Purple Friday 

We have managed to acquire 1000 (300 for Illawarra Clubs and 700 for the District clubs). Illawarra Clubs instigated this initiative through Escabags a local charity working to support victims of Domestic Violence.
 
You will be able to purchase T-Shirts for $8 through TryBooking -flyer attached. Buy your t-shirt/s now.
 
Wear these shirts to the activities you have planned in your local area and also during the two weeks of action (end of November and first 2 weeks of December). We also encourage you to wear the t-shirts every Friday-making "Purple Friday" an important way of raising awareness of the impact of domestic violence on our communities.
 
Further get your local organisations and schools to be involved-this can have an important impact on raising awareness and starting conversations.
