Solas Family Resource Centre launches 16 Days of Action Campaign!
25th November to 10th December 2015
In Ireland, one in five women experience domestic violence during their lifetime, and it is estimated that 213,000 women in Ireland are living with severe abuse from their boyfriends, husbands and partners.
Since 1996, Women's Aid has used the 16 Days Campaign to
raise awareness of the reality of domestic violence and to push for positive
change to increase women's safety. Women's support services, Family Resource
Centres, student groups, and others hold local awareness raising events
throughout the country during the 16 Days of Action. Solas Family Resource
Centre will launch our campaign on Thursday 26th November 2015 at
the Solas Family Resource Centre at 10.30am with Students from Presentation
College Headford and Local representatives.
