We’ve relaunched our online consent website for teens!

Navigating the world of sex and consent can feel overwhelming, especially for young people. That’s why we’re excited to relaunch PAUSE PLAY STOP – a free, easy-to-use online tool designed to help students aged 13+ feel more confident and in control when it comes to sex and consent.

Spark conversations in the classroom


Practical tools for understanding consent: from real-life situations to online interactions, the site teaches young people how to get clear and enthusiastic consent.
Recognising “No” in all its forms: consent isn’t just about saying “yes” or “no.” PAUSE PLAY STOP helps young people recognise the many ways people might express their boundaries, whether verbally or non-verbally.
Understanding consent and the law: knowing your rights and the legal aspects of consent is crucial. The site breaks it down in a way that’s easy to understand.
Why someone might not be able to consent: the site covers scenarios where consent can’t be given, such as when someone is under the influence of drugs/alcohol or feeling pressured.
Respect, boundaries, and communication: healthy relationships are built on these principles. PAUSE PLAY STOP emphasises the importance of mutual respect and open communication.
Being an active bystander: Learn how to safely challenge sexual violence and support others in difficult situations.
Identifying coercive control: recognising the signs of coercion is key to maintaining healthy relationships.
