Tackling sexual violence and abuse

Improving understanding through education

Through our sexual violence programme, funded by NHS England, we worked with our partner Let Me Know to deliver education sessions to 8,658 young people across seven London boroughs.

We upskilled more than 429 professionals with our training on managing a disclosure of sexual assault, pornography and responding to incidents of sexual harassment.

Our sessions support educational settings and community groups to embed a whole-school approach to addressing sexual violence and abuse.

Building safer campuses

To help tackle harassment on university campuses, Brook launched a new Bystander Intervention course for students. The new e-learning course is designed to empower students and staff with practical strategies to safely intervene in harmful situations and combat harassment and sexual misconduct. It sits alongside our existing Consent course, supporting universities to comply with new legislation on consent training.
