🎨We're so pleased to be taking part in in collaboration with Stirchley Printworks. Together, a group of the women we work with will create lino prints, to tell their stories, and mark our 40th year. The combined prints will be made into one commemorative work.

❓Did you know you can call the police without having to speak? If you're in danger and talking would put you more at risk then you can make a silent 999 call. ☎️ From a mobile, just call 999 then tap in 55, and the police should be able to locate you. If the call comes from a landline and no one speaks they'll also be able to trace where it came from. There's more information on what to do if you think you're at risk via the 🔗link in bio.

⚽England's first World Cup game is tonight - football tournaments normally come with a spike in domestic abuse. Statistics from the National Centre of Domestic Violence show that it increases 26% whenever England play, and 38% if they lose. There's more reports the next day too.
⚽If you are in immediate danger, call 999. The National Domestic Abuse Helpline is available 24/7 and is on 0808 2000 247. Our free helpline is available during office hours on 0330 056 0065.

🎓 We had a graduation event today for our Peer Mentors and Champions. They're part of a programme which gives women the opportunity to volunteer, contribute towards, and support the services at the centre. Those involved support our work in many ways, helping us to recruit new staff, shaping services and lending a hand in the foodbank - among many other things!
🎉Today we celebrated the achievements of 20 women who've been through our new training programme, and will be working with us even more closely in the future. Their contribution is invaluable and we're so grateful for their time and dedication.
