We know how important #openjustice is for victims and families. We made some progress with the Govt pilot, enabling victims of rape and sexual offences to access sentencing remarks for free. But this pilot may come to an end next month. Let’s call on Govt to keep it going.

If you’ve survived sexual violence more than once, the justice system might use that against you. The use of so-called ‘victim bad character’ evidence is harming survivors. Join our campaign #BadExperiencesNotBadCharacter to help us change the law. 👉: bit.ly/4moP4KD
