On Just One Day, 467 women and
229 children – nearly 700 people – were receiving accommodation and
support from a domestic violence service in Ireland. Click here to get the full report.
When we consider that in Ireland only 3 in every 10
women experiencing violence from a partner are likely to seek support
from any agency, it really puts these numbers in perspective. The sad
reality is we are only dealing with “the tip of the iceberg”.
SAFE Ireland is working to transform
Ireland's response to this enormous problem which is having a daily
impact across homes, communities and workplaces in Ireland. On a daily
basis our members see women achieve life saving outcomes for themselves
and their children with support from our services.
There is so much we can do together to create the conditions for more women to access the resources and safety they need for themselves and their children.
We believe that working together across
social, justice, health, business and government agencies it is possible
to to make Ireland one of the safest countries in the world. We can
achieve this together, we just need the will to do so.
