About This Programme:

Based: Regional

Interactive, lawyer-led workshops on the meaning of consent (legal and non-legal), various sexual offences, bystander intervention, the age of consent, responding to disclosures and ways to obtain help.

The Schools Consent Project aims to normalise consent conversations in order to challenge toxic attitudes, reduce sexual offending rates and create a more responsible and respectful society from the grassroots up. Employing a factual and objective approach, it addresses subjects that can otherwise feel challenging, sensitive or simply taboo, whilst giving young people agency, enabling them to fully understand the law around sex and consent in order to make informed and sensible decisions for themselves.
