Young Crisis Accommodation Centre’s Margaret House Committee are holding a White Ribbon event on Friday, November 11.
Supported by Margaret House, Mercy Health and the Young Yabbies Rugby Club, the event will be held at Young Junior Rugby Clubhouse at Hall Brother’s Oval from 5.30pm – 7.30pm. Guest speaker, Liam Dooley - a White Ribbon Australia ambassador – will give an address on what the community can do to end domestic violence.
“It’s about increasing awareness of domestic violence in the community and the White Ribbon Foundation,” president of Margaret House, Sue McGregor, said. “Educating our children and father’s to be great role models. Making a change for the next generation.”
White Ribbon is the world’s largest movement of men and boys working together to end men’s violence against women and girls, to promote gender equality and healthy relationships. White Ribbon has been working towards stamping out violence against women in one capacity or another in Australia for 25 years.
