	Description:		Sakhi Kendra, a Christian Aid partner since 2003, is an organisation in Uttar Pradesh, India, that campaigns and advocates for women’s rights. Part of this work involves providing a 24-hour phone line, counselling service and an emergency shelter for women who are victims of violence such as rape of dowry death threats. Laura Mead – Christian Aid’s Legacy and Regional Coordinator for London and the South East – visited this project in January 2012. Here she tells of the remarkable courage, bravery and strength of the three social workers who run the emergency helpline.
