Wellington

My family is currently experiencing extreme emotional and physical distress due to ongoing harassment. Things have escalated to the point this person has made false allegations to Work and Income, Oranga Tamariki, and the police. With absolutely no evidence but purely to make their lives harder as they navigate through this process.

Their vehicle has also been taken from their doorstep by this person and nothing has been done about it, my family is now left to ask women's refuge for any resources possible.

The person harassing them knows where they live and has made their environment completely unsafe with stalking and breaking a protection order my family has put in place as they have a young toddler in their home, who we are most concerned about.

We are urgently trying to relocate them to a safe place, cover emergency accommodation, and support them emotionally and financially while they try to rebuild some sense of stability.

Any donation, no matter how small will go towards keeping my family safe, supporting legal action, and providing a secure start in a new area.
