Students helping students stay safe.
We're a student-led research organisation working with unions and universities across the UK, Europe, and beyond to make campuses safer.
Three ways we're making a difference
Data, technology, and people working together to build the support systems students actually need.
Student-Led Research
Independent research on campus safety, sexual violence reporting, and support systems. Real data that helps unions advocate for better services.
Hybrid Support Hotline
A 24/7 support system combining trained student volunteers with AI. When a student needs help at 3am, they shouldn't have to wait until Monday.
Volunteer Network
Trained student volunteers across campuses who understand the issues because they live them. Our strength is our people.
The problem is bigger than any single campus
university students experience sexual harassment during their studies
of incidents are formally reported to anyone
don't know where to report or what happens if they do
Every student union is trying to solve this alone. Every university reinvents the wheel. We're here to connect the dots. Sharing what works, building shared tools, and making sure no student has to figure this out by themselves at their lowest moment.
Open research.
Real impact.
All our research is published openly. We believe data should drive decisions, and the students affected by these issues deserve to see what we're finding.
Our country report series documents the disclosure gap across Europe, exposing how far institutions still have to go.

How Universities Are Failing Students on Sexual Violence Reporting
Our flagship report covering prevalence across the UK, Ireland, and Europe. Why survivors don't report, what barriers exist, and the case for a hybrid AI + human support model.
The Disclosure Gap: Germany
Sexual Violence Reporting at German Universities
A deep-dive into Germany's federal landscape, from the landmark ยง177 StGB reform to Berlin's university-specific provisions. Over 85% of incidents go unreported even after legal reform.
The Disclosure Gap: Greece
Sexual Violence Reporting at Greek Universities
How Greece's #MeToo movement drove legislative change, but the gap between policy and practice remains vast. 87% of women say justice is out of reach.
Support when you need it. Not when it's convenient.
Student support is fragmented. Different numbers, different services, different hours. We're building one place students can always reach. Part AI, part trained human volunteers, available 24/7 via WhatsApp.
Text us on WhatsApp
Message our number anytime. Day or night. No app to download, just use what you already have.
Get immediate support
Our AI assistant knows your university's policies, local resources, and reporting pathways. Instant answers when you need them.
Talk to a real person
For conversations that need a human, we connect you with a trained peer support volunteer. Same chat, no repeat explaining.
Your choice, your pace
Anonymous or identified. Formal report or just someone to listen. You control what happens next.
Pilot Programme
We're currently piloting with select universities. Interested in bringing this to your campus?
Express InterestBuilt with student unions, for students
We partner with welfare officers, student unions, and university support services. We're not replacing what you do. We're adding capacity, sharing research, and building tools you can use.
