💙 Respect Starts With Us – Programme Complete 💙
We couldn’t be prouder of these young men from Hillcrest Trust Youth Club as they complete our 6-week Respect Starts With Us programme. 👏
Over the past weeks, they’ve shown real maturity, openness and courage — engaging in honest conversations, challenging harmful attitudes, and learning what it truly means to be respectful, responsible and accountable.
Their pledges reflect a deep understanding of how violence against women and girls can be prevented — by noticing when someone feels uncomfortable, stepping in safely, challenging sexist language, supporting others, understanding consent, and knowing when to involve trusted adults.
This programme is about more than awareness — it’s about action. And these young men have shown they are ready to be part of the change.
We’ll genuinely miss seeing them each week, but we’re so proud of the commitment, empathy and leadership they’re taking forward.
An absolute inspiration 💙
