As part of this ongoing work, the franchise is pleased to highlight its support for Women’s Aid, a national charity dedicated to ending domestic abuse against women and children. For nearly 50 years, Women’s Aid has provided essential services, safe accommodation, and specialist advocacy to survivors, ensuring they have the support they need at every stage of their journey.
This winter, Lightning players and staff came together to create Christmas shoeboxes filled with toys, clothing, toiletries and essential cleaning products. These boxes will be gifted to families supported by Women’s Aid, helping to provide comfort and practical support during the festive season.
Chloe Hemmings, Commercial Manager – Lightning Netball, said: “Community is at the heart of what we do at Lightning, and we’re proud to play a small part in supporting the work of Women’s Aid this season.”
“The team have really embraced the Christmas Shoebox Appeal, and we look forward to continuing to shine a light on the incredible organisations making a difference in the lives of women and families.”
We look forward to continuing our community work and supporting meaningful causes throughout the year.
