Message from RASAC P&K

Message from RASAC P&KOct 31: We have recently became aware of events and discussions connected to a speaker and group who were hosted locally at Abertay University- Dundee. We want to thank everyone who reached out to us to share their concerns and to make us aware of what has happened. We understand that the presence of this group and the deeply harmful views they promote, including the minimisation of sexual violence, the denial of survivors’ experiences, and openly misogynistic and discriminatory beliefs have caused real distress and anger in our community...

What Were You Wearing Exhibition - 16 Day of Activism 2025Oct 7: For the second year running we are holding this exhibition as provides a tangible response to one of our culture’s most pervasive rape myths. “What were you wearing?” This terrible myth insinuates that people’s, but especially women’s, clothing is some how responsible for sexual violence. This exhibition aims to show how absurd this concept is and how in reality the only person at fault is the perpetrator.

We have recently became aware of events and discussions connected to a speaker and group who were hosted locally at Abertay University- Dundee. We want to thank everyone who reached out to us to share their concerns and to make us aware of what has happened. We understand that the presence of this group and the deeply harmful views they promote, including the minimisation of sexual violence, the denial of survivors’ experiences, and openly misogynistic and discriminatory beliefs have caused real distress and anger in our community. For anyone who has experienced sexual violence, we know that this may feel especially painful and triggering. It is deeply concerning and disappointing that a group who openly advocate for convicted rapists and sex offenders were given a platform in an educational setting. We will be reaching out to the Principal of Abertay University to express our concerns and the serious impact on students and the wider community. As an organisation, we want to be absolutely clear: 👉We stand firmly with survivors. 👉We reject all forms of violence, hatred, and discrimination. 👉We will continue to create and protect spaces that are safe, inclusive, and supportive for all survivors and for everyone affected by this. If you are finding this difficult, please remember that you are not alone. Support is available. You can contact us directly through our phone line, sending us an email or by arranging to visit our centre. We are here to listen, to believe you, and to support you. ☎Helpline: 01738 630965 💻Support Email: support@rasacpk.org.uk We can’t always prevent harmful voices from entering our community, but we can continue to counter them with empathy, truth, and care — for survivors, and for one another. Over the coming days and weeks, we will be sharing additional resources and information on how to support survivors of sexual violence, as they navigate the many impacts this event has caused, such as disbelief, self-blame, shame, and silence. #rasacpk #IBelieveYou #consent #listenbelievesupport #itsnotok #perthandkinross #endsexualabuse #endsexualviolenceFor the second year running we are holding this exhibition as provides a tangible response to one of our culture’s most pervasive rape myths. “What were you wearing?” This terrible myth insinuates that people’s, but especially women’s, clothing is some how responsible for sexual violence.

WWYW has been recreated on six continents thousands times since 2017. Now in Perth and Kinross for the second year. 📢Outfits featured in this exhibition have been recreated from the stories of survivors. *content warning* Some people, especially survivors may find this exhibition difficult or distressing.

Take yourself on a self-care date and identify a time when you can just relax. Use your ‘me time’ to watch a favorite TV show, listen to music, put on a face mask or have a bath. 👉Review your goals. Tracking your progress is just as important as setting goals. What one thing went well? What have you learned about yourself? What does reducing alcohol/substance use feel like and how do you want to continue? 👉This week officially marks the end of Go Sober for October, but progress doesn’t have to stop here! How about November? 💜We are here… Free, confidential, non judgemental support for women, transwomen and young people living in Perth & Kinross. ☎️RASAC Helpline -01738 630965 Leave a message and we will call you back as soon as possible.
