This is a welcome change in law, addressing the most egregious aspect of forced marriage: child marriage. Thank you @PayzeeMalika, @Pauline_Latham and others who have worked so hard to get to this point. Thank you @SCynic1 for this explanatory thread.

This week is sexual abuse and sexual violence awareness week. Thank you @YehudisG for founding this week that now has national participation from so many stakeholders (including @ClarenceHouse!) - and thank you for this clear thread on safeguarding and education.

Yehudis G@YehudisG

Thread 🧵

In honour of #SexualAbuseandSexualViolenceAwarenessWeek I've made a series of infographics to share some important info as succinctly as possible.

I'm a big fan of ppl having the right information in order to grow & do better but more importantly -knowledge is power.
