Hundreds of demonstrators gathered in Cardiff on Wednesday for a march promoting the elimination of domestic violence.<\/p>\n

The event drew over 200 people, who gathered at prominent Riverside homeless charity Llamau<\/a> and marched 30 minutes north to Llandaff Cathedral in an effort led by Bawso<\/a>, a black and minority ethnic women’s service group.<\/p>\n

“It’s to raise awareness, really, to stop domestic violence against women,” said Sibusisiwe Mbwembwe, a Bawso representative. “So if you heard the chants, we were saying, ‘Zero tolerance to domestic violence.'”<\/p>\n
