Join us for the launch of Abingdon against Domestic Abuse (AaDA) on Tuesday 15th September 2026, beginning at 6:00 pm.
AaDA is a new community initiative with a vision to create a town where all forms of domestic abuse are recognised early, challenged safely, and responded to with compassion, understanding, and with accessible local services.

The evening will include a presentation on AaDA, contributions from key partners and local people with lived experience. Followed by a Q&A session and an opportunity for you to tell us about your thoughts on the plans.

There will also be an opportunity to view and comment on the posters and logos created for AaDA by acclaimed artist and supporter Geoff Dunbar.

After the presentations, there will be a screening of The Burning Bed, the 1984 film that helped transform public understanding of domestic abuse and bring the issue into mainstream discussion.
Abingdon Town Council and the Abbey Cinema are kindly supporting this event.

Everyone is welcome to join us for this significant evening of reflection, learning, and community action.
