We stand united with our friends in New Zealand.

Tonight there are children going to bed missing a parent. Parents who have lost a child.

Their tragic losses follow acts of cowardly hatred.

Let’s honour their memories by strengthening our commitment to compassion and love.

It’s about TIME. Physical abuse and consent are finally getting more mainstream conversation and we’re glad that TIME Magazine has named those taking the big leaps to go public about their stories as Person of the Year. Watch here #16days #HRWVic17
