Violence against women campaigners recognised in New Year Honours Carole Gould and Julie Devey co-founded a group supporting families affected by male violence.

As a charity founder you work hard. Julie and Carole, alongside the other @killedwomennw.bsky.social founders, work even harder - at a job they don’t want to do. I can’t think of women more deserving of this recognition #NewYearsHonours

Remembering the women killed by men in 2024 Here, Metro pays tribute to just some of the women whose lives were needlessly cut short by men in 2024.

By early August 2024, 50 women had allegedly been killed by men in the UK. Now, it is thought that number is closer to 100.
But these women shouldn’t just be considered yet another statistic in a horrifying body count. These women mattered.

No matter what you say or do, abuse is never your fault.

Even if you made big mistakes, even if you did something very wrong, you STILL do not deserve to be abused. Full stop.
