West Cork Women Against Violence Workshop

Today the Transition Year students took part in a workshop which focused on domestic abuse.  This interactive workshop talked about available resources , types of abuse and how to recognise the signs and signals of unhealthy relationships.

Some statistics that stuck with the students following today’s workshop were that 60% of reported domestic abuse victims to the West Cork Women Against Violence service were under the age of 25 and that 94% of people know someone who is in or has been in an abusive relationship 

Thanks to Lisa Culloty from West Cork Women Against Violence for this powerful and informative workshop. #shss #aschoolforall #choosewell #domesticabuse #knowledgeispower #notalone #knowyourworth
