Project Consent video series: Sexual consent

Lucy Whitehouse consent, healthy relationships

Project Consent have made a fun video series – these animated body parts have a handy reminder about sexual consent

Cue Project Consent’s videos on sexual consent! Using several different situations, they show how it’s not okay to go in for sexual contact without checking first. They also show different and realistic ways of saying no or telling someone to stop. It can feel really tricky to say a direct ‘no’, and instead someone may move away, turn away, frown, not look happy or comfortable, or maybe say ‘hey’ or ‘nuh-uh’. A lot of people give and withdraw sexual consent through body language.

But whether you’re part of a loved-up couple or a happily single pringle, campaign Project Consent wants you to remember to check in with each other before making a move:

Whether you’re dancing…

Having a laugh…

Or just chilling out…
