Continuing the Conversation Beyond SASVAW 2024

This year we lead a Week of Action during Sexual Abuse and Sexual Violence Awareness Week. We want to keep the conversation going beyond this week and are asking everyone to complete our short survey. In it we ask things like – what do you think survivors needs to know about sexual violence and what commitments you would like to hear on tackling sexual violence in the next General Election.

The survey is anonymous and we do not ask for your personal information. Responses to the survey may be used to help us plan our work, communications and campaigns going forwards over the next year.

Pornography regulation, legislation and enforcement – call for evidence

The government is asking members of the public, subject matter experts and organisations to contribute to its call for evidence on pornography regulation, legislation and enforcement.

They want to ensure that ‘any legislation and regulation operates appropriately for all pornographic content, and that the criminal justice system have the tools they need to respond to online illegal pornographic material, and exploitation and abuse in the industry.’

The call for evidence closes on 7 March 2024 and you can access it on the link below.
