Incidents of domestic abuse can rise by up to 38% when high-profile matches are played. Charities and police forces actively campaign against this, emphasizing that football or alcohol never excuse abuse, and have increased resources during the tournament.

A massive thank you to our amazing volunteer Maria, who completed an almost impossible challenge today — a sponsored silence for 3 whole hours! Anyone who knows Maria will know just how incredible this achievement really is! Through her dedication, determination, and fantastic support, she raised an outstanding £378.80 for us.

Every penny raised will go towards funding our new safe home, helping us continue creating a secure place for those who need it most.

Maria, you are truly incredible, and we are beyond grateful for everything you’ve done. Thank you for making such a difference! 💙

We’re reaching out with an urgent request as we prepare for our fundraising event in just 4 days! 💜

Would any company be willing to support our charity by donating or helping us with 100 silicone purple wristbands featuring our charity name or slogan:

DNH – Supporting Survivors of Domestic Abuse

These wristbands would help us raise awareness, show support, and make a real difference at our event.

If your business can help, please get in touch — your generosity would mean so much to survivors and families in need.

Please share or tag any companies who may be able to assist. Together, we can make a powerful impact. 💜

What an incredible night! Last night our community came together for a fantastic quiz night and together we raised an amazing £1,837 for our charity. 🥳🥳

Every penny raised will go towards helping the charity purchase a safe home for people escaping domestic abuse — giving them a place of safety, hope and a fresh start.

This truly was a community effort, and we are so grateful to everyone who came along, took part, donated and supported us. Together, we are making a real difference ❤️
Tracey Cooper and everyone who helped her thank you 🙏

WOW we have been blown away by your kindness. 💜

A huge thank you to everyone who has been donating at the Hub. Each week we’ve been filling a big jar with your loose change and contributions.

Today 2 volunteers took it to Tesco to cash it in, and the total came to an incredible £600!

That’s £600 raised simply from people caring and wanting to help others.

Every single pound brings us one brick closer to creating a safe home for people fleeing domestic abuse. A place where families can finally feel safe, supported and able to rebuild their lives.

To everyone who donated, shared our work, or supported us in any way – thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

If you would like to help us keep building towards this safe space, you can:
• Donate spare change at the Hub
• Share this post to spread the word
• Get in touch if you’d like to support or volunteer

Together we really are changing lives.

Thank you for believing in what we’re building. 💜

🌟 Help Us Create a Safe Place for Survivors of Domestic Abuse 🌟

We are raising funds to purchase a property that will provide short-term safe accommodation for people fleeing domestic abuse. This space will give survivors and their children a secure place to stay while longer-term housing and support are arranged.

For many families, leaving an abusive situation means leaving everything behind. Having somewhere safe, warm, and welcoming during that critical time can make all the difference.

💜 Our goal is to create a place where survivors can:
• Feel safe and protected
• Begin to rebuild their lives
• Access support while waiting for permanent accommodation

Every donation, no matter the size, helps bring this project closer to reality.

If you’re unable to donate, you can still help by sharing this post so it reaches more people.

Together, we can help provide safety, dignity, and hope for those who need it most.
