Do we allow families in Inishowen to be neglected/abandoned and ignored again? LIFELINE (Inishowen) Domestic Violence Service provides a community response which offers support to women and children, in Inishowen, who are experiencing or have experienced domestic abuse; physical, emotional, threatening, bullying, sexual and financial abuse. LIIFELINE (Inishowen) can provide women with support, information, advocacy, court accompaniment and counseling at a time when they feel abandoned and lost in their lives. We continue to support the women through their journey of change by providing a confidential and empowering approach. The services are 'women centered' and provided by trained professional Volunteers. Clients have emphasised the importance of a local based response to allow their transition/journey to be less complicated. (This petition will be sent to local and national TD's, HSE's Head of Child and Family Services, Gordon Jeyes and all other significant figures we feel will be able to help) Please share this link with friends and family, our petition number is only a baseline!

I have been hearing so many heartbreaking stories while reading through your comments and I truly never imagined this would grow into such a meaningful conversation. The credit for this movement belongs entirely to the people of Inishowen who refuse to let these families face their challenges alone.

I am truly overwhelmed by the momentum this has gained lately. This movement belongs entirely to the people of Inishowen who refuse to let these vital services disappear. You have turned a simple request for help into something that simply cannot be ignored.

Absolute disgrace if this closes. Everyone knows how hard it is to get help these days. Keep the doors open.

Leaving women and kids without local support in Inishowen is absolutely shameful. Sort it out!

This service is a lifeline for so many women in the area. We cannot let them shut down after all the help they have given. Please keep it open.
