Our role is not to act as a general helpline, but to provide legal support to those who feel they have been a victim of someone sharing and publishing intimate images without their consent. If additional emotional support is required, we are able to provide details of organisations that can offer this.
Our aims are:
The uploading of intimate still or moving photography, without consent, is becoming an ever-increasing problem. We are committed to offering a confidential and sensitive environment for victims of revenge porn who are seeking free legal advice. Our team are specifically trained on the developing law in this area, as well as to the sensitivities of those who need our help.
An academic team from Birmingham University are undertaking research into LGBTQ individuals’ experience of Image Based Sexual Abuse. Visit their website to find out more and take part in the study.
Please note that this study is separate to the Queen Mary Legal Advice Centre and our SPITE project.
