Profits will be donated to our chosen charity hamptontrust.org.uk, a leading provider of bold and innovative interventions and training that help break the cycle of abuse. The interventions, based both in the community and embedded within the criminal justice system, create safe spaces for victims and hold perpetrators to account to drive behaviour change and help rebuild lives. Hampton Trust’s primary objective is to prevent harmful behaviours from becoming entrenched and being passed down through generations by addressing the root cause of criminality. The Hampshire-based charity operates across England and Wales and celebrates its 30th anniversary this year.
