We gather not only to honour the women and children murdered in domestic violence homicides over the past year but also to demand immediate, concrete change. Violence against women is nothing short of a national crisis, a silent genocide that we must address urgently.

By standing with us and sharing your voice, you will not only inspire hope but also amplify the message that #enoughisenough

Your support will contribute significantly to the movement striving to create a safer, more compassionate world for all.

Our vigil will consist of:

  • Welcome to Country

  • Introduction to Vigil by Nadine Taylor (Hope + Heal) and Rebecca Fitzpatrick (Lou's Place)

  • Delia Donovan, CEO DV NSW

  • Daniel Principe, Youth Advocate & Educator

  • Darryl Gardiner from Rolling with the Punches

  • Reading of the women’s names and laying down the roses.

Proudly supported by:

  • Hope + Heal

  • Lou's Place

  • DV NSW

  • Moving Forward

  • City of Sydney

  • Dress for Success

  • FullStop Australia

  • SSI

  • Muslim Women Australia
