Raising awareness of the impact of violence on the community
The Bega community has come together to help raise awareness of the impact of violence.
The Bega Valley Domestic and Sexual Violence Committee hosted its annual street march protest against violence on Wednesday, December 19 through the centre of town.
The march was originally scheduled for Sunday, November 25, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, but was rescheduled due to unforeseen wet weather.
South East Women and Children’s Services’ program manager Caroline Long said 50 people took part in the march.
“The response form the community was extremely positive,” Ms Long said.
