Content warning – references to sexual violence
In this episode, Nicole (she/her) interviews Megan (she/her) and Bryony (she/her) from a grassroots project called SLEEC – Survivors Leading Essential Education and Change. SLEEC is a survivor-led organisation that changes conversations, supports survivors and dismantles the roots of male violence.
They discuss how services for survivors of sexual and male violence are not working and the actions they’ve taken to create something survivor led and centered.
They share a ton of wisdom and insight from their experiences with SLEEC from starting a resilience fund for survivors to running courses for men about rape culture and more. We talk about how male violence is an epidemic and the importance of DIY action and mobilising because nothing else is working.
