Fundraise For Us

Every five minutes in the UK someone experiences rape, attempted rape, or sexual assault by penetration. And that is only adults. 15% of girls and 5% of boys have experienced sexual violence by the time they are sixteen. Our core aim is to ensure that society supports all survivors effectively and takes responsibility for ending sexual violence. But we can’t do it without the hard work of our fundraisers.

We all have the power to make change!
