The Chief Executive of Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre has stepped down. It follows an independent review which found the centre failed to protect women-only spaces. It was commissioned by Rape Crisis Scotland - after an employment tribunal found the centre in Edinburgh had unlawfully discriminated against an employee - who believed sexual assault victims should be able to choose the sex of those supporting them. Anita Rani hears more from Lorna Gordon, the BBC's Scotland correspondent. Karen Maguire received an out-of-court settlement from South Lanarkshire Council last year after her adoption of a two-year-old boy broke down. She won the payout after her lawyer argued that the council had failed to provide her with sufficient background information on the child and did not support her during the placement. Karen tells Anita why she has decided to speak out. And Anita also hears from Dr Polly Cowan from Scottish Adoption and Fostering, who has separately carried out research into child adoption breakdowns. Visual artist Bharti Kher's new exhibition, Target Queen at the Southbank Centre, features supersized bindis reimagined from their microscopic form to the macro size worn by the goddess, transforming the brutalist building into a powerful feminine force. Bharti joins Anita to discuss the exhibition. Director Fawzia Mirza joins Anita to talk about her feature film debut, The Queen of My Dreams. Set across Karachi and Canada, the film follows Azra, a queer aspiring actress who clashes with—and ultimately reconciles with—her conservative Pakistani mother. Partly inspired by Fawzia's own life, it explores the bonds between mothers and daughters and how gay brown girls can also have an epic Bollywood-style romance.Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Dianne McGregor

Many guests come to the centre due to domestic and family violence, and it provides a safe haven for decision-making and the opportunity to connect with other agencies. Accommodating pets at the centre is a crucial part of a woman's decision to leave an unsafe home, as often the fear of leaving a pet that could also be in harm's way will prevent them from taking that step. In almost 6 years of operation the Vinnies Women's Crisis Centre has accommodated more than 5,500 women, children and pets. More recently, with the rental crisis and shortage of affordable accommodation, guests are staying much longer as there is simply nowhere else for them to go. As part of Vinnies' work more broadly, they have been working with the sector to advocate for fairer rent laws and greater investment in social and affordable housing. With the funds generously donated by Chatters at the last live event in Adelaide, children staying at the centre have been able to participate in the Ready Steady Go sports program during school holidays. For safety reasons, some children are unable to leave the centre, so the Ready Steady Go activities provide a much-needed release. The Vinnies team is grateful for the support of Chat 10 Looks 3.

The response to sexual violence and abuse arose largely out of the feminist movement in the eighties, where women got together in groups and many disclosed their traumatic experiences.For fifteen years Galway Rape Crisis Centre was the only organisation in Galway providing such support services. Initially all services were run on a voluntary basis, until, in the late eighties, grants were secured from the Health Board funding a certain amount of paid hours.Organisational ChangeStarting in the late nineties, GRCC has undergone a process of organisational change. The Centre moved from the original collective structure to operating under the direction of a Board of Management. This was to comply with not alone best practice in the sector but also to comply with the charities regulations. In 2006, Galway Rape Crisis Centre incorporated the services of MASC at our own premises, and we now see male clients and employ male staff.The Sexual Assault Treatment Unit (SATU)The Sexual Assault Treatment Unit (SATU) opened its doors in Galway in 2009. The SATU provides a multidisciplinary response to sexual assault and rape, bringing together the Gardai, medical staff, and GRCC Psychological Support Team.The SATU gives essential care and forensic support to people who have been the survivors of sexual assault and rape. GRCC provide a 24 hour, 365 day a year psychological support service for survivors of recent sexual assault and rape.Web:https://galwayrcc.ie/facebook:https://www.facebook.com/GalwayRCC.org/twitter: @GalwayRCCinstagram:https://www.instagram.com/galwayrapecrisis/?hl=enLinkedin:https://www.linkedin.com/company/galway-rape-crisis-centre/?originalSubdomain=ieTusla: https://www.tusla.ie/services/domestic-sexual-gender-based-violence/Donations: https://www.idonate.ie/177_galway-rape-crisis-centre.html#podcast #interview #galwayrapecrisiscentre #grcc #rape #sexualabuse #sexualassault #sexualeducation #ireland #pornographytruths #consent

REPLAYED CONTENT FOR PRIDE MONTH: Jason Masters was a married father of two children who discovered later in life that he was gay. Jason discusses his journey of understanding his sexual identity and how he had to come to terms with this and aligned his Christian faith with his acceptance of himself. Jason shares the experience of seeking therapy and then having to come out to his wife and how they worked through this significant event as a family. Jason talks about how there is a gap in the support available for teens who discover that they have a gay father and he feels his kids would have benefited from this kind of support in the early days when he told them he was gay. Jason reveals that he was bullied as a child and had an explosive father, and this coupled with his suppression of his sexuality, led to some mental health issues. He praises the support that he had from medical professionals and also from his church community. Jason has become an accidental activist in the Uniting Church and wants to add value to the community. He is a youth worker in his church and is also working to elevate social justice issues in both the executive world and the local community. He is a wonderful role model for any LGBTQ+  people in the Christian community and his story is inspirational and thought provoking.
