Seasons Greetings and Happy New Year

By Nik Peasgood | Chief Executive

Hello all,

We would like to say a big thank you for the support you have given our charity throughout 2019 and we hope you had a happy and restful festive period.

Over the past year, we’ve provided support for thousands of women and children experiencing domestic violence and abuse. We can only do this work because of the generosity of our supporters.

We are particularly grateful to all the groups, businesses and individuals who donated Christmas gifts for the women and children staying in our refuges to show them they are being thought of.

We will be in touch again soon, for any further news, check out our website on www.leedswomensaid.org.uk and follow us on Twitter or Facebook on @LeedsWomensAid

Looking forward to 2020

We have lots of exciting things planned for 2020 including the launch of our new Leeds Women’s Aid logo and branding which we’ve been working hard on over the past few months and are looking forward to sharing with you soon.

Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we’re also going to install new play equipment and resurface the gardens at our refuge accommodation in order to create lovely gardens where the women we support can relax and their children can play.

This year also marks 5 years since our Leeds Women’s Aid charity shop opened in Horsforth. Our charity shop is a vibrant local enterprise which has helped us raise vital funds for our domestic violence support services. They sell clothing, books, homeware, toys and games and are open Monday to Saturday at 102 New Road Side, LS18 4QB. Please consider popping in to see if you can grab yourself a bargain and keep an eye out for details of our 5-year anniversary celebrations later in the year.

Thank you for your support and I’ll be in touch again soon,

Nik
