The philanthropic organisation, Woven Earth, offers practical support to families surviving domestic violence, including gifting furniture, household items and toys.
Aucklander Kerryn Thrupp founded Woven Earth three years ago and since then 400 families have been helped to set up home and start again.
She says the idea for the organisation came to her when she was staying at a Womens Refuge in Australia with her two young children after fleeing abuse.
