More evidence of what survivors and those supporting survivors already knew: the criminal justice system isn’t fit for purpose when it comes to sexual violence. Most survivors never report and most of those that do are failed The vast majority of perpetrators get away with it

"I was sexually abused by a male relative between the ages of 6 and 8. Sharing my experiences, and finding others like me who could relate to me was important." Tim has something to say. Read the full story here: jeremyindika.com/stories/tim… @tim_verity

We are 'the epitome of co-production' says @Emmanusquelle formerly FT journalist. We split all royalties 50/50. What do you think @RITB_? Your Rita gets a mention in the book, too!

Today I decided to have a clear out and I found a bracelet that my dad gave me as a teenager. He sexually abused me and had such control over me for so many years but finding the bracelet today really didn't bother me, I just binned it. I've finally moved on, life after #CSA 💜

Finally got around to watching #IMayDestroyYou and I’m blown away. The way it deals with sex, consent and sexual violence, resisting any temptation to sensationalise, is so nuanced, realistic and powerful. Bravo @MichaelaCoel 👏👏

It can be really difficult to understand an abusive person, especially if you care for them, but if you ever feel uncomfortable or unhappy, there is support for you. survivorsuk.org/blog/how-to-…

I strive to be like you guys one day. I want to publish a book about what happened and my recovery. I’m going to school to become a forensic psychologist and hopefully I’ll be a profiler and work for the crimes against children unit of the fbi.

I am on the only active Professional Boxer in the entire World speaking out about Childhood Sexual Abuse. I have facetimes and one to ones to other active Boxers but for whatever reason do not feel they can reach out. This saddens me ❤️ @GaryLineker @vicderbyshire

I attended my first webinar this morning. Very helpful. Always impressed by the work of the Beam Project. There is another chance to attend if you are interested.
A big THANK YOU to those of you who attended this morning's webinar - we had 40 or so participants and some thoughtful discussion at the end. In case you missed it, I'm running it again at 7pm this Thursday evening. You can register here: us02web.zoom.us/meeting/regi… Thanks!
