VEHICLES within the Rose City will bear a white ribbon sticker in late November as Warwick residents say "no" to violence against women.

Warwick sergeant Shane Reid developed the idea last year and worked with CEO Challenge to help turn his vision into a reality.

White Ribbon Day is held in November each year and the Warwick project started as a way to generate support locally.

Around 500 vehicles carried the white ribbon sticker last year and this year Sgt Reid has blown that number out of the water, with about 4000 stickers to be found across the state.

He said the idea was an easy way for people to help, and Sgt Reid plans to make it even more successful next year.

Local businesses have jumped at the chance to take part and Sgt Reid said people were generally happy to get involved with the important cause.

"Domestic violence is an issue that affects all walks of life and (the campaign) is something the community is very supportive of," he said.

"It is a visual symbol and the idea for people is to raise awareness of domestic violence and to encourage people to report it."

November 25 marks White Ribbon Day, the United Nations' International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.
