Match fund
The big give women & girls
Double your donation
For one week only, The Big Give will be doubling online donations through their platform for Stop Domestic Abuse, up to £10,000.
This means that your fundraising efforts can have double the impact, turning £5 into £10, £50 into £100, or even £500 into £1,000.
All the funds raised will be going towards a New Refuge to house even more women and children escaping domestic abuse. Every donation will have a positive impact for those in need of a safe space, making an immediate difference to someone in crisis.
How does it work?
From 12:00 on the 8th of October to 12:00 on the 15th of October 2025, The Big Give will open their online platform to the public for donations that goes towards our charity, Stop Domestic Abuse.
The Women and Girls match fund is on a 1:1 basis, so every donation is matched equally if we meet the minimum target. Stop Domestic Abuse has a target of £10,000, which means that if we reach £10,000, every donation in that pot will be doubled, literally doubling the difference!
This all happens for one week, which is a very limited time to raise such a large amount of funds, so we are asking our supporters to help raise money and awareness now to hold and then donate during that one week in October.
