Sexual Violence Awareness Week is a time to highlight support for anyone affected by s*xual assault or s*xual violence, including women and men. π
Help is available if you have experienced abuse, are worried about someone else, or need advice on staying safe. Confidential support, medical care, forensic services and s*xual health checks (including STI testing) can be accessed through specialist services.
You may also see emergency alert test notifications on your phone during national testing. Opting out can help some people keep phones hidden and safe, as these alerts override silent and do not disturb settings.
You are not alone, and support is there when you are ready. ποΈπ©Ίβ¨
