I’m running the Ibiza Marathon for Refuge

Sarah Cooper is raising money for Refuge

The Ibiza Marathon · 12 April 2025

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

In the U.K.:

🛑 2 women a week are killed by a current or former partner

🛑 1 in 4 women will experience domestic abuse in their life time

🛑 90% of domestic abuse in a family household happens in the presence of a child

🛑 And every 30 seconds the police receive a call relating to domestic abuse

❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌

Just a few of the heartbreaking facts around domestic abuse of women and children in the U.K.

As a woman and now a mum of two little girls these chill me to the core

🏃🏻‍♀️ The Ibiza Marathon will be my 5th marathon - I said I’d never do another…. But here we are 😆

And I am so happy to be able to support the incredible work that Refuge do, by doing so

My goal is to raise £2000

£52 provides safe accommodation for 1 night for a woman and her child

🥰 With your help - we can help them provide over 38 nights 🥰

Thank you for all your support - big and small - every single penny makes a difference
