coping after sexual abuse

Sexual Abuse

Listen to the item

Ken was sexually abused by a family friend when he was 12 years old. This abusive relationship lasted for several years, only ending, with the death of the abuser when Ken was 18.

This death precipitated within Ken a range of conflicting emotions and understandable confusion. He’s now 26 and is only just coming to terms with his experience.

If you or a member of your family have been in a similar situation to Ken, contact our Actionline on 0800 044 044 for organisations which can help.
