Glasgow City Council and Glasgow Girls Club, a social good media agency and youth service provider, have launched a powerful new campaign to raise awareness of violence against women and girls, as well as highlight information about the available support services.

At the heart of the campaign, is the short film, ‘Where We Stop’ written by actor, writer, Royal Conservatoire of Scotland graduate and Glasgow Girls Club alumni, Molly Geddes. The compelling 6-minute film aims to raise awareness about violence against women and girls amongst young women and direct them to information, support, and services available in Glasgow. The film tackles themes relating to violence against women and girls head-on, highlighting the real experiences of those affected by the issue, including the theme of coercive control and domestic abuse for young women.
