Have you seen Maya?

1 in 2 women experience emotional abuse and that won't change this Christmas.??85% of the women we support at Solace faced emotional abuse.

The lasting impact and trauma is often overlooked in the context of violence and abuse, but we see firsthand how controlling behaviours such as belittling, silencing and gaslighting can not only be some of the early signs of potential physical and sexual abuse but can be devastating in themselves.??

So yesterday, Solace launched #IseeMaya. Maya represents the women who face emotional abuse and often feel as though they are vanishing, giving you the opportunity to save lives this Christmas and receive an #IseeMaya tree decoration to thank you for your support.??

For every donation of ￡20 or more, you will receive your very special Maya decoration making women and girls visible this Christmas.?

Donate today!

We’d love to see our Maya decoration on trees in offices and homes around the country showing support for women experiencing domestic abuse. After all, we all know Maya. We work with her, we’re friends with her, and many of us are her.?Let’s show Maya we see her this Christmas.?Every donation to Solace will help support women and their families experiencing or recovering from abuse.?

Together, we can end violence against women and girls—this Christmas and beyond.?

Thank you
