SI Griffith in partnership with Linking Communities Network and the Griffith Local Domestic Violence Committee held their inaugural Memorial Vigil to remember the women and children killed in domestic and family violence incidents this year. At one point during the hour long silent vigil, held on 29 November, we were welcomed to Country by a Wiradjuri elder, Dot Watts, followed by very short addresses by our local state MP Helen Dalton, Mayor Doug Curran and representatives from LCN and Soroptimists. Soroptimists in action to UNITE against gender based violence.
