police unit with specialist officers means the investigation of this horrific
crime is now a lot better. But there is still more that has to be done so
victims can have confidence in the legal process. Many victims don’t
report to police because they feel they won’t be believed, or they will have to
endure a brutal court process which violates them again. This can’t
continue – we need to seriously look at the criminal justice system to make
sure it meets the needs of victims and give them the confidence that coming
forward is the right thing to do. Organisations like Trafford Rape Crisis,
which provides real and necessary support to victims, are critical to ensuring
this happens.”<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

support women who’ve suffered sexual assault or abuse. The effects of such an
attack can be traumatic and long-lasting – often women find it difficult to
talk about an attack, fearing they won’t be believed, or because the memories
are so terrible. I want all professionals to be able to help women seek the
support they need, and women to know they’ll be treated with dignity. No woman
should ever have to suffer attack or abuse, and I’m pleased Trafford Rape
Crisis are taking action to inform the community about women’s wellbeing and
safety.”<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

Trafford Rape Crisis had the pleasure of joing thousands of our sisters to march together in solidarity, whilst 'speaking out' about the need to end sexual violence agianst Women and Girls.<br />
Million Women Rise state in their press release;<br />
<br />
"More than 10,000 women and children will take to the streets of central London on <strong>Saturday, 9 March, 2013. </strong>The
march, organised by Million Women Rise (MWR), is holding up a mirror to
the truth of male violence against women in all its forms, bringing
women together to say enough is enough.<br />
<br />
Women from across the UK will meet at <strong>12 noon </strong>outside <strong>Selfridges on Oxford Street </strong>making their way to <strong>Trafalgar Square </strong>at <strong>3pm </strong>for the rally.<br />
<br />
This year we have already seen the rape of millions of women
throughout the world and we are only in March. We have heard the German
authority’s apologies to a teenage girl for sending her to a brothel to
get work. <strong>We saw the gang rape and murder of a 17 year
old girl in South Africa and the protest from our sisters there. We have
witnessed the Irish government commit murder of a woman who was denied
her human right to an abortion. Indian women continue to expose the
violence they experience after the gang rape of a young woman who is now
dead. Women in Egypt have spoken out against state sponsored violence
against women. UK Government statistics revealed less than one rape
survivor in 30, who goes to the Police in the UK, will see her attacker
brought to justice. We cannot forget women in DR Congo or the British
Government support for Rwanda and Uganda, two Governments named by the
UN as assisting, arming and directing militia’s in the east of DR Congo
responsible for mass rape in this war for mineral wealth."</strong><br />

On Friday 8th March we were invited along to celebrate International Women's Day with pupils from Stretford High School and other local High Schools from the local vicinity.<br />
TRC had a chance to discuss and explore with young girls and boys the work which Trafford Rape Crisis is doing within the community of Trafford.<br />
It was a great opportunity for us to meet our next generation and hear what they had to say about violence against women, abuse and hear about how this is integrated into their current education.<br />

Women were invited to try out new fun sports, keep fit activities and learn how to make delicious healthy food. Trafford Rape Crisis held an Arts stall with Barbara our artist in residence and we invited everybody to join us and make a handmade card for a woman in your life. Lots of people took the opportunity to make mothers cards, children made their own wonderful artistic creations too. We also invited people to sign a huge banner created by TRC; asking people to write anything about being a woman and or International Womens Day...the result was a wonderful piece of art with some amazing comments which were able to showcase at the launch of our Black Asian and Minority Ethnic Women's services at the <a href="http://www.traffordrapecrisis.com/Conference.html" target="_blank">Declaring the Activism of Black Feminist Theory Convention</a> the next day.<br />

Mary was trafficked into the UK from Nigeria in 2004 and has suffered years of abuse, exploitation and forced prostitution. The UK has refused Mary's claim for asylum.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Members of TRC spoke at the launch of her asylum campaign, organised by </span><a href="http://www.rapar.org.uk/index.html" style="font-family: inherit;" target="_blank">RAPAR</a><span style="font-family: inherit;"> on Friday 30 March 2012, saying "</span><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">Mary’s story is indeed one of unspeakable suffering, and infinite courage…and it reflects exactly the types of issues that we at Trafford Rape Crisis wish to support women and girls through via our newly established Black and Minority Ethnic women’s services.... </span><span style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">The ways in which women are physically, emotionally and sexually violated and survive these experiences need to be understood in relation to racism and those other weights of oppression that press us down. In other words, Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic women survivors of this racist patriarchy have specific issues and needs which require specific strategies, specific knowledge and specific forms of action...</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">We hereby declare our full and unconditional support of this campaign, and we will continually strive to do everything we can to help keep Mary safe in the UK."<o:p></o:p></span></div><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">We are looking forward to working with RAPAR to develop a support network for women who have been trafficked. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span></div><h2 style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">Please help us support Mary:</span></b></span></h2><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="text-align: justify;">Please join TRC </span>in supporting Mary's campaign to stay in the UK. There is an online <a href="http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/keep-mary-safe/" target="_blank">petition to Keep Mary Safe</a><span style="text-align: justify;"> which you can sign, or contact RAPAR for further information.</span></span><br />
