Fundraising events

Wicklow Safe Haven is determined to create a safe environment for everyone. There is no justification for physical and sexual violence. The consequences for families are devastating and long-lasting.

Wicklow Safe Haven have pledged to support and fundraise for us here at Anu (the outreach arm of Bray Women’s Refuge). Anu provide crucial support to help victims of domestic abuse and violence build a brighter future.

Wicklow Safe Haven will host a series of events to raise funds and awareness for Anu’s essential work. We encourage other groups to replicate our efforts and make a difference in their communities.
