  14. Sexual Consent = Positive and enthusiastic agreement! • Both verbal signs and body language signs. You can't assume consent. • Somebody must have "capacity" - e.g. not drunk, on drugs or under 16 years old • You can withdraw consent at any time. Everybody has the right to say: "I changed my mind"

  15. Consent Sex without consent is illegal in the UK and called rape, punishable in a law court. Age of consent = 16 years old for men and women. Applies in all relationships e.g.: - long term relationship - marriage - you dated somebody for 3 months - you are going on a date for the first time

  16. Sexual Consent https://www.disrespectnobody.co.uk/consent/signs-to-spot/ If you want to do something sexual with your partner - you have the responsibility to get consent. The responsibility is not with your partner to say ‘no’ if they don’t want to. Talk to the other person. Check if they’re happy. Do not apply pressure to give consent

  17. Unhealthy relationships • If someone forces you to have sex without your consent, this is called rape. Report it to the police. • If someone is abusive, report it to the police • If you need help to report it or further advice, you can get help from a member of SHU staff. • Trained staff to help with wellbeing issues include: • Student Wellbeing Team • Student Medical Centre • Student Support Officers (SSO) • International Experience Team

  18. Case Study • Do both people give full consent or not? • How can you tell if they give consent - what are the verbal and non- verbal signs? • What can each person say and do to improve giving and receiving consent?
