Creative Leaders Training

We offer training and mentoring for emerging and experienced CSA survivor artists to work creatively within the survivor community and step into cultural leadership. 

 

Between 2023 – 2026, we trained and mentored over 40 CSA survivor artists.

Pop-up Cultural Spaces

We create multi-day in person events for survivors and allies to create, share and build community through workshops, exhibitions, open mic events, social gatherings and a varied performance programme of comedy, music and spoken word. 

 

Our community lacks permanent spaces to gather in so we have taken over arts and community centres, reclaimed disused shops and an abandoned pub to make our own temporary spaces.

 

 

An ABC of CSA

An ABC of CSA is a collaborative artwork co-created with over 40 survivors and illustrated by Imogen Harvey-Lewis. 

The 26 cards are a creative resource to support better conversations about child sexual abuse. They sing with the wisdom and creativity of survivors.

Find out more about our An ABC of CSA training.

 

You can also buy the cards from our shop (coming soon).

Zebra Day CSA

Zebra Day CSA is an annual CSA Survivor Pride event that takes place every year on 31 January. 

 

Created by Viv Gordon Company in 2024, the day was inspired by the ABC of CSA cards, where the Z card stands for “feeling like a zebra in a world of giraffes.” 

 

We believe every zebra’s pattern is unique, just like every survivor.

 

Zebra Day CSA brings survivors and allies together in solidarity to bear witness to the CSA survivor community, challenge stigma, celebrate collective survival, wear and share zebra print and create art in response to the annual theme.
