Today we are launching a fundraising campaign to support victims of #domesticviolence. All you have to do is draw a hand with the national domestic abuse helpline 0808 2000 247 with the hashtag #YouAreNotAlone. Share the image on social media, tag five and donate five!

If you work/volunteer/campaign in the sexual violence space then this from Alison Phipps is essential reading. I hope it’s a catalyst for lots of reflection about the extent to which we prop up the very systems and power structures we say we’re trying to change.

here is a master thread of resources/books/important twitter threads/political education/info on protests/mental heath + self care tips that i have been gathering over the past couple days:

We have it on good standing that we have until TOMORROW to urge the Prime Minister to not give the greenlight to damaging plans around trans equality and dignity - please write to him using our tool here

We're officially 1 year old! A huge thank you again to everyone who has supported NOMC over the last year. We've put together an overview of everything we have planned for the summer including for our first joint online convention (22nd-25th July). notonmycampusuk.co.uk/post/1-year-an…

From student feedback, we've updated the roles available for both committees including for students in STEM, PhD Students. forms.gle/mpCR9PXfMSc4nF…

We’re electing in a new team for the coming academic year. If you're interested in being involved please make sure you join our society by the 24th June (durhamsu.com/groups/it-s-no…).

I'm looking to connect with others who are researching sexual violence in universities/colleges. Put info on your research below and let's connect! 👇 Academic Chatter™ #AcademicTwitter #phdlife #sexualviolence #CampusSexualAssault

Dr Megan Reynolds Academic Chatter™ We are in the process of developing a postgraduate research hub for those researching domestic and sexual violence - including in uni contexts! Would love to have you on board with this if you’re interested - and would be great to hear from anyone else working in this area!

NOMC UK is a national network of students, campaigns, societies & officers working to tackle sexual violence & abuse. We are developing a cross-institutional research network for postgraduates working on #SexualViolence & #DomesticViolence. Please comment/RT if interested!

Calling all student organisations, campaigns, groups and activists who are focused on tackling sexual violence, domestic violence, and or are supporting surivivors. Please DM us if you would be interested in being involved. #MeToo

We are proud to announce our first online convention in collaboration with a wide range of amazing groups coming together to help equip incoming student leaders and activists in tackling sexual violence and supporting survivors!

Repeat after me... bribing low income students to stay away and make room for those who can afford to come to Durham is NOT a substitute for making college accommodation affordable

We've created a joint #16Pledges Campaign Booklet with the European Students' Union (ESU) and UCC Feminist Society with links to all of the pledges and solidarity graphics for social media and guidance for how NUS and SU Officers, Staff within Institutions, Student Groups and Students can be involved.

Here is a link to the booklet docs.google.com/document/d/1dn…
