They will be joined by Fiona Drouet, MBE, and CEO and founder of EmilyTest @Emilytest12, who will speak about the loss of her daughter, Emily Drouet, following her experience of domestic abuse. Patricia Downey, who lost her daughter Michelle to suicide following abuse, will share a poem written by Michelle.
