Show Notes
In March 2023, 59-year-old Jane Collinson was looking forward to so many exciting things in her life. She was planning her 60th birthday party, her daughters wedding and she was about to buy her dream home with her new husband.
But one mans actions ended all of that. In this episode, we focus on the continuing issue of violence against women and girls. In the UK a woman is killed by a man every 3 days, and Jane was one of them.
This is REAL.
