To mark White Ribbon Day on 25th November,
Leeway has launched a campaign to raise awareness of domestic abuse and is
encouraging businesses and organisations to get involved!
The Pass The Ribbon campaign aims to get people to use
their online platforms to spread awareness of the White Ribbon movement and
what it stands for, normalising conversations around domestic abuse.
Leeway has produced an asset pack with resources such as
social media header graphics, template social media posts, email signatures,
and posters for people to display to show their support to the campaign.
By displaying these, you are helping us to challenge the
attitudes and behaviours that allow violence against women and girls to become
normalised, as well as raising awareness of domestic abuse.
It’s simple to get involved, simply visit our asset pack,
download the graphic you wish to share and display it on your social media
platforms for the 16-days of action.
You can also download and print our posters, which can be
displayed in workplaces or in your local community.
Whilst the campaign lasts for 16 days, domestic abuse is a
year-round issue, and there are many ways you can continue to support us
throughout the year!
What is White Ribbon Day?
White Ribbon Day, or the International Day for the
Elimination of Violence Against Women, is a worldwide day raising awareness of
all forms of violence against women.
On the 25th November and the 16-day action
period that follows, organisations around the world host events and campaigns
to raise awareness of issues such as domestic abuse and encourage supporters to
pledge their commitment to tackling violence against women.
It specifically calls for men and boys to speak out about
the issue of violence against women and girls, taking the pledge to do their
bit to challenge the behaviours and attitudes that allow violence against women
to become normalised.
The international theme of this year’s campaign is “We
Speak Up”, which specifically calls on men and boys to speak out and challenge
sexism.
Leeway’s campaign echoes the themes of the international
campaign, calling on individuals, organisations and businesses locally to do
their bit to raise awareness of domestic abuse and pass on the important
messages that the white ribbon stands for.
How to Support Leeway?
There are many ways to support our Pass The Ribbon
campaign, whether you wish to personally support or if your business or
organisation wishes to get involved.
Social media is a fantastic way of connecting communities
and spreading important messages to a wide audience, which is why we’ve created
assets such as profile pictures, cover photos, and template social media posts.
You can display these on your own profile to show your
support or share posts to any community groups that you are part of.
We have also included email signatures and posters that can
be displayed by businesses and organisations.
Lots of emails are sent by businesses on a daily basis, so
what better way to spread awareness and start conversations around the White
Ribbon and domestic abuse.
Why not display one of our posters in your workplace or in
your local community too? That information could be the catalyst that helps
someone to get the support that they need.
You can also help us to Pass the Ribbon by sharing our
social media posts, helping our important messages to reach even more people!
Many of you will have watched the ITVprogramme thisweek called ‘How to Save a Life’. The programme highlighted the possible causes of our country’s very poor cardiac arrest survival rates. Viewers wereasked to consider whether life-saving skills should be taught in schools and were shown a Norwegian school where mandatory training for students has been introduced and survival rates are higher.
At Norvic we believe equippingyoung peoplewith key essential skills is really important and we want to help make this a possibility. As a start we are producing some A4 posters that can be printed from our website. We hope that popping these up on the wall and perhaps running through them with your youngsters each week will be a good start.
The topics we have picked out include;
Asthma, anaphylaxis, fractures, bleeds and making an emergency call.
Do let us know your thoughts and if there is anything else that we can do.

Employees from the Norwich branch of Pure Resourcing Solutions (Pure) put their decorating and gardening skills to excellent use this week by renovating a garden wall at East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices (EACH) in Quidenham. As with all of the charity’s hospices, Quidenham cares for life-threatened children and their families by providing short breaks, care at end of life, bereavement support, and many different activities and therapies.
Eight volunteers, split into two teams, spent Tuesday 12th and Wednesday 13th February giving the wall in the hospice’s sensory garden a revamp. As a place of relaxation for children and young people with life-threatening illness, it is vital the area is kept in excellent condition.
The volunteering builds on a long-term relationship between Pure and EACH, whose Royal Patron is The Duchess of Cambridge.
Joseph O’Sullivan, Pure Office Manager and one of the volunteers, says, “We really enjoyed volunteering for EACH Quidenham. First, the wall had to be cleared of ivy – one brave team member even climbed the six foot wall to get rid of it! We then sanded it down and gave it a coat of bright yellow paint. It was an inspiring day that makes you realise you can do something to help others – you just need to give a little bit of your time.”
Gill Buchanan, Director of Pure, says, “Pure is proud to continue our support of EACH not just in Quidenham, but across the East of England. Volunteering is a wonderful way to help EACH keep the hospice in great condition for the children, young people and their families. Our volunteers also feel a great sense of satisfaction knowing they are helping.”
Gary Cook of EACH, says, “Our children and young people need pleasant, cheerful and calm surroundings so they can be as comfortable as possible. We are delighted that staff at Pure in Norwich were able to give their time to help us provide a home-from-home for everyone who visits – be it for one day or for an extended period.”
The Pure volunteering project kicks off another year of charity activity; the company already has fundraising events planned in Norwich, Ipswich, Cambridge and Chelmsford, to raise funds for EACH and other charities in the East of England. To find out more about Pure’s charity support, contact Anna Hill, Marketing Manager on 01223 209888 or Anna.Hill@prs.uk.com.

Freebridge Community Housing is proud to announce the completion of its new affordable housing development in the heart of Brancaster Staithe.
The development, comprising of 12 homes, has been built on the former site of Freebridge properties that were damaged beyond repair during a major fire in July 2022, caused by electrical storm arcing onto nearby trees during extreme heat.
The development was made possible thanks to funding from Freebridge and Homes England’s Affordable Homes Programme, and was delivered in partnership with Robson Construction Ltd, who worked closely with Freebridge to realise the vision of The Design Partnership’s plans which ensure the homes reflect the character and charm of the local area and includes seven three-bedroom houses, four two-bedroom houses, and one two-bedroom flat.
All properties are designated as affordable housing, helping to address the shortage of suitable homes for local families.
Among those celebrating the unveiling was Marlene Keeling, a former resident of one of the original homes, who returned to cut the ribbon on her brand-new house.
Marlene was joined by her family members, Freebridge CEO, Anita Jones, and North-West Norfolk MP, James Wild, as well as Brancaster Staithe Parish Council and representatives involved in the design and construction.
Mr Wild commented: “The design of these new homes shows a great respect for the village’s character with their quintessentially Norfolk flint work and red brick detailing to their modern touches from solar panels to EV charging.
“Having supported this project from its beginning after the original houses were damaged in the 2022 heatwave, it’s great to see these homes ready for local families to move into”.
This development represents a significant step forward for Brancaster Staithe, a village where the rise in second home ownership has made it increasingly difficult for local people to find affordable places to live.
With many properties in the area used as second homes, holiday homes or short-term lets, the availability of permanent housing for year-round residents has been limited.
By delivering homes that are both affordable and environmentally conscious, Freebridge is helping to rebalance the local housing market ensuring that those with strong ties to the community can continue to live, work, and thrive in the community.
Anita Jones, CEO of Freebridge Community Housing, said: “We’re proud to mark the completion of these new homes in Brancaster Staithe, an important milestone in our commitment to supporting sustainable communities across West and North Norfolk.
“This development goes beyond bricks and mortar; it’s about enabling local people to remain rooted in the places they call home, despite growing pressures from second home ownership and rising housing costs.
“By investing in high-quality, energy-efficient homes, we’re helping to secure the future of coastal villages like Brancaster Staithe, ensuring they remain vibrant, inclusive, and resilient for generations to come”.
Our next open morning will be on Saturday 16th March, 9-11am.
A year group of students will act as your guides and you will have the opportunity to visit a Boarding House, all the Teaching Departments of the College and the Music, Drama and Sports facilities.
The Principal, senior staff members and Admissions Office staff will be available to welcome you and discuss the opportunities that the College can offer your son or daughter.
