I’m walking 80K this February to raise much needed funds for Women’s Aid.
Across Ireland one in three women live with suffocating abuse from someone they once loved; someone they once trusted. Every 5 minutes, someone reaches out to Women’s Aid for information and support.
Your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate a lot or a little, anything helps. I hope you can support me by donating whatever you can. By supporting Women’s Aid you can change lives, and save lives.

Sunday 25th JanI am not afraid of domestic violence no longer. And my voice will be heard.
Trapped in a relationship with an abusive partner from the age of 17.when fear dictated my life for far too long. It’s time my story be told. Hopefully, this blog will shed some light on what it’s like to be a survivor of domestic violence.
Together, we’ll shatter the stigma.
There are many types of abuse: emotional, physical, financial, sexual, and spiritual. Uncomparable, each of these elements work to exhaust victims and empower abusers. Now, fellow survivors, we must gather our war paint and rally our battle cries. Enough is enough. (According to the National Domestic Violence Hotline website, nearly 1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men are victims of extreme relationship violence.) It’s important to note that this blog features a domestic violence relationship with a male abuser. This is strictly hypothetical and it must be said that there is no “typical abuser.” The only thing that links abusers is their conscious choice to abuse. This blog mostly focuses on my story. While my experience may be similar to that of other survivors, it does not reflect what happens in all relationships with abusive partners. Just because something worked for me does not mean that it worked for other survivors or will work for others who are seeking a way out. Every survivor’s experience is unique. There is no right way to get out.
So lady’s gents if you could kindly donate to my page as I am doing a 80k walk for the month of February as this hits very close to home for me, and as a domestic violence survivor I want to raise more awareness thank you Share
