End Violence Against Women Coalition

What End Violence Against Women Coalition does

The End Violence Against Women Coalition (EVAW) is a UK-registered charity (no. 1161132) and company limited by guarantee (no. 7317881), founded in 2005 and headquartered at Unit 221 China Works, 100 Black Prince Road, London. EVAW functions as a coalition of 163+ specialist women's support services, academic researchers, activists, victim-survivors, and NGOs working to end violence against women and girls (VAWG) in all its forms, including sexual violence, domestic abuse, stalking, FGM, forced marriage, honour-based abuse, online abuse, and femicide. The coalition operates across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland with an intersectional feminist and anti-racist approach. Its core products are advocacy campaigns rather than technology offerings: 'Rape Justice Now', 'Schools: It's About Time', 'End Online Abuse', 'Save Your Rights', 'FA and Premier League', 'Anti-Racism Charter', the 'Write to End Violence Against Women Awards' (WEVAW), the 'Building Bridges' principles on engaging men and boys, the Safety by Design Code of Practice, and a reports and resources library. It also operates a 'Find Help' directory connecting survivors to specialist services, a Violence Against Women Explainer educational resource, and a coalition membership programme with formal and associate tiers.

EVAW's business model is a non-profit charitable structure with three revenue streams: individual donations (preset £1-£200 amounts plus custom, monthly or one-time, with Gift Aid recovery through Stripe on its website), organizational membership dues from its 163+ member organizations, and grants from trusts and foundations. Go-to-market motion is community-led and event-driven: building a united movement of specialist services to influence political, economic, social, and cultural change through campaigning, policy shaping, media engagement, webinars, hashtag campaigns, and joint statements with partner organizations. Distribution channels span the website, Twitter/X, Facebook, Instagram, Bluesky, TikTok, email bulletins, press releases, reports, and webinars, with a dedicated media enquiries line. No technology platform, mobile app, or AI/ML capabilities are present; the organization relies on standard CMS and payment-processing infrastructure.

Leadership comprises Interim Director Janaya Walker, Deputy Director Deniz Uğgur (on maternity leave), Head of Policy and Campaigns Rebecca Hitchen, Head of Communications Sinéad Geoghegan, Policy Manager Annie Poland, Senior Public Affairs Officer Laura Morris, Membership and Engagement Manager Elif Ege, Communications Officer Farheen A., and Finance and Office Manager Rosie Parratt, governed by Co-chairs Marianna Tortell and Jasmine Mohammad on the Board of Trustees. The organization has secured notable policy outcomes including a law requiring tech platforms to remove non-consensual intimate images within 48 hours, a new criminal offence for non-consensual deepfakes, and legislative change to prevent police trawling of survivors' counselling notes. In 2026 it received the Sheila McKechnie Foundation Campaigner of the Year award and the Pagefield Digital Campaign of the Year award.
