Last Christmas, Willow* and her big sister Jade* didn't get to unwrap any presents

Instead, they spent the day hiding in a crawl space, while their father beat their mum nearly to death. They were terrified they'd be next.

Over the festive season, domestic and family violence spikes. The children experiencing it will be terrified and traumatised. The harm the violence causes could destroy their childhoods. Some children may even lose their lives.

Please, will you help children facing violence this Christmas?

Donate now and you can surround children in the personalised, evidenced-based care they need to stay safe and escape the horror of violence forever.
