Support the Women's Aid 'Love Hearts' Postcard Campaign

The Women's Aid 'Love Hearts' Postcard Campaign is continuing throughout the 16 Days Campaign.

Women's Aid is distributing 53,000 postcards nationwide to raise awareness of domestic violence and to profile the 16 Days campaign nationally and locally. We have been received great feedback about the postcard and most people find it a really effective and strong way to communicate the reality of domestic violence for many Irish women. Some of the feedback includes:

"Very effective at portraying emotional abuse"

"Very subtle but grabs you and gets the message across"
"Brilliant"

"Very attractive to young people"

10,000 cards have been distributed from Women's Aid to politicians, the media, community groups, family resource centres and other key activists, policy makers and interested individuals. Thank you to everyone who has distributed copies of the postcard within your local communities.

13,000 postcards are being distributed by the Union of Students in Ireland (USI) throughout the 21 3rd level campuses over the 16 Days. This is a great way to reach young people to highlight the issue of domestic violence and we are delighted to be working with the USI this year.

30,000 postcards are being distributed in Dublin through the Pictureworks advertising company who have postcard racks in 210 venues across the city.

If you'd like to get a copy of postcard some are still available in pubs, restaurants, cafes and other entertainment venues. Pick one up today.
