White Ribbon Day (WRD) is on Saturday 25 November. A day which also marks the start of the 16 days of activism for ending gender-based violence. Violence against women and girls can occur anywhere and come in various forms. Examples include sexist jokes online and harassment on the train. Certain actions, such as telling sexist 'jokes' at work or in group chats, catcalling, or harassing women on a night out, may be seen as insignificant. Despite these statistics, it is often portrayed as a women’s issue. The first step to #ChangeTheStory is to understand that women and girls live with a fear of violence that men do not experience in the same way. This year, the theme for WRD is #ChangeTheStory. Individuals and organisations are being asked to make consistent choices and actions to #ChangeTheStory for women and girls, so they may live their lives free from the fear of violence. But if glamour is more your style our glitter and metallic ribbons can bring a touch of Hollywood to any table, decorations or gift wrapping.

Across the UK, many people wear a white ribbonto oppose violence towards women. The ribbon symbolises their promise to never commit, excuse, or stay silent about male violence against women. To show our support, Time Square will be lit in white on Saturday evening. Decorating a tree at Christmas is a great way to get creative. Start by cutting lengths of ribbon into strips approx 20cm – 40cm (depending on the size of your tree). Tie onto individual branches (as if you were tying a shoelace) and finish into a bow.
