Eleni's fundraiser for Refuge

Eleni Wright is raising money for Refuge

Team: CUCFS Models 25/26 for Refuge

I am completing the bridges of London walk- crossing 26 bridges across the Thames and hiking a total of 30.1 miles over two days.

Refuge opened the world’s first refuge in West London in 1971. We support thousands of women & children every day, experiencing domestic and sexual violence, female genital mutilation, forced marriage, stalking, trafficking, prostitution & so-called ‘honour’ based violence.

Story

The Cambridge University Charity Fashion Show is partnering with Refuge this year. All our models have been tasked with raising (at least) £52, the cost of supporting one woman for one night in a shelter. Any and all donations towards this important cause are welcome. We will be raising money in various ways in the lead up to the show. All funds raised, including those from ticket sales, will be going towards Refuge. Please check out our Instagram (@cucfs) for details on upcoming events and further information. Thank you.

One in four women will experience domestic abuse at some point in their lifetime and on average one woman is killed every 5 days in England and Wales by a current or former partner.

Refuge is the largest single provider of specialist services to survivors of domestic, sexual and gender-based abuse and runs the freephone, 24-hour National Domestic Abuse Helpline that provides the first step to women escaping abuse. 

By kindly sponsoring us today you are helping to save and change the lives of thousands of women and their children. Thank you.
