This February, The HPFT Safeguarding Team will be putting our walking shoes on to make our steps matter by walking 56 Miles for Refuge.

Supporting our staff in tackling Domestic Abuse is one of our priorities as a Safeguarding Team and we are all passionate about ensuring that HPFT is a trust where staff feel confident and equipped in recognizing and responding to concerns and disclosures.

As the charity say "On any given day, Refuge supports thousands of women and their children. Just £15 could provide essentials for a woman arriving at a refuge.

Many arrive with little more than the clothes they are wearing. Your donation could provide essentials like toiletries and food to help a woman through her first night.

Every £1 makes a difference. Thank you!"
