Hello,

My name is Veronika Walker, a proud mum of three wonderful children. I am also the founder of Moments That Matter, an advocacy platform supporting maternal and infant health, inspired by my journey as both a domestic violence survivor and mother of premature twins. Today, I am reaching out to support a cause that is incredibly close to my heart: helping women who have survived domestic abuse and violence.

When I was 20 years old, I met a man who seemed charming, attentive, and perfect. But over time, his true, darker personality began to appear. By then, I found myself trapped in a controlling and toxic relationship.

For years, I experienced constant criticism, isolation from friends, and daily belittling. I was made to feel unworthy, powerless, and incapable. What began as emotional abuse escalated into physical violence. It was a reality that no woman should ever have to endure.

It took me a long time to realise that I deserved better and that I had the strength to leave. After several attempts, I finally escaped that relationship. It took 14 years before I felt ready to share my story openly.

Today, I share my story not from a place of pain, but from strength and responsibility. I deeply empathise with women who are still going through similar experiences. No woman should have to walk this journey alone. Every woman deserves to live a life free from fear, with dignity and strength.

Through Moments That Matter, I am committed to supporting women and families facing moments of fear, trauma, and vulnerability. To date, I have helped raise over £250,000 for charitable causes. This fundraiser continues that commitment.

Domestic abuse does not discriminate. It affects women of every background and circumstance. Recovery requires more than awareness. It requires real support, practical resources, and safe spaces.

That is why I am determined to help as many women as I can and to continue raising awareness about domestic abuse, ensuring survivors know their lives and voices matter.

I am asking you to join me in this mission.

Your donation, no matter the size, can help support women who are rebuilding their lives after abuse. Together, we can provide hope, safety, and a path toward healing.

Please consider donating and sharing this page so we can reach as many people as possible.

Let us stand together and show survivors that they are not alone.

Thank you for your kindness and support.

With gratitude,

Veronika Walker
