16 Days of Activism to End VAWG

Today it was a privilege to join Trevi Women, Alexis Bowater OBE and the women of Plymouth Soroptimists on their #endvawg walk on International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.

Wearing orange and laying candles on the Nancy Astor statue on Plymouth Hoe, it was great to be able to join with many to reflect on how far we’ve come since the Plymouth Commission on Violence against Women and Girls was launched almost two years ago and commit to all that we need to do in the months and years ahead to #endviolenceagainstwomen. #16daysofactivism
