Nottingham communications agency Cartwright Communications has picked domestic abuse group Juno Women’s Aid as its charity of the year.
Cartwright chose Juno in a team-wide vote and will support it through fundraising events and pro-bono services. The charity has been helping women, children and young people in Nottingham and south Nottinghamshire for more than 40 years, empowering them to live free from abuse. At any one time, it supports up to 600 people.
Its support includes secure refuge accommodation and a 24-hour helpline every day of the year where survivors can speak to trained female support workers. It also provides drop-in crisis support, survivor advocacy, stalking advocacy, and family court advice.
