FearFree is a charity that supports families impacted by domestic abuse, sexual violence and stalking across Wiltshire and the South-West.

With over 2.1 million incidents and crimes of domestic abuse and sexual violence recorded by our police forces in England and Wales last year, and less than one in four domestic abuse crimes ever reported, there is a good chance that someone in our lives, whether a family member, a co-worker, or a friend, is currently in or will be in an abusive relationship. The sad reality is that, because this is generally a hidden crime, committed behind closed doors, they will most likely suffer in silence.

That’s where FearFree and you help change that…

FearFree supports over 10,000 adults and children ( all genders, sexualities and backgrounds) every year to not only keep them safe but to rebuild their lives fulfilled, happy and free from fear and abuse.

“It may not seem like a lot to you, but you have changed the course of my life.” Sal: a survivor of domestic abuse

Your support will help save and change lives:

• £50 could purchase a simple smartphone to enable a victim to make safe contact with our services.

• £150 could fund a video doorbell to enable a victim of stalking to feel safe in their own home and collect vital evidence used by the Police.

• £500 could fund a new home starter pack for a family including home essentials, kitchen ware, bedding
