The Butterfly Foundation
(UK, 1150861) Browse events
YTD Raised: £0.00The Butterfly Foundation is a local UK charity based in Bournemouth. Our charity works with women, men, children and young people who have experienced, or are at risk of domestic violence. We are unique as we address this issue through the creative and performing arts. The arts help to empower our members, raise self esteem, confidence and self worth. The art exhibitions and performances contribute towards raising public awareness of the effects of domestic violence on an individual, the children, young people and our society. At Butterfly, we believe that every person is a unique and creative individual, given a safe space and the belief in themselves that they are beautiful, deserving and can achieve their dreams. When a new member comes to Butterfly we are able to offer the understanding, compassion and empathy required. When a member has accessed Butterfly for six months, the transformation that takes place is a privilege to witness. The member is now confident, with high self worth and self esteem and is in a position to pass on their learning to their children and other members of their family and friends. It is important for both genders to work together on this issue, through working together we send out a stronger message that men and women are united in opposing domestic violence. A recent report estimated that nearly 1,000,000 children and young people in the UK are affected by domestic violence. In response to members, local and national need, we have devised the Caterpillar Club, Children’s Art Therapy for children aged 4 to12 years. In partnership with another local charity, Vita Nova, we deliver programmes into primary schools educating on Safer Relationships and how drug and alcohol addiction and domestic violence self perpetuates. In partnership with Bournemouth Youth Service, we have created Healthy Relationships DV Programme for young people aged13-19 years.
