“We are joining forces to help victims of domestic abuse,” Cottalorda declared on Twitter. Since June 3rd, AS Monaco has been partnered with the Committee for the Protection and Promotion of Women’s Rights. The football club has been lending its facilities free of charge to domestic abuse victims since May.

According to Nice Matin, AS Monaco is providing those who have suffered domestic abuse six bedrooms, a kitchen and a common room until June 30th. The partnership is set to continue but it is not confirmed. In any case, this solution is an extra help alongside the 20 state-provided houses, which are available to single parents and young people at the Princess Charlene foster home.
