The Burdekin Mothers Union group held a service at All Saints Anglican Church as part of the 16 Days of Activism for gender-based violence.
The service was attended by parishioners, members of the Burdekin Community Association, the Ayr police service and our local Zonta group.
Rebecca Grogan, Housing And Community Support Service Manager from BCA, was the guest speaker and gave us some interesting information about domestic violence in our community.
We prayed for victims of domestic violence and for those who work hard to support victims and prevent domestic violence in our community.
The congregations of All Saints, Ayr and St Helens Home Hill collect toiletry products to make hygiene packs that are distributed to victims who need to leave their homes without anything.
