SEPTEMBER 2011

NO-ONE DENIES THAT CHILDREN ARE SEXUALLY ABUSED EVERY DAY, BUT MANY CHOOSE TO IGNORE THE SIMPLE FACT THAT THOSE CHILDREN GROW UP TO BECOME ADULTS, AND EVENTUALLY FIND THEIR VOICE!

WE WILL BE BACK AGAIN IN 2011, WHEN THE ANNUAL MARCH AND RALLY RESTARTS IN CENTRAL LONDON.

Male and Female Survivors, partners, their families, their friends and all supporters are welcome to join us.

WE also want as many survivor agencies to attend next year and make the numbers up. and swell the crowds.

People will HOPEFULLY soon be working to ensure that we meet at Trafalgar Square, and if you need further information, or can help in any way, please call AMSOSA on 0845 430 93 71.

Too nervous to attend? Please try to come along, we're friendly, and if you feel unable to 'show' your face as a Survivor, we always need support in other areas, such as Stewards to 'man' the route we take through the streets of London.

WE'RE BACK, AND LOUD AND PROUD! ~ BUT THIS IS YOUR EVENT!

WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT TOO

The 2011 March and Rally will allow us all to meet up with old and new friends, and despite the reasons for being there, will also allow us some time to have fun.

As always, as many people will be given a chance to speak out, listen to other speakers, and perhaps even just sing your heart out!

If you would like to help, or can help raise much needed funds please contact us, we need every bit of help and support to make this years event even more significant

Please let as many people know, either via your e-mail listing, by letter, or telephone, that the Annual March and Rally is back on, and lets make sure that no-one escapes noticing that we are no silent!

Comments re: this and previous year's March & Rally Against Child Sexual Abuse!

Quotes -

  • 'I'm still buzzing! What a fantastic day! Wish we could have met more of you properly. We were truly moved by the the vulnerability, strength and power that you all showed. By how many people were able to speak for the first time!'

  • 'I had never knowingly been in the company of other survivors until today, and the power and friendship that came from being part of the the march and rally is unbelieveable! I will be there next year, with more of my family'

  • To be with others, like me, who were abused, but who are now so strong, was simply stunning and amazing to experience'

  • 'Exhausting, but exhilarating!'

  • ' It was unlike anything I have ever known! I'm still smiling!'

  • ' In less than 5 mins I felt comfortable, relaxed and very very safe '

  • ' Amazing, inspiring, full of love '

  • 'Inspired...exhilarated...glad...when everyone held hands....to sing along with "Something inside so strong"...I felt alive '

  • I personally thought it was a great day, we gotta do it again next year somehow (all donations gratefully received) if we have helped just one survivor on the road to healing then it was worth it, and always will be for as long as the march continues.

  • ' We Marched and made lots of noise...and more noise..noise...NOISE!.....to all of you who didn't make it to the Rally because you may felt nervous, or anxious etc...I had NO intention of meeting anyone...or marching.....but I did it, and I shall be there next year 100% definitely. WHAT AN EXPERIENCE! '

  • ' Emotions run high though the day. But with the understanding and support of everyone there the day becomes enjoyable and exhausting!

    Although unable to meet this year (2010) we will be back in 2011 so if you joined us in 2009, we hope you had a powerful and healing day too, and we'd love to see you, and your supporters, friends and family again in 2011 in London.....Just think..if everyone there at the march/rally, brought just one extra person!.....
