“I can’t describe how much I appreciate support Dash gave me. From the very first minute I felt I am not alone. They made me believe in myself again and build up my confidence back, while supporting me through this horrible, difficult and life changing period of time”. [Young Mum of two]
In 2020, DASH had over 1,000 calls to their helpline and supported 436 local clients through advocacy and outreach services. They also supported 44 women and 45 children in their 3 refuges, who have fled across the country from abuse. DASH helps victims access free legal assistance and their programmes help women, men and children/young people recognise tactics of abuse, so they can feel more empowered and break the cycle of abuse. Do you want to join this incredible organisation and raise vital funds to help STOP Domestic Abuse within your local area?

The role will be varied and interesting and will involve communicating the charity’s fundraising ‘case’ via social media, key relationship development, donor management, crafting of newsletters, storytelling and the regular co-ordination of local engagement activities.
