IN response to the letter entitled Comic Relief (Echo, Mar 19) our charity has received substantial funding from Comic Relief which has enabled our organisation to provide specialist counselling to young people affected by domestic abuse.
This service receives a high level of referrals for young people in County Durham and has been successful in helping these young people move on to a happier future.
