Billboard campaign to tackle rising domestic violence in lockdown
Shine is running a billboard campaign in response to a escalation of domestic violence throughout lockdown.
“Being trapped in the same house means there are more opportunities for someone to physically abuse their partner and less opportunities for that person to escape,” a spokesperson for the charity said.
“While additional stress created by the impact of lockdown on jobs, finances, unwell or elderly family members, and childcare does not cause domestic violence, these factors may heighten the risk of physical abuse.”
Adverts will feature on digital LED billboards lit up around Auckland city for two weeks.
Shine offers free specialist help that can be accessed by phone or webchat for people experiencing domestic violence.
The helpline is 0508 744 633 and webchat is available 27/7 at www.2shine.org.nz....

🎭 Tricky, Twisty, and Totally Fun—Let’s Riddle! 🤹♂️
I bring people together, though I’m not alive;
I’m small but vital, helping communities thrive;
I’m often green, sometimes blue or red—
without me, connections might be dead—
What am I?
