The Women’s organisation, Hats, and Heels, which created SAFE as a rescue outlet for domestic abuse victims in Anguilla, on Wednesday, March 10th, launched the SAFE (Stop Abuse For Everyone) hotline for psychosocial support. The hotline was launched in the Leon’s Room at the Malliohanna Hotel, with the noteworthy collaboration of Anguilla’s two telecommunications competitors, FLOW and DIGICEL.
Moderating the launch was Mrs. Angelina Carty, Senior Social Worker in the Department of Social Development. Mrs. Jade Reymond-Richardson and Ms. Vyonne Brooks, co-founders of Hats and Heels, 2016, established SAFE in 2019 to cater to the empowerment of women in the Anguilla community and to advocate for the elimination of domestic violence.
