Stuart Elford, Chief Executive of Devon & Plymouth Chamber of Commerce, said: ‘The Chamber is proud to support the vital work of Trevi and Plymouth Argyle in addressing the ongoing threat of domestic violence against women and girls.
‘With the upcoming European Football Championship taking place in Germany, we recognise the potential for an increase in reports of abuse and are committed to doing our part to prevent it.

‘Together, we can make a difference and send a strong message that violence against women and girls is never acceptable.’
This campaign is part of Trevi’s larger initiative, ‘ENOUGH’, which launched city-wide last year and is still ongoing.
