RASASC to leave X
We will be closing our X account @HelpRASASC in December. Please see our statement from RASASC CEO Daisy Anderson:
"It is becoming increasingly clear that RASASC's organisational values are at odds with X, and the concerning increase in misogynistic and victim-blaming content does not allow us to communicate with our followers in a safe, healthy and inclusive environment.
"Victim blaming is something we as an organisation have worked very hard to dispel within our own communities, juries and the criminal justice system. By having a presence on X, we are allowing these damaging views to reach our followers. For this reason we have decided to close our X account on 6 December 2024.

RASASC was delighted to be invited to be part of the VAWG roundtable discussion hosted by MP Helen Maguire
We’re pleased with the news that children who have experienced child sexual abuse and exploitation are now to be considered in the new Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) strategy, as announced by MP Jess Phillips. The new VAWG strategy was due to be published in the summer, but has now been pushed back towards the end of 2025. We will have to wait until the final strategy is released to see the impact it will have for those concerned. RASASC was part of a large contingent of signatories on an open letter to the Home Secretary, requesting that victims of child sexual abuse and exploitation be included within the VAWG strategy. We are delighted that this action has had a positive impact. Following several delays and a degree of mystery surrounding what will be in the final version, we sincerely hope that the completed VAWG strategy has heeded the advice and recommendations from experts, to deliver an effective and fully resourced plan of action.
