2020 Hedland Says No to Family Violence March

Together, we can create a future where all Western Australians live free from family and domestic violence.

This march is in support of the 16 Days in WA Campaign, which runs from November to December. The march is on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.

The March will take place in South Hedland, starting at Centenary Park on Leake Street at 6:30am. Following the march, a barbecue breakfast will be served and attendees can interact with the stalls.

• One in five Western Australian women reported experiencing partner violence since the age of 15.
• Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women account for 67% of hospitalisations due to family and domestic violence in Western Australia.
• 63% of assaults in Western Australia were family and domestic violence-related in 2019.
