Today's world brings new harms that demand new life skills. We teach them.
Every day we're exposed to increasingly extreme content online. This is harmful because we get used to it, and when we get used to things, they start to feel like they're okay. Boundaries get blurred, consent becomes confusing and unhealthy behaviours get normalised.
The Sex Lies and Love Project shines a light on how explicit content and other harmful influences impact everyday life, both online & offline.
We work with sporting bodies, schools, colleges and businesses to give talks, workshops and training.
Our mission is to empower people with practical tools and advice that's designed to prevent harm and nurture a healthier future.
The digital landscape is reshaping how young people understand relationships, boundaries and consent.
