Raising awareness about the alarming statistics of incest
This project is dedicated to the memory of my Aunty Helen and my cousin Kellie - Tanya Lee, Founder/Producer
In 2012, a Royal Commission was established to investigate ‘institutional responses to child sexual abuse’, yet there have been no major investigations into child sexual abuse by a family member.
We have created a series of podcasts with real-life, lived experienced stories of incest relayed by the victim/survivor. We want you to understand the reality of this problem.
“I have never known a darker night, I don't even think the moon was out.” - 'K'
As victim/survivors are often uncomfortable telling the details of their own abuse, they have requested comedians, actors, and media personalities to narrate them; not in a comic or witty style, but in their own compassionate distinctive voice.
“Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can change until it’s faced.”
- Fiona O’Loughlin | Comedian
