 137 women are killed per day by a partner, family member or friend.

But across the world, women and girls are fighting to claim their rights and change the systems and beliefs that make violence acceptable. ActionAid is working with communities to prevent and respond to violence and create long-term change. Your support could help survivors seek justice and fund women's groups who train parents, teachers, local police and legal advisors to recognise the signs of violence and report it.

ActionAid is an international charity that works with women and girls living in poverty. Their dedicated local staff are changing the world with women and girls. They are ending violence and fighting poverty so that all women, everywhere, can create the future they want. To find out more about their work, please visit www.actionaid.org.uk

Your donation will be sent directly to ActionAid in a fast and secure way. Thank you for your incredible support.
