Staying Silent: Unravelling the What, Why and How of Disclosure in Adulthood

Wednesday, 23 September 2026

Staying Silent is a powerful short film by Jeremy Indika, speaker, founder of Something to Say, and expert by experience. The film asks its audience to rethink how they see disclosure of child sexual abuse, and to consider the barriers that may be in place. This webinar provides a unique opportunity to watch this film and reflect on it alongside peers from across services, and to be part of a dialogue that can start to shift attitudes around disclosure in adulthood.
