Great meeting with Paul Burnside of the @CSACentre today. Loads to think about & we hope he will be back to see how we evolve. Please checkout their excellent website.

Yp affected by sexual violence say peer support can make a huge difference – yet there is hardly any research on this. Help us find examples of peer support by sharing this call for evidence https://t.co/qymrx4XgkI or get in touch with [email protected]. Thank you!
