In Bath, we are lucky to have Southside Family Project, @voices_charity & Somerset & Avon Rape & Sexual Abuse Support, who work tirelessy to tackle violence against women and girls.

But we can't rely on charities alone. The criminal justice system is simply not performing well enough.

Survivors deserve better👇

For victim-survivors of sexual violence, it can be very hard to stop thinking about the rape or abuse. Always remember:

💡the person who did that to you made the choices
💡you are not to blame
💡your reactions were normal reactions in an abnormal situation

#ListenBelieveSupport

It takes a huge amount of strength to report to the police - we know the vast majority of those impacted by rape never will. To report a rape and not have it charged is devastating.

Survivors deserve more.
