Jarrold Refuge Appeal
Jarrold Department store in Norwich, have kindly agreed to partner Leeway in our Refuge Appeal. Last year we opened two new refuges, in Norwich and North Norfolk and are asking for your help. We need your support, to help equip these buildings, so we can accommodate women and children fleeing domestic abuse. To help, all you need to do is a purchase an item of your choice, from our refuge appeal list. This item will then be donated to us and be used directly, in one of the new refuges, by the women and children we support. Any item you donate, however big or small will contribute to equipping the flats, so we can accommodate women and children, who need help. Jarrold’s department store are kindly helping us with this project, by setting up an appeal wish list (like a wedding list), which provides a list of items, like tin openers and plates, which we need, to equip the refuges. Please follow this link to help Leeway now. To access the list please enter ‘Leeway’ in the Grooms Name and ‘Charity’in the Brides Name. It’s very simple and quick to do, just login, select the item and quantity you wish to purchase and fill in your details. Alternativley purchases can be made, either by visiting the store in Norwich or by using the contact details below. Jarrolds will deliver the item to us, free of charge. The new refuges will provide single women or women and their children with their own secure self contained flat to allow them with the space and time they need, to make safe decisions about their future. Each item donated will be used in the refuges, directly benefiting women and children on a daily basis. Your support is invaluable and will help us to keep women and children safe from abuse.
