Domestic Abuse and Violence Against the Person

Team Lead: Nicky Alberry [email protected]

World Cup: fun for all? Sadly, no! Incidents of domestic abuse can increase significantly during major football tournaments. Data from the National Centre for Domestic Violence revealed that domestic abuse incidents increase by 26% when England play and 38% when England lose. Incidents also increase by 11% the day after England have played, depending on the result.https://www.ncdv.org.uk/news/world-cup-2026-make-good-choices/

Same football match, different perspectives: watch and share this short video by Bournemouth Football Club about how men and women view the same situation differently, all set in a football context. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jrpopxqinj8&t=10s

What a wonderful afternoon at the Swindon Rotary Club President’s Lunch held at the Blunsdon House Hotel.

The event brought members and guests together to celebrate Richard Deacon’s year as Club President and to thank him for his dedication, leadership and service over the past twelve months. It was also an opportunity to reflect on another successful year for the Club as we continue celebrating 100 years of Swindon Rotary.

We enjoyed a delicious three-course meal, excellent fellowship and plenty of conversation in great company.

We were also delighted to welcome award-winning royal photographer Jack Boskett as our guest speaker. Jack shared a fascinating collection of photographs and stories from his work covering royal events and members of the Royal Family, offering a unique glimpse behind the scenes of some remarkable moments. His warm personality and wonderful sense of humour brought the stories to life and made for an engaging, joyful and memorable presentation.

Thank you, Richard, for your commitment and leadership throughout your presidential year. We wish Debbie Vincent every success as she prepares to lead the Club into its next chapter from 1st July.

The carers are amazing and so dedicated to the youngsters.
