The Rosey Project writes:
" We at the Rosey Project Community have created four zines in which we document through art, poetry and narrative our experiences of sexual violence, how it has impacted us and how we have coped with it. We hope that what we have written will be helpful for other young survivors, and help people like you to understand the impact of sexual violence on young people. On the 2nd of December we will be hosting a launch event to showcase our work. We will have a whole range of experiences for you including:
An introduction from Roza Salih, well known Glasgow activist and former "Glasgow Girl" Young people from the group and their friends will do readings of the work in the zines Music from Heir of the Cursed. There will be a panel discussion with the opportunity to ask questions of the group, compered by Christina McKelvie Minister for Older People and Equalities at the Scottish Government Fantastic vegan food and cakes provided by Hygge Catering and Allium Catering
We are really grateful to the amazing sponsors for our zine and the event including: The Copy and Print Shop; Drygate; Arnold Clark; Hygge Catering and Allium Catering. We are also really grateeful to the DWF Fund and the Austin and Hope Pilkington Trust for their donations. "

It is the Prevention Programme for Glasgow Rape Crisis. Rosey also provides support for young women who are survivors of rape, sexual assault or childhood sexual abuse or who are experiencing sexual bullying.
You can refer yourself for support or a worker can refer you.
