We've Been Let Down

Police Me Too has been set up by a victim/survivor

Other women and girls have been let down, too. By police officers’ responses after reporting the violence and abuse they’ve been subjected to by men. We also recognise that it’s not just the police but also other areas of the criminal justice system that fails women and girls, including the CPS and the judiciary.

So, this page is to hear, acknowledge and amplify those voices.
