'Don't suffer in silence' says Manx charity
More than a third of all referrals to Victim Support Isle of Man involve sexual abuse and violence.
Thirty-four percent of people seen by the Manx charity for this reason are under the age of 18.
Today (5 February) marks the start of Sexual Abuse and Sexual Violence Awareness Week.
Chief Executive Lorna Trevethan told Manx Radio they want victims to feel empowered to speak out:
