In this conversation we will examine the immediate, mid-term and long-term effects of sexual assault. We will also examine the short-term treatment that pre-hospital clinicians should consider. We will also examine some of the long-term support that is available for victims of sexual assault. We will also examine elements of safeguarding, care pathways, and forensics that work on a co-aligned basis with psychological support mechanisms. To do this I have Jayne Butler with me.

Jayne has worked in social justice-focused organisations for almost 20 years.

Originally from Angola, Belmira came to the UK from Portugal and settled in Newcastle. She has been volunteering with The Comfrey Project for 10 years, which works with refugees and asylum seekers on allotment sites across Newcastle and Gateshead. Belmira manages the garden at one of the sites, improving her English. It’s all in her name - Belmira means ‘nice view’ in her native language. When she’s in the garden she forgets the time and forgets her problems. Belmira believes we could all gain a lot from getting involved in the outdoors.   Join in the conversation online using #BeingtheStory
