Our Show Respect campaign to tackle violence against women and girls was boosted on Wednesday as the Youth Endowment Fund, a charity that seeks to reduce violence for young people, backed our initiative with £368,000, taking the total committed to £868,000.
The money will fund the STOP project, a relationship violence prevention programme to be delivered in up to five schools by teachers specially trained by the Sex Education Forum. It will begin in September and is being co-ordinated by the Ending Youth Violence Lab.
