Our purpose
The Consent Collective is a truly unique organisation. We combine subject matter expertise with years of experience working across different sectors to help organisations prevent and respond to sexual harassment. We're here to share our expertise and to build yours, so that together we can create meaningful change.
Our founders
Dr Nina Burrowes
Our work is led by our founder Dr Nina Burrowes. Nina is a trusted voice in this space bringing a grounded sense of calm that comes from years of navigating this complex terrain with a huge variety of organisations. A recognised national expert in the psychology of sexual harm, Nina has worked with both perpetrators of sexual harm and victims/survivors of abuse. She is the author of the 'The courage to be me', 'Eyes open to sexual abuse. What every parent needs to know', 'Responding to the challenge of rape myths in court. A guide for prosecutors' and the presenter of the BBC's 'Rape Trials: Is the jury out?'.
Having started her career working with people who cause sexual harm for HM Prison Service Nina now uses her understanding of the causes and consequences of sexual violence to educate judges, barristers, police officers, teachers, university staff and human resource professionals across the UK and overseas. Nina has an infectious enthusiasm for what is possible when we are able to create workplaces and communities where sexual harassment is something we all feel able to address together.
