❤️ OUR SAFE HOUSE FUNDRAISING UPDATE! WE ARE GETTING CLOSER! ❤️

We have some incredible news to share with you all! 🏡❤️

Thanks to the generosity of our amazing supporters, the kindness of our community, your donations, fundraising efforts, and so much hard work from everyone involved, Dawn’s New Horizon has raised almost £115,000 towards our Safe House Project! 🥹❤️

Let that sink in for a moment… ALMOST £115,000! 🤯❤️

Our target is £145,000 to purchase a two-bedroom property that will provide a safe place for individuals and families fleeing domestic abuse.

We are now getting closer than ever to making this dream a reality, and we cannot thank you all enough for helping us get this far. Every donation, every fundraising event, every item donated, every share of our posts, and every person who has supported us has helped bring us one step closer. ❤️

BUT WE STILL NEED YOUR HELP! ❤️

Behind this fundraising target are real people who desperately need somewhere safe to go when leaving domestic abuse.

Our vision is to provide temporary, safe accommodation where families can stay together, including their children and beloved pets. We want to help remove some of the barriers people face when fleeing abuse and give them somewhere safe to begin rebuilding their lives.

For some families, finding somewhere safe to stay can be incredibly difficult. We want to help change that.

🏡 OUR TARGET: £145,000
❤️ RAISED SO FAR: ALMOST £115,000
🙏 WE NEED JUST OVER £30,000 MORE!

We are so close, but we cannot do this alone.

If you can donate, no matter how small the amount, you will be helping us move closer to purchasing this property. If you cannot donate, please consider sharing this post with your friends, family, local businesses, and anyone who may be able to help.

You never know who might see it and help us reach our goal. ❤️

To everyone who has donated, fundraised, supported us, encouraged us, and believed in our vision, THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS. ❤️

You are helping us turn hope into something real.

Let’s keep going, Norwich! Let’s get this safe house purchased and make a difference to the lives of those who need us most. 🏡❤️

TOGETHER, WE CAN HELP PROVIDE SAFETY, HOPE AND A NEW BEGINNING.

🎄❤️ IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN! ❤️🎄

As Christmas approaches, we are once again reaching out to our wonderful community to ask for your kindness, generosity and support. 🎁✨

Christmas is a magical time for many, but we also know that it can be an incredibly difficult and challenging time for families who are struggling, those facing financial hardship, and children and families who have fled domestic abuse.

💖 This Christmas, we want to help make a difference.

We are asking for donations to help support our local schools, our clients, and the children and families who have had to flee domestic abuse and rebuild their lives.

Every donation, no matter how big or small, can make a real difference. Whether it’s a gift for a child, a donation of essential items, or a contribution to help a family in need, every act of kindness helps bring a little comfort, hope and happiness to those who need it most. 🎁❤️

✨ Together, we can help make Christmas a little brighter for those who need it most.

If you are able to donate or support our appeal in any way, we would be incredibly grateful. And if you can’t donate, simply sharing our post can help us reach more people who may be able to help.

Let’s come together as a community and spread a little extra love, kindness and Christmas magic this year. 🎄🤗

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your continued kindness, support and generosity. Every little bit really does make a difference. ❤️

🎁❤️ Because every child deserves to feel loved, every family deserves support, and everyone deserves a little hope at Christmas. ❤️🎁

Dawn’s New Horizon provides a safe, welcoming space where people can access therapy, practical support, advice, and a friendly face when they need it most.

Just this week, they have provided therapy to 22 people, supported 6 people with essential items to help them settle into new, safe accommodation, and provided emergency support to 2 people, including clothing and toiletries. These individuals are now safe and supported.
We have also been there for people who have struggled to access help elsewhere else, making sure they are not left feeling alone.

At the Hub, Dawn’s New Horizon works hard to keep prices as low as possible to help local people with the rising cost of everyday living. It has also become a real community hub—a happy, welcoming place where people can pop in for a chat, and some company. For many people, this has made a huge difference in reducing loneliness and isolation.

What you don’t always see is the work happening behind the scenes. The team are constantly fundraising, providing therapy and support, planning for the future, and looking at new ways they can reach and help even more people in the community.

Dawn’s New Horizon doesn’t just offer a service—it offers a safe place, a listening ear, practical help and hope when people need it most.

This is a difficult subject for us to talk about, but one we cannot stay silent about.

As a charity supporting survivors of domestic abuse, we sadly know that the impact of abuse can reach far beyond what is visible. Fear, isolation, control, trauma and the loss of hope can leave people feeling that there is no way out.

We have lost clients to su***de, and every loss stays with us. Behind every statistic is a person — someone’s friend, someone’s family member, someone who deserved safety, support and a future free from abuse. 💔

During Su***de Awareness Week, we want to remind anyone living with domestic abuse that you are not the abuse you have experienced, and you are not alone.

You don’t have to have everything figured out. You don’t have to leave today. You don’t have to cope alone.

💜 Talk to someone you trust.
💜 Reach out to a specialist support service.
💜 Tell someone if you’re struggling.
💜 Keep going, one day at a time.

And for those supporting a survivor: listen, believe them, and remind them that their life matters.

We remember those we have lost, we stand alongside those who are still fighting, and we will continue working towards a world where everyone can live free from abuse, fear and hopelessness.

There is support. There is hope. Your life matters. 💜

If you or someone you know is in immediate danger or at risk of su***de, please contact emergency services. In the UK, Samaritans can be contacted free on 116 123, day or night

🎯 WE’VE REACHED 60% OF OUR TARGET! 🎯

Thanks to incredible fundraising, generous contributions, support from local companies, and the amazing generosity of the public, we are getting closer and closer to our goal of purchasing a safe space for survivors of domestic abuse. 💜

We have now reached an incredible 60% of our target, with just 40% left to go! 🙌

We are getting there, and we simply couldn’t do this without the support of our wonderful community, local businesses, fundraisers, and everyone who has donated or helped us along the way.

Every donation, every fundraiser, every share and every act of support is helping us move closer to making this safe space a reality.

💜 60% achieved… 40% to go. Together, we can do this! 🎯

Thank you from all of us at Dawn’s New Horizon 💜
