Northumberland Domestic Abuse Service
We collaborated with another Club to distribute and disseminate information regarding the recognition of signs of domestic abuse and publicising the help available to victims.
We have printed 5,000 bookmarks for distribution throughout Northumberland County via libraries, health centres, surgeries, schools and community and religious organisations. Club members organised the handover of the bookmarks with publicity drawing attention to the campaign, whilst NDAS supplied the bookmarks to schools through their existing network of visits.
Economic Support – Tynedale Community Bank
Tynedale Soroptimists have invested some Club funds in this recently established bank to allow micro-loans to those in need in the community.
