Story

Did you know that UK has one of the highest rates of teenage pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections, teenage binge drinking and self harm in the whole of the world!

Respect ME is committed to regularly going into schools delivering sessions on SELF IMAGE, BULLYING, SEX & RELATIONSHIPS, SEXTING, ABUSE, CONSENT, PORNOGRAPHY & ONLINE SAFETY to educate and equip our teens to make not just good choices but GOD choices by delivering all our sessions from a Christian perspective.

Respect ME sees on average ONLY ONE student in every THIRTY admitting to liking themself. Our dream is that pupils who have been in our sessions can come out knowing who they are in Christ, accepting God's love and then go on a journey learning to like, love, value and respect themselves and others in their relationships.

Please sponsor us as we raise funds to give free lessons to schools that have no budget and to train more Respect ME tutors and see them go through the Esteem Network accredited training in 'supporting young people in positive relationships' so that we can have Respect ME teams in every Message Hub around the world.

So from Sunday 13th January for 48 hours until Monday 14th January we will stop speaking! I know it sounds impossible yes? But it's worth going through the pain to reach more young people. The last sponsored silence was back in 2014 and we raised just over £3,000 (huge thanks to all who gave!) lets see if we can match this or smash it!
