For the 3.8 million Australian adults who reported experiencing physical and/or sexual family and domestic violence since the age of 15, there are so many more who have suffered abuse that has never been reported. 

This year's gala will raise funds for organisations who provide family violence support services.

Last year, we raised funds for Beddown, who support people experiencing homelessness. The Beddown team will provide an update on the night.
