We are excited to launch #SafeToday, our 2019 campaign for IDEVAW, the United Nation's designated International Day for Eliminating Violence Against Women, 25th November.

Our national campaign is cross-communal, across the whole Jewish community, asking people to help us in our crucial work against Violence Against Women & Girls.
