About Me

Hi, My name is Rosie, and I am a survivor of gang rape. I have set up this space for women and men to come together who have also been sexually assulted. I am not a victim I am a survivor and would like to stress this is a site to help people move on and realise they can get control of their lives again.I am based in the UK and I have found a lack of sites and groups like this for people here. I hope I am not alone in wanting to support and meet other survivors like me.One thing to be wary of (as you probably know!) Is people online may not be who they say they are so excersise caution when talking to other people and if you do meet people from here make sure you are in a safe public place.Lastly I would like to inform you that I am not a councellor, I have no training and am not associated with any official assosiation. I can therefore only reflect on my own experiences and try to offer support to those who understand this.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:
