Awareness & Self-Care

Thank you for your interest in the Intimacy On Set Guidelines, exploring best practice when working with intimacy in the industry. Whilst this work encourages empowerment and a positive way forward, it is also incredibly  important that we practice self-care. Sometimes reflecting on this work can be triggering for those who have experienced harassment or abuse. Your experience is valid and important. If you feel you can’t or don’t want to speak to anyone close to you about your own experiences, there are some people who are there to listen.
