Notable Quotes, FADA AW 2021
Sikh Women's Aid, Domestic Abuse Chairty
“Excellent piece of work. Some elements of the Sikh Community’s faith leadership desperately need to understand that a Gurdwara is a community hub & services must be tailored to support its congregation in the good times & bad. Asking them to “pray away” abuse is not the answer.”
Solace Women’s Aid, Domestic Abuse Charity
“G Proud to support this. We can all play our part. #DomesticAbuse”
Notable Quotes, FADA AW 2020
