We are thrilled to be in
@bournemouthecho alongside
@soroptimist.bournemouth and
@sidwick4dorset Last week, Caroline Foster, co-founder of Fresh Thoughts, had the immense honour of speaking directly with Queen Camilla during the Royal
@theroyalfamily visit and giving her a copy of Fresh Thoughts.
Caroline explained how the booklet is helping women access vital information and legal support when fleeing domestic abuse.
Caroline also thanked the Queen for her lovely response when she was sent the original Dorset version 2 years ago and explained that it has now spread across the country.
Gail Thomas from @soroptimist.bournemouth was able to share other
@soroptimistgbi projects related to violence against women and girls.
We also want to extend a massive thank you to Dorset Police and Crime Commissioner, David Sidwick @sidwick4dorset .
David’s ongoing support and sponsorship of our booklet have been invaluable, and we are so grateful to him for championing our work alongside Caroline during the reception today and giving such welcome recognition of the work of
@soroptimistglobal .
Having the Queen listen so intently to our mission is a testament to the enormous success of Fresh Thoughts. Let’s keep this momentum going!
