Our Background

How We Got Here

In 2022 Te Waipounamu Riders Against Domestic Abuse Trust was born. It was developed by a group of riders who had all taken part in past South Island White Ribbon rides, carrying the kaupapa of stopping men's violence against women.

The riders realised that to continue this important work they were going to need to create an entity to raise funds to allow this important work to continue. The trustees and riders are all volunteers, from all walks of life, who give of their time freely because of their committment to the cause
