Christmas can be a really difficult time for people living in our refuges.  Families often escape their homes quickly and are unable to bring food, clothes or their children’s toys.  Each year, the generosity of people amazes us and we are inundated with gifts for children and babies.  This year we are asking people to consider making a small donation to pay towards therapeutic support for children.  For children, a listening ear and access to counselling can really help them overcome the harmful impacts of abuse and violence. Any amount, no matter how small, can make a difference.If you can help, please text IDAS16 followed by your donation amount to 70070 or make a small donation via www.justgiving.com/idas
