What our donation will help fund
We help people create positive, happy and safe relationships, free from abuse by providing education and guidance in schools, workplaces and other organisations. Many people, especially in younger age groups, do not understand what a healthy relationship is. Often, those in abusive relationships have simply accepted that the issues they face on a day-to-day basis are normal. Thanks to the funding from the Movement for Good campaign, we are able to continue to provide schools with free workshops on how to build healthy relationships, including exercises on spotting the signs of an unhealthy relationship and the warning signs. Identifying the Key Risk Indicators is crucial to early intervention. However, there is evidence to suggest that with guidance, education and raising awareness of unacceptable behaviours by perpetrators, it is possible to change attitudes and help ensure that more people can escape abusive relationships.
The charity wants to prevent other victims and families having to go through what Hollie and her family had to go through, and turn Hollie’s tragedy into something positive by providing a safer future for all.
