OUGD505 Brief 2 - Sexual Assault - Who it effects: Women

1 in 4 women are survivors of rape or sexual abuse, that’s 8 million women in the UK.  Safeline have over 20 years’ experience of supporting women while they rebuild their lives.  
People react to traumatic events in all manner of complex ways and you may feel fear, shame, anger, disgust, guilt, numbness, have nightmares or flashbacks.  

Women are unfortunately seen as easy targets in this case something needs to be done about, not just to the perpartrators we should be making women and men more aware on how to protect themselves.
