St Helens World Cup "Red Line" Domestic Violence Campaign
2nd Jul 2010
World Cup campaign Launch
Saturday 12th June saw the launch of the “red line” domestic violence marketing campaign for the World Cup season. Both our St Helens IDVAs attended this event in the town centre with the Detective Inspector of the Family Crime Investigation Unit.
The campaign was a success and saw many passers by in the town centre signing up to the fight against domestic abuse. A red line was taped to the floor across St Helens town centre where shop owners and passers by stood for photo opportunities in their support to ending domestic violence.
We see this as the first steps to combating what is predicted to be a high season for domestic abuse incidents in the area. Both the Police and the IDVA’s are working together to highlight the support available for victims throughout this time and also to bring perpetrators to justice
