Thank you for those who attended, staff and young people – hopefully this can encourage more people to take a stand to prevent violence against women or share their own awareness! If any of our stones are seen out and about don’t forget to share a picture to us 😁

[Go Girls Wales & The Brothers @GoGirlsWales]

White Ribbon Day 2021 – 25th November
The Brothers walk to bring awareness, discuss and support preventing violence against women. Pebbles with quotes, awareness messages and support were left around Cwmbran and talked to many people within the community to address this topic.

[Go Girls Wales & The Brothers @GoGirlsWales]

The White Ribbon Promise is to never commit, excuse or remain silent about male violence against women.

There will be two more walks from The Brothers in support of this cause – extremely important topic and we are so pleased of the turn-out and the awareness shared!
