Rebecca will be joining this year's Warrior Women Walk, taking place on Saturday, 5th October. This empowering event is also being championed by renowned broadcaster and women's rights campaigner Alexis Bowater OBE. The walk will bring together survivors of domestic abuse, individuals walking in solidarity with loved ones affected by trauma and abuse and supporters committed to ending violence against women and girls in our city.
This is Trevi's third annual Warrior Women Walk and will raise crucial funds for the charity based in Plymouth, which provides support and safe spaces for those women affected by domestic abuse and violence.
The Warrior Women Walk attracts participants from across the region to raise awareness and show support for victims and survivors. With both Rebecca and Alexis Bowater OBE lending their voices to the cause, this year's walk promises to be a powerful demonstration of the community's commitment to ending violence against women and girls.
Rebecca is well-known for her commitment to tackling gender-based violence and domestic abuse, especially for women and girls. She expressed her strong support for Trevi's mission:
Domestic abuse and violence against women and girls are tragic realitites that far too many face in Plymouth including those within my own constituency. We cannot allow this to continue. It's vital that we take a proactive approach, working together as a community to tackle this issue at its root.
Addressing these challenges requires both systemic change and cultural shifts, especially engaging men and boys to be part of the solution. Women should not carry the burden alone - we must all step up to ensure that Plymouth is a safe place for everyone.
Trevi is doing incredible work to offer a lifeline to those affected, and I'm proud to join the Warrior Women Walk. By walking together, we show survivors that they are not alone, and we rally for the vital services that help them rebuild their lives.
