Consent Campaign

Consent is Sexy! Get Explicit.

University can be the most transformational period in peoples’ lives, three years or more of constant learning and self-discovery. For many, part of that journey revolves around sex and relationships.

This campaign promotes a healthy attitude to sex and consent whilst educating people about the meaning of consent and the importance of explicit consent in order to keep everybody safe.

Our aim is for the campaign and its conversations to integrate with and become part of student life. Consent is not something we should be afraid of. The campaign maintains a positive and clear message about consent. We want to encourage meaningful conversations and help break the stigma that surrounds sex. If you have any concerns about what consent is or understanding how to consent in the moment, download our resource here.

As part of the campaign we are giving out condoms and dams, leaflets and do not disturb signs for students in halls of residence as well as stickers in clubs and bars in town which signpost to support and tell people about the campaign.

If you are a survivor in need of support or are worried about a friend - reach out for help. Below are different resources and places you can go to access support.
