Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Charity of Year Challenge

Fortalice is a Bolton based organisation providing front line services including a 22 flat refuge, training and group work for women, families, children and young people who are, or have been, affected by domestic abuse and violence. We supported approx 2,200 individuals across Bolton last year

Story

National statistics tell us that:

- 750,000 children a year witness DAV

- ¾ of those on the 'at risk' register live in homes with DAV

- 66% of high risk victims have children

- 16 to 19 years most prominent age range for partner abuse

This is why our Charity of the Year for Go North West's Bolton depot is Fortalice, chosen by our employees. For every employee who completes a challenge, we will donate £35 (the price of 1 child counselling session) to the charity.

Fortalice is a Bolton‑based domestic abuse charity providing lifesaving frontline support to women, children and young people affected by domestic abuse. If you need to get in contact with Fortalice, please call their 24-hours phone line - 01204 701 846.
