Background Information
Battered Women's Trust is a not for profit organisation offering support
services to women and children affected by domestic violence. We aim to
empower women to create a safe and healthy family life for themselves and their
children.
Our objective is to operate services providing safety, support, advocacy, counselling and education to women and children who are victims of domestic violence. Battered Women's Trust is affiliated women's refuge to the National Collective of Women’s Refuges (NCIWR), which is a collective of more than 40 refuges across New Zealand. All proceeds of this event will support vital services for children affected by domestic violence. We are developing a dedicated children's therapy room, to replace the one we lost in the earthquake. The room will be a place where children can enjoy themselves without feeling unsafe or threatened.
Battered Women's Trust support, on average, 245 children per year (with the numbers increasing) both in the community and in residential care.
