During the Covid-19 lockdown Roehampton's Professor of Criminology, Aisha K. Gill, is giving vital support to a range of women's charities. 

Prof Gill is the Co-Chair of the End Violence Against Women (EVAW) coalition of charities that exist to support women affected by violence such as domestic abuse, 'honour' crimes and sexual violence.  As well as providing legal support to victims within the criminial justice system, she is now also giving hands-on help delivering emergency food and medicine supplies to women's shelters and refuges. 

The University of Roehampton is proud to support Prof Gill in this important work.
