6th December- Young Women
There are a lot of myths surrounding sexual and domestic abuse among teenagers. 27% of teenage girls aged 13-17 have experienced sexual violence in their relationships according to data from Refuge our domestic abuse support service provider. We want to raise awareness of healthy relationships within the borough.
Refuge’s specialist Youth Advocates support young women to rebuild their lives following abuse, they can also signpost to other specialist services.
Arc Theatre run a project called raised voices to empower young women and talk about current issues affecting young women today.
