Dear Survivor…..
Perhaps this is the most important section of our whole website…….
Here is where I will share YOUR stories.
The REAL survivors…..YOUR stories……YOUR heartache……The stories of YOUR sexual abuse…..Stories of how YOU have been failed by the police, the cps, the courts, social services……Share how this has affected YOUR life….
This is a place where YOU can tell the world of your own journey, how you have been affected, in your own words and completely anonymously.
