1903 Square, Nelson
Join RISE, SASH and Whakatū Refuge for a community hīkoi bringing Nelson Tasman together to stand against violence against women and show support for victim-survivors.
Marking the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women and White Ribbon Day, this is an opportunity to stand in solidarity, raise awareness and send a clear message: violence is never okay, and ending it is something all of us have a part in. Everyone is welcome! Bring your whānau, friends and workmates and walk alongside us as we call for safer communities and a future free from family and sexual violence.
Programme:
10.00am – Gathering and placard-making
11.00am – Community activities and engagement
12.00pm – Sausage sizzle
12.30pm – Hīkoi begins
What to wear: White or purple to show your support. Come along, get involved and help us make a difference. Every person who joins us helps send a powerful message to victim-survivors: we see you, we believe you, and you are not alone. Organised by RISE, SASH and Whakatū Refuge.
