Please support me to run 1509kms in 50 days to raise money for Women's Safety Services SA. This non-government organisation provides important support services to women and families who have been impacted by domestic and family violence and abuse in South Australia.

This event that I have named ‘Run to Feel, Run to Heal’ I hope will provide funding to help those in need while doing something I love- running and healing through movement. I will begin my run on my birthday (November 12) and will finish the run in time to end the year (31st Dec). I would like to encourage you to make a time to run with me in support and to build community or just to have a chat and check-in. I will host a few short group runs that I would love for you to attend if you can. A massive thank you to the very talented Alison Thompson for the beautiful logo that she created for my fundraising cause.
Donations to Women’s Safety Services SA go towards providing:
-Resources for people who are forced to flee violent relationships
-Therapeutic programs to support people impacted by domestic and family violence and abuse
-Partnership with 1800RESPECT- confidential trauma-informed counselling service available 24 hours a day, seven days a week (national sexual assault, domestic and family violence counselling service)
Please feel free to email me if you have any questions about my fundraising event, what this means to me and how it works or would like to organise a time to support my sore legs by running with me as I ‘Run to Feel, Run to Heal’: npaffett@live.com.au
