My target 30 kms

This is for women and girls everywhere....

Hi family and friends, from November 25th, I’m going to be walking for a cause that is close to my heart. 

Every woman and girl around the world, deserves to feel Safe. Everywhere. Always. – at home, at the gym, even online - and that is why I’m joining UN Women Australia in the walk to end violence against women and girls.

Help me reach my fundraising goal and we can help to build a better future for women and girls around the world.

Please educate yourself. Not all abuse leaves bruises.

There are many services for woman escaping DV, but these services are saturated with victims.
Why are there more services for victims then services to prevent perpetrators creating victims?
When will the legal and child protection system be fixed to stop systemic abuse?
When will the dismissal of the very real danger from perpetrators stop for people living with mental health conditions?

I have signed up to walk 30kms over 16 days (30 kms isn't a lot for an able-bodied person, but it will be an achievement for me as my trauma has left me struggling to leave the house), raising heaps of money to help bring change would be great but awareness and education is my top priority. Please learn what coercive control is and understand how dangerous it is to "just leave".

I was stupid. I tried to escape. My children now live with our abuser and I lost everything. I'm scared every day.

If your mate is abusing their partner, ex-partner or children STOP protecting them.
Nothing will change if no-one calls out the abusers.

A father who can hurt the mother of their children IS abusing their children.
