Harassed

Samantha, Age 45, 2024
Working at a hotel for asylum seekers and a male colleague said some things about my body which I won’t repeat. I continued to work there until June 2025, that member of staff still works there.

Groped, Sexually Harassed

Multiple across years
Males touching my lower back to move past or closer to a bar. “Accidentally” grazing my breast in places with space. Literally over years, everywhere, always since I was 18, I’m now 35. This happens EVERY time I go to a pub after 5pm.

Grabbed, Groped

Age 24, 2015 Walking back to my family’s table with drinks from the bar on a very busy and crowded night, my hands full of drinks and a band playing loudly. While most people in the bar queue parted to let me through as we all do, one guy grabbed my vulva with his whole fist and squeezed...

Raped

Age 32, October 2018
I was walking in the early hours in the city centre when a man would not let me walk home. He grabbed me up against a shop window and kissed me. He then forced me around the corner and raped me. When I tried to escape he pulled me back by my hair.

Intimidated

Lucy, 19, September 2025
I was on the 68 bus and an old man kept on turning round and smirking at me and then continued to get his phone out to take a video of me. I felt so uncomfortable, I left the bus before my stop thankfully I wasn’t followed.

Intimidated, grabbed

23, 2025 I was waiting for my tram when 2 men started talking to me. One was telling me how he’s barred from most bars in town for getting in fights and trying to drug and rape women. He told me he sells drugs and weapons and began lifting up clothing to show me his scars. Then he went to...

Raped

Jade, 17, 2007 I was set up on a date with an older man (30s), he was a police officer so I thought I was safe. He took me for a meal at a restaurant. Then back to my friends boyfriends (who was also older) for some quiet drinks. He raped me after I told him no, and asked him to stop...
