NO MORE Week is an annual, international opportunity to come together to raise awareness of domestic abuse and sexual violence, inspiring individuals, organisations, and communities to make change.

NO MORE Week will run from Sunday 7 to Saturday 13 March 2021, coinciding with International Women’s Day on 8 March.

UK Says No More will stand alongside our global sister campaigns, including NO MORE in the US and Australia Says No More, with the aim of sharing resources and information around domestic abuse and sexual violence and demonstrating how we can all take action to create a difference.


Here’s how you can get involved

NO MORE Week virtual 5/10km to end domestic abuse and sexual violence

Strap on your running shoes and head out on a 5 or 10km run during NO MORE Week! We’re encouraging our supporters to head out on a run at any point between 7 and 13 March, with the aim of raising £50 if you’re completing a 5km run, or £100 if you’re taking on the 10km.

All funds raised during your run will help support women and children recovering from domestic abuse in charity Hestia’s refuges.
