The government’s immediate response to coronavirus is only the start of the work that needs doing. People across the country know that charities like ours are #NeverMoreNeeded now – and for the foreseeable future.
Lockdown has put unprecedented demand upon domestic abuse services. We’re backing the #NeverMoreNeeded campaign because, like many other charities, we know the work we do helps change people’s lives, and our community, for the better.
While we’ve been helping respond to coronavirus, we’ve had less chance to fundraise or to generate other income. At the same time, there has been much greater demand for the work we do. We want to carry on making a positive difference because we’re #NeverMoreNeeded than now.
As a country, what we do and how we allocate resources as we move, hopefully, to recovery will only be effective if we include the people, problems and places that are often overlooked. The work charities do – and our relationships with communities – shows we must to strive to meet everyone’s needs and rights.
