I say no more.
i am here with many of these other beautiful and strong women to ensure that we make a stand against domestic violence! as a survivor of a very violent 3 year relationship i am now free and alot stronger of a person and would like to offer support to people suffering from dv ?
Everyone deserves respect!
We all play a part in ending Domestic violence and sexual abuse in the UK.
It’s time to STOP these offences that have such a massive impact on people’s lives.
Sexual violence is a clear indicator of gender inequality.
I take stand for women and girls because a girl is a human too and I prefer humanity on brutality. Respect to be respected !!
Our daughters should not become victims, too.
It’s time for change
I was emotionally tortured and sexually abused by my wife of 21 years. It’s almost inconceivable and near mythical at that, for men to be abused by a woman, given the patriarchal structure of our society. It needs to be stopped and dealt with strictly. I say no more excuses!
Not all the violence women go through is physical, its verbal abuse, rejection, isolation, intimidation, using children n much more. These forms of abuse are invisible and need immediate attention.
Let us revisit the definitions of abuse and consent remember Love shouldn’t hurt!
I’m a survivor of domestic abuse which why I’m shouting out loudly, NO MORE. No one should suffer from this horrendous crime and we should all stand united in saying, NO MORE!
We witnessed horrendous violence against my mum. We must do everything we can to prevent children needing to break this cycle of abuse.
Let’s come together and raise much-needed awareness about violence!
I was emotionally and physically abused for ten years by my partner. NO MORE EXCUSES, domestic violence and sexual assault needs to STOP
I’m standing up for mum and I. We didn’t do anything to encourage the behaviour of the perpetrators. Domestic violence is deathly.
I was sexually assaulted when I was 18 years old. It’s time for change! I say no more excuses, no means no! It’s time to make a difference!
we have to change culture so that it is the crimes of domestic violence and sexual assault that are taboo rather than the topic.
My ex boyfriend tortured me physically and mentally for 1 year, I lost everything, family friends, money and hope.. Now I’m alive again
I suffered sexual abuse for six years.
I remained silent for many, many years. Today I say no more
I was sexually assault whilst my children were forced to witness it. I now face victim blaming. Enough is enough, NO MORE.
I was sexually, physically and emotionally abused by my stepfather for 10yrs of my childhood life. We need to make a stand… no more
I have met 128 girls in my country who have been sexually abused just like me who simply just want to break free from the bondage of abuse.
I was physically and mentally tortured for 15 years, as was my mother, and my sister. It’s called Honour Based Abuse, but there’s no honour
We are all human being we all suffer physical emotions,psychological emotions we need equal justice.
Carolyn Harris, Labour MP for Swansea East and champion of UK SAYS NO MORE’s Charter on Prevention
We wore blue for UK SAYS NO MORE week! Let’s come together to raise awareness of domestic abuse and sexual violence. Every little helps. #WhatICanDo
We need true media representation. We need better, informative, inclusive relationship and sex education. That’s how we bring about change.
After 24 years abusive marriage I SAY NO MORE and move out. I am not a victim anymore. I am a survivor.
only TOGETHER can we beat Domestic Violence and Sexual Assualt
I was abused and it is wrong!!
They cannot get away with it ever
No one should be made to remain silent.
“I was also in an abusive relationship and my punishment for attempting to leave that relationship was that I lost my children”
No one should be made to feel broken. No one has the right to take away who you are. No one should suffer at the hands of another.
I’m a survivor of sexual assault & NO ONE should live in fear/blame when black and white means b&w and NO means NO ~ let’s become powerful!x
I was a victim of many forms of abuse. I then spent years recovering from EUPD/PTSD, and I lost the people I loved most because of this.
Two women are killed by their partners in an average week in the UK.
Everybody deserves to feel safe.
Nobody should live in fear of their partner, ever.
Our children deserve to live in a #zerotolerance world and that future begins now with us.
NO to domestic violence
NO to sexual assault.
I am a Domestic Violence Survivor
I say no more because I have enough of narcissistic abuse and men getting away with abuse as if they have done nothing wrong
We are tired of seeing perpetrators get away with it! We are tired of seeing the justice system fail victims over & over & over again!!!!!!
I was a Victim. I’m now a Survivor.
There is never an excuse for abuse.
“no one can take away your pain, so dont let them take away your happiness” -Mariska
I’ve seen the extreme pain and suffering caused by domestic violence and sexual assault and it HAS to stop. No one should live in fear.
No One Has The Right To Hurt Me
My ex abused and controlled me in every way !! emotional abuse was worse and affects me more then the assaults and rape he got 11 years rape
Tackling domestic violence is everyone’s responsibility, it is not just individual change, it is a social change.
I stand up against DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
Regardless of difference, or opinions everyone is entitled to a life free of fear and intimidation.
Together we can bring an end line to all forms of violence. It’s time to raise our voices for justice of victims. #TogetherWeAreStronger
#EnoughisEnough together we are united to put an end to all forms of violence and abuse against women and girls .
I spend everyday recovering from the abuse I suffered at the hands of my mum dad and their “friends”. My life shouldn’t be a life sentence.

Domestic violence affects the victim & the children in the relationship.

It simply has to stop! TecSOS supports UK Says No More.
For so long, the power and control of men has dominated, victimised, tortured and, in many cases, taken the lives of women and children.
Because my daughter Jayden Parkinson was murdered by Ben Blakeley on 3-12-13 & I’ll not be silent till my last breath I will tell her story
Too many women. Too many lives. Too much silence. For too long. Things have to change.
NO MORE “But, it just happened one time.” There are NO excuses.
NO MORE silence.
CAWC say NO MORE to domestic violence and sexual assault.
Abuse causes harm and trauma in so many lives…break the cycle; stop the ripples; everyone is safer & happier.
I’m not ashamed anymore and I am writing and speaking out to help end the shame, stigma and silence surrounding sexual violence
No More suffering in Silence
No more suffering alone
Say NO MORE
Do not tolerate any form of abuse
Only together can we stop this!
As a rape survivor no woman deserves to be shamed, victimised or victim blamed for being attacked. The only cause of rape is rapists.
My 17yr old pregnant daughter was murdered by her ex in December 3,2013 and i say no more so no other family has to go through this..
No one should live in fear, no one should be controlled. Domestic abuse is not a private matter, it is everyone’s business!
I am not afraid anymore. I have a voice and I’ll use it wisely, to empower and educate other survivors. #UKSAYSNOMORE
no person should live in fear of violence or assault. #UKSAYSNOMORE

There are no excuses for domestic violence and sexual assault. Becky O’Brien joins UK SAYS NO MORE to celebrate UK SAYS NO MORE Week 2017!
There are several misconceptions and myths about#sexualassault. These often shift responsibility and blame from the perpetrator to the victim. “Why didn’t he fight back?” is something we often hear people ask. There are many reasons a victim/survivor might not fight, but this doesn’t change the fact that sexual assault is sexual assault. #uksaysnomore #nomore#endvictimblaming #togetherwecan
This UK SAYS NO MORE week, Miranda at Safelives wants to see an end to the harmful stigma that prevents victims of domestic abuse from seeking help #TogetherWeCan

Domestic violence and sexual assault are not just “a family matter.” We can all make a difference in ending these issues.
Nobody deserves to experience any form of domestic violence or sexual assault.
Silence is not an option!
Together we can end domestic violence and sexual assault!
Insecurity, depression, job loss, stress…none of these are excuses for abuse. NO MORE excuses.
being a victim and not seeing much justice. i say no more!
Every single victim matters
Leads to inequality
Everyone is entitled to be treated equally and NO one should feel unworthy of themselves as a result of other people’s actions.
I refuse to be beaten down by the sexual assault I was subjected to and the further injustice handed out by our criminal justice system.
No one deserves to be a victim of domestic violence or sexual assault and therefore, we should take a stand to make a difference!
I am a Survivor. I am ready to tell the World my story. I say no more to victim shaming and abuse. Time for survivors to be supported x
I finally found my voice after suffering years of sexual and domestic abuse. Together we can beat this.
I am a survivor of sexual assault. I want to make sure others are not subject to the horror I was and the mental torture I still am. X
I say no more because women’s rights are human rights. I strongly support education and awareness raising on women’s day.
NO-ONE should be subjected to any form of VIOLENCE or ABUSE!
So many around me suffer from abuse in silence. I will fight for them until they are strong enough to fight for themselves. #NotOnMyWatch
See page on IG “Sister of the Baobab Tree: Still Standing After Abuse

Later is too late.
NO MORE excuses, because of the children, culture or immigration status, L❤VE doesn’t hurt, break bones, manipulate or controls SAY NO!
There is never a excuse for this!!
Sexual violence is a clear indicator of gender inequality.
I am HeForShe I respect Every Gender and Every Women
It’s time to speak out against violence.
No one owns you; you belong to you.
It is never ok.
I don’t wish for anyone to ever feel as hopeless, and without value as I once did. And because love should not hurt. I am silent no more!
It’s not OK!
Everyone has the right to be respected and it is not OK. It’s time to raise awareness.
What you accept, you endorse with your silence.
I will not be silent. No More.
We need to show survivors they are humans, not statistics. I say no more because we are not victims, we are survivors.
Our daughters should not become victims, too.
It’s about time we changed things.
I want to break the cycle
no-one should feel scared or threatened in a civilised society
You are braver than you think, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think….
It’s time for change
We never should have been treated this way
Together we can make a difference!
I have been there in that dark lonely scared abusive relationship Say NO More break your silence Freedom awaits you . You deserve to be Free
I want a peaceful and wonderful world where we all are equal. Where humanity’ll be present.
It’s disgusting.
I want violence free world
I want better world for everyone
It starts with a push… never let it get passed that.
disabled women are more likely to suffer from domestic violence and sexual abuse and have far less recourse to justice or services
There is nothing honourable about harmful practices
No one has a right to make choices about another persons body! Time to raise awareness and put a stop to this! #justice #standingtogether
Strongest are those who can break the silence of injustice.
We cannot continue to ignore male survivors of sexual abuse. We need support too!
Domestic abuse ruins lives and breaks up families
When you have been told that you are nothing, you deserve someone to remind you that you are everything, and to believe it always.
Domestic violence is totally unacceptable, being a victim is not a sign of weakness you are stronger than you know. Don’t suffer in silence!
I help speak for the victims. I help give them back their voice.
No one deserves to be abused.
As a survivor, I know how hard it can be for people to believe there are others you can talk to. No more assaults, no more silence.
To remain silent, is to side with the oppressor!
Everyone deserves to be safe
No more excuses
I’m a Survivor and my voice will be heard
You deserve better from life than that. If you see it, speak out. If you suffer because of it, seek help.
It’s time to speak out! No one should suffer in silence.
there’s no excuse for abuse
Being a victim doesn’t make you weak. You’re stronger than you know, and it’s okay to ask for help. People need to know that.
enough is enough!
Silence isn’t an option!
Victims are never to blame! There is no excuse!
It’s time to make a change the way the world and the courts views Domestic Violence & Sexual Assault!!!
i was abused and threatined and isolated
nobody should suffer at the hands of another
rape is a serious problem and we should all encourage victims to get help healing and education and empowerment!
Victims have the right to overcome the fear of feeling “lost,” a helping hand and a couple of ears can truly make a difference.
although crisis intervention “saved” me from homicide or further serious injury, I lost my life when he abused the private Family Court
together we can change the way people treat each other now and in the future
No one deserves to experience domestic violence and sexual assault.
Because no one deserve to live in the hell!
No-one should live in constant fear. I was lucky I survived…not everyone does. #freetobe X
everyone has the right to live without abuse.
Enough is enough!
Break the silence no one should suffer in silence in this day and age!
I say no more because it is important to put an end to the excuses, to violence, sexual assault, discrimination
