Ross-shire Women’s Aid held an event on 1st November from 11am-12pm at Falcon Square, Inverness to highlight the importance of services to Women, Children and Young People with experience of domestic abuse.

Our goal was to raise awareness of the impact the impending cuts will have on women, children and young people who experience domestic abuse.   The women and children we represent are rarely able to speak out in public about what they need from services, so the centrepiece of the event will be a group of silhouettes, reminding us that women and children need services because they are not safe at home.

We were joined by service users from across the Highlands, to highlight this issue.
