BOOK US FOR YOUR SCHOOL OR COLLEGE
We offer a range of staff trainings and students workshop to equip schools and colleges with the knowledge and skills to tackle sexual harassment. Our team has spent years researching public sexual harassment, talking to young people about their experiences and understanding the complex barriers that exist for schools and colleges aiming to make change. We talk to young people using real experiences they can relate to and we give staff an insight into the issues their learners are likely facing.
SESSIONS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
Our student workshops are offered to year 9 upwards and teach learners to understand and define sexual harassment, to consider its impacts and to understand their role in challenging it.
