QCWA donates bags to support DV victims
THE Queensland Country Women’s Association (QCWA) West Moreton Division is making a difference in the lives of women affected by domestic violence by donating essential toiletries to those in need.
Each year, the Women’s Crisis Support Centre in Ipswich requires around 50 domestic violence bags to help women, with the QCWA West Moreton assisting as much as possible. These bags, filled with toiletries and other helpful items, are designed to offer immediate relief and support to women escaping difficult and often dangerous situations.
Wendi Silcox from the QCWA Boonah branch, Gaylene Knack, and Gail Wendt from the Glamorgan Vale branch have been instrumental in preparing and supplying these bags, along with the crucial community support. The bags also contain some items for children, ensuring that families receive support during their most vulnerable times.
The annual donation is part of the QCWA’s ongoing commitment to assist local women and children, offering them comfort and practical support as they navigate the challenging circumstances surrounding domestic violence.
For more information or to contribute to this initiative, visit the Women’s Crisis Support Centre Inc. or contact the QCWA Glamorgan Vale or Boonah branch.
