Our Mission
STOP THE SILENCE.
END DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
This is a milestone moment for the charity. The launch of our new mission statement, branding and website marks an ambitious new chapter in STORM’s story.
But this is more than a fresh lick of paint for the charity.
It goes much deeper and wider.
It gives us a solid foundation to achieve more impact.
There’s so much work to do: one in four women will suffer domestic violence in their lifetime. And that won’t change unless we all work together to change the culture.
It’s all about achieving real, lasting impact.
Whether it’s sexualised AI-generated images of women and children on X, or the celebration of toxic masculinity, which is polluting young minds: Enough is enough.
Too many women have suffered in silence for far too long. We must end domestic violence in all its abhorrent forms.
We want to help more women to tell their stories and amplify their voices, here at home and more widely, across the UK.
We want to deliver more practical help by providing women escaping domestic violence with the tools to take their first step towards freedom and rebuild their lives.
That’s why we want to launch new STORM Starter packs, which include opening a new bank account, a new mobile phone, emergency accommodation, and something as simple but essential as a toothbrush for that first night.
We want to raise our public profile to ramp up the pressure on the government and local politicians to end the national emergency of domestic violence against women and young girls.
