Stand Against Rape, Sexual Violence and FGM - join our drop-in event

As part of the 16 Days of Action against Gender-Based Violence, join Sandwell Council and Black Country Women's Aid for a powerful discussion on dismantling harmful societal attitudes toward survivors and exploring how we can collectively create safer spaces.

This event isn’t just about conversation - it’s about support and solidarity.

Alongside an interactive expo stand, a rolling presentation will run throughout the day. We’ve created a warm, welcoming space where you can sit down with us, grab a cuppa, and engage in meaningful dialogue about driving change and promoting digital safety for all.

When: Tuesday 2 December, 10am - 2pm.

Where: The Oak Tree Centre, Tame Road, Oldbury, B68 0JP.

Theme: Rape, Sexual Violence and FGM - Challenging societal attitudes and supporting survivor voices.
