We are proud to announce that, after a year in the making, our book, Her-story Rewritten, will hit the shelves on 26th November 2019! It’s an anthology of true stories written by women and girls who have survived partner abuse, compiled by us here at Saje Scotland. The book will be available in paperback and Kindle formats, to buy online and at events. As soon as it’s back from the publishers, we’ll post the link up here. Every penny made from the sale of the book will come directly back to Saje to help fund the work we do.

No one tells women or girls what behaviours to look out for, how hard it is to leave an abusive relationship, the devastating, long term damage to women and their children. Our time to act is now. By bringing the fear, shame and violence into the light. By teaching our sons the strength in true equality. By teaching our daughters the strength in sisterhood. By sharing stories of hope and freedom. ...
