Light the Night walk planned for Wellbeing Wednesday on DMU campus

By Joe Lubasa

A Light the Night walk is to be held at De Montfort University next week in solidarity with those who have been victims of sexual abuse and to highlight sexual violence awareness week.

The De Montfort Students’ Union (DSU) and DMU’s Mandala Project are collaborating to put on the walk on Wednesday, February 5, which will start from Mill Lane Bridge at 6pm and head to the Leicester Town Hall.

DMU is no stranger when it comes to fundraising and promoting initiatives that benefit others, and the aim of this event is to raise awareness of the issue and to ensure a comfortable environment where people can walk freely without the fear of being attacked.

To aid the initiative, students are being asked to wear brightly coloured clothing or bring decorated placards to hold on the walk.
