About Me

I am a campaign that is looking out for people who feel that they have not got justice from the law, especially in cases of sexual assault and/ or rape. Whether you feel that nobody believed you, or the sentence the offender received was too weak, or if it never even got to court for whatever reason. I want to build up a catalogue of real stories to make a more realistic picture of the law, in order that we can make some changes.

My Interests

Bringing injustice to the attention to all who care, and all who don't

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who can help- whether it's telling your own story, or spreading the word, or just showing support.Email me: [email protected] if you prefer privacy. (By the way, if I add you, don't think I'm being rude, suggesting you've committed an offence or suggesting that you're a victim. I just want to help if I can, and would love it if you would accept my add to show your support)

Music:

1 in 10 women don't report assault for fear of not being believed

Movies:

Less than 7% of REPORTED rapes end in a conviction

Television:

It happens to 1 in 4 women, you know.

Books:

This could happen to your sister, girlfriend, mother, you.

Heroes:

Join me.
