A new non-government organisation, The Backbone Collective, has launched fighting the battle against domestic violence in New Zealand.  The organisation gives a voice to women survivors of violence to help push change in the right direction.  Using surveys gives the organisation a chance to hear what the women who have suffered or are suffering need in order to feel safe enough to speak out. 95bFM reporter, Tess Barnett, spoke to Deborah Mackenzie from The Backbone Collective about the state of domestic violence in New Zealand and what they believe is critical to bringing change.
