From organiser Nicola Thompson:
As we are aware this vital service has been subject to critical funding cuts meaning that currently they can not accept any new referrals for counselling.
We are aware that long term our Commissioners and MPs need to prioritise ongoing funding for such pivotal essential services, but as a community in the interim, Sarah and myself would love for you to get behind us and help fundraise some essential money so services can continue operating to ensure everyone has the support they need to move towards the road to recovery.
Want to join us in making a difference? The organisation provides person centred care, ensuring dignity and respect are at the centre of their support. This service is essential and focuses on past and present cases of abuse.
Courage is everything and Sarah and I want to do everything we can to support this amazing service
We are raising money to benefit West Mercia Rape & Sexual Abuse Support Centre, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.
