You might be afraid of saying or doing 'the wrong thing'. But you don't have to be an expert. We have dos and don'ts on our website to help and support information if you feel that you need to talk to someone: https://bit.ly/3XNBfLm (fb)

🏆 Award Win: Keep Counselling Confidential 🎉 We are honoured to announce that #KeepCounsellingConfidential won Campaign of the Year at the 2025 Sheila Mckechnie Foundation National Campaigner Awards! Run in collaboration with our sisters at Centre for Women's Justice, End Violence Against Women Coalition and Rights of Women, the campaign led to a change in the law that gives greater protection to survivors’ counselling notes when reporting sexual violence and abuse. We’re deeply grateful to the incredible survivors, partners and member Rape Crisis centres who made this change possible. Thank you to the SMK Foundation for this recognition—and to everyone who continues to stand with us. 🔗 Read more: https://bit.ly/4koa0zj (fb)
