We are a campaign organisation challenging rape myths and their harmful impact on rape survivors.
What are rape myths?
Rape myths are false beliefs about rape and rape survivors. For example, that most rapes are committed by strangers or that someone who was 'genuinely' raped reports the assault immediately.
Rape myths make it harder for survivors to be believed, making them less likely to report their assault to police. And when survivors do report, these myths can influence police and juries, preventing justice.
Myth 1
Women commonly lie about rape
Studies show that only 3% of rape accusations are false — no more than any other crime.
Myth 2
Men aren’t raped
1 in 18 UK men are raped. That’s 1.34 million men!
Myth 3
It's only rape if they fight back
Freezing is a common trauma response. Many survivors are unable to move or speak during an assault.
Our Goals

We create digital and guerrilla campaigns that change the narrative around rape, correcting misinformation and ending victim-blaming.
Reform the law 🏛️
We fight for policies that will improve justice outcomes for rape survivors.
Support Survivors 👩🏾🤝👩🏼
We provide a safe space where survivors can share their stories without fear of victim blaming, shame or doubt.
