We’re a coalition of women’s support services, researchers, activists, survivors and NGOs campaigning to end all forms of violence against women and girls.
Today, we stood with Jodie to deliver a 73k-strong petition to No 10 calling for more action.
Today is a start, but it is not 'job done'.
Help us keep up the momentum to #StopImageBasedAbuse

We need to prevent abuse rather than waiting until harm is done. This means:
✅ Proper regulation of the tech companies that promote and profit from abuse
✅ Education fit for our lives in the digital age
✅ Funding for specialist services that advocate for and support survivors

Today following months of campaigning by survivor
Jodie, @evawuk.bsky.social, #NotYourPorn, @claremcglynn.bsky.social and @glamouruk.bsky.social, a new law comes into force criminalising deepfake abuse.
This is a welcome and long-overdue step for survivors, but criminalisation alone is not enough.

So when we ask why women don't report rape and abuse, these are the types of systems and structures that victims are up against.
We know it doesn’t have to be this way, and will continue to campaign for rape justice and an end to all forms of violence against women and girls.

It is a reminder that people are more than willing to look away if it benefits them. That when perpetrators are white and powerful, they are able to hide in plain sight, using their privilege to silence and dismiss survivors while they continue to harm with impunity.

The files detail abuse perpetrated by some of the most powerful people in the world.
And while their exposure may feel vindicating to some, it is also a reminder of what so many victims/survivors know - that rich, powerful men can commit horrific offences and get away with it.

We expect the government to do more to ensure tech platforms can't profit from online abuse.
To prevent future harms and guarantee that victims have meaningful routes to redress will mean building on the Online Safety Act to ensure it is fit for purpose.

But it can’t stop here - given the evolving nature of AI-generated harms, tech platforms must be required to take proactive preventative action. Ofcom’s VAWG guidance for tech platforms must be made a mandatory code of practice with consequences for non-compliance. The cost of inaction is too great.

While these features should never have been available to abuse, this win shows how survivors, campaigners and a show of strength from governments can force tech platforms to take action.

Today it was announced that Ofcom will investigate Grok for nudifying women’s images. This could set an important precedent for women and girls, all eyes are on Ofcom to take action and act as a deterrent for platforms that turn a blind eye to the abuse they profit from.
