We'd like to reach out to anyone affected by recent circulations on social media. Measures have been put in place to monitor any disturbing content, and we have been liaising with our partners, including the police, and can assure you that there is no legitimacy to these rumours.
However, we are aware that some of the recent news coverage and online circulation may be triggering and upsetting, and we understand that some people may be feeling unsafe. If you have been affected in any way, Live Fear Free is available 24/7 via phone, text, email or webchat (0808 80 10 800, gov.wales/live-fear-free), and at New Pathways we offer support to anyone who has been impacted by sexual violence (www.newpathways.org.uk/for-you/).
We encourage anyone affected to take some time for self-care and you can access our resources on managing triggers and self-care, including support for flashbacks and grounding techniques, via our website: www.newpathways.org.uk/resources/
