When we run sessions in schools, youth movements, and universities, we encourage interesting discussions about boundaries and why they’re so important. Understanding, setting and respecting each other’s boundaries is a foundation for any healthy friendship or relationship🙌

Spotting the signs of an unhealthy relationship can be difficult. That’s why we’re sharing with you our list of relationship Red Flags and relationship Green Flags, to check whether these behaviours are in your relationships.

We’ve been busy delivering almost 100 sessions to over 2500 students in the past few months! We asked some of the students in our sessions what they hope for in their future relationships and here are their amazing responses🙋‍♀️🙋 💬

Thank you for having us in yesterday @JCoSSIJE! We’ve had brilliant discussions with Year 11 students about what sexual violence looks like and how to create a consent culture. Wishing them all a great summer!

In our sessions at JFS we’ve had some fantastic discussions about consent, harassment and the cultures surrounding these topics. This pyramid is one of the great examples of what students learnt in the sessions and what they believe is necessary to change the culture👏

[Safer Dating @saferdatingJWA]

What do I think will help me for my future relationships?

“Knowing what’s right and what’s wrong, even on the slightest scale”

“Communication and trust”

“Understanding abusive behaviour”

“I will know how to communicate with my partner if I feel uncomfortable at any time”
