STOP. 23 Brisbane women are posting together to say ENOUGH to men’s violence against women. I’m one of them.
Last year Queensland Police responded to more than 500 domestic and family violence call-outs every day. Five hundred. Every single day.
Stopping men’s violence isn’t the responsibility of women. But I can add my hand to the women saying we’ve had enough.
I’m asking e m m a • d a r r o u z e t • a r t SHELLY HORTON - Keynote Speaker and Small steps for Hannah to add your hands next.
Take a photo with your hand towards the camera. A phone photo is absolutely fine. Using ‘portrait’ mode enables you to blur the background. Make it black and white if you can, post it with and ask three women you know to add their hands too.
You don’t need to share anything personal. Raising your hand doesn’t say you’ve experienced violence. It says you stand with women and girls who have.
If you’d also like to support organisations working with women affected by violence, I’ve added three places you can donate in my Stories and STOP Highlight.
If you or someone you know is experiencing, or at risk of experiencing, domestic, family or sexual violence, 1800RESPECT is available 24/7 on 1800 737 732, by text on 0458 737 732 or online at 1800respect.org.au. In an emergency, call 000.
