It's sexual abuse & sexual violence awareness week. In Scotland, you can now self-refer for an NHS forensic examination after a rape or sexual assault. We keep DNA evidence for up to 26 months, giving you more time to decide about reporting to police. nhsinform.scot/turn-to-sarcs

💯 Rape Crisis England & Wales 💪🏽 I recently challenged a 👮‍♂️ who asked a rape victim “how did you react when he had sex with you?”. Afterwards, I asked the officer privately why they used the word sex. We went through this & I also explained that “reported” is preferable to “alledged”.

LOL! It’s not our fault we are good at campaigning. We all do this voluntarily and are students. The “entire Scottish political establishment” is on our side because everyone is united against harassment of patients and staff at the gates of healthcare facilities.☺️

The legal system is currently one of the biggest abusers of women "Worn down and violated by the process" is standard for victims which ensures conviction rates remain unacceptably low You are abused twice Once by the perpetrator and a second time by the system

TRIAL BY MEDIA Drawing parallels to Scottish witch trials, this illustration by Zoe Stromberg makes us think about how women are often labelled as liars in the media. @roseyproject worked to create illustrations on how media portrayals of sexual violence can impact survivors.

It’s time to spread the campaign for free court transcripts for rape survivors to England and Wales! Access to court transcripts is essential to hold inappropriate defence behaviour to account, and ensure victims fully understand the process. Sign & share! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6422…

I was told I had to pau £7459.20 to get trial transcripts where I am the rape victim. Charlotte Meijer started a petition to make court transcripts free for victims. Sign it. Repost it. SORTED. Let's do this! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6422…

The hardest thing to deal with is when you are in the classroom, explaining the legal definition of rape and sexual assault and you see a girls eyes widen as it suddenly occurs to them that an incident that took place with someone she knows is defined as rape
