EDM 360: 40th anniversary of Nexus

That this House notes the 40th anniversary of Nexus, a charity set up in Northern Ireland in 1984, to support people impacted by sexual abuse and abusive relationships; highlights how the organisation supports adults, children and young people across the country who have suffered the effects of sexual abuse and, in addition, provides therapeutic support through specialist counselling, and teaches the importance of prevention work through educational training and workshops in schools and communities; further highlights their RESET aftercare programme, which was launched in April, which finished a year of training over 500 frontline PSNI officers as well as serious crime prosecutors from PPS, to help improve responses to people impacted by sexual abuse; and sincerely thanks all staff and volunteers for their efforts and wishes them all the very best for the future.
