Our mission is to make UK universities and colleges free from sexual assault.

What We Do:

Research

We conduct and publish research on student experiences of sexual assault and misconduct. By gathering data on assaults, reporting procedures, justice outcomes and victims' experiences, we identify where universities are failing. And what must change!

Training

We deliver training for students and staff on:

* Consent and boundaries

* Healthy relationships

* Bystander intervention

* Responding to sexual assault disclosures

Our goal is to equip university communities with the knowledge to prevent and address harm.

Policy Reform

We campaign for student-centred policies that make universities safer. Like mandatory consent training for students, improved lighting on campus, nighttime safety escorts/taxi schemes.

LET’S BRING CONSENT TRAINING TO EVERY UK UNIVERSITY 💪

Today, we’re launching our petition calling for mandatory consent training across all UK universities.

University should be a place where young people learn and grow. But for too many students, it has become a place where sexual violence is normalised.

1 in 7 students experience sexual assault, and more than half of these incidents happen within university settings.

Despite the scale of the problem, consent education is merely ‘advisable’ under current national guidelines. Consent training already exists in some universities, but it is often optional. It's unlikely students with the most misinformed views about sex will voluntarily attend. So the current system fails to reach those who need it most.

Introducing mandatory training would ensure every student knows:

- That consent is and when it can and cannot be given
- How to recognise both verbal and non-verbal communication
- How to communicate and respect boundaries
- How to challenge harmful attitudes and look out for others

By incorporating consent training at all UK universities, we can transform our campuses into safer spaces. The government must act to standardise this across the

Nafisa Ahmed thatxxv came up with the best analogy for consent using £20. Well originally, $20 but we switched it!

Here's consent in a way everyone should be able to understand 💷👊

🚨 Exciting Announcement: We're offering trianing!

A new OfS study found that sexual assault survivors are more likely to seek support from student leaders than university staff.

As a student leader, knowing how to respond to a disclosure in a trauma-informed way is essential. Our 90-minute training equips you to:

- Respond with confidence and care

- Understand the difference between a disclosure and a report (+ your role in each)

- Maintain confidentiality while meeting safeguarding dutie

- Recognise and challenge rape myths

- Support survivors to make choices that are right for them

Our training sessions are offered in-person or online — now at an introductory rate.

Our Approach to Change 🌱

Narrative Change

Narrative change is a transformative process that dismantles existing attitudes towards rape and rape survivors. By challenging rape myths we switch public perception from doubt and dismissal to belief and support.

Policy Reform

Policy reform doesn’t happen in a vacuum — it’s driven by social change! When enough people recognize a problem and demand solutions, the law eventually follows. We support this process by reshaping public attitudes towards survivors.

We fight rape myths with every post! Follow our digital campaigns @thatsstillrape
