On clicking on it it told me it was International Day for remembering violence against women and children
I should have known that my lovely D step D was in a very abused relationship and spent several months in a refuge! but sadly we didn't know before hand :(
Thank goodness for Claire's Law which is spreading everywhere in the UK
Here they are 12 yrs on. Jo left her home when the 2 children were aged 2 and 5 years

On International Day, UN urges renewed efforts to end violence against women, girls - Isn't it great to learn new things :)
a great thing to learn lynne, thanks for passing it on to us all
ReplyDeleteYes I saw this on the news this week but knew about it before as it was trialled over here. It is a wonderful thing because it is one of the things bringing abuse out into the open and helping women to realise it is not normal or their fault.
