J.K.Rowling is one of the many celebrities who have donated shoes for an exhibition to highlight the issue of domestic abuse. The 104 pairs of footwear represent the number of women killed each year as a result of such abuse. The items will tour Forth Valley to mark "the start of a 16-day international campaign aiming to eliminate violence against women." Each pair will appear with a note from the owner. Other pairs of shoes on display come from those who have died at the hands of their partners.

Jess: wow! That is a lot of shoes ~~and sadly, a lot of domestic abuse; scary to think how many more cases have not been reported~~! *wonders how many pairs of shoes Jo owns*
