We’ve had so many amazing entries to our art competition!

Adults and children from the age of 13 can enter the competition to help support important conversations about “honour”-based abuse - how to notice it and do something about it.

“Shame” means so much more within certain communities. Families can use any means to control their family members - whether it’s psychological abuse or physical abuse, the harm caused in the name of ‘honour’ can be devastating and life-long.
What does “shame” mean to you?

If periods, sex and relationships are not talked about within households, young people assume these issues are a taboo. Everyone needs accurate health information.
How will you start to talk about these topics at home?
