Forty Voices, Forty Years: Learning through listening

This booklet is designed to promote discussion and understanding of some of the key concerns in the specialist violence against women, domestic abuse and
sexual violence sector in Wales and beyond. It contains stories that highlight key issues for the sector. Each story has been selected as a starting point for discussion and is followed by some prompts that may help you to think about how this is of relevance to you and your organisation. Most importantly, these stories put women’s voices at the centre of the debate and are shared here to ensure that the voices of survivors and activists are at the forefront of improving provision and services. Some of the stories shared here have been anonymised.
