The survivors campaigning against the horrific rise in sexual abuse of unconscious women

Please be aware that this report contains details you may find distressing.

Zoe Watts and Amanda Stanhope were both abused by their former partners while unconscious. ITV News has brought them together for the first time as they launch a campaign they say is long overdue.

#EndEyeCheck is a survivor-led campaign targeting the legal loopholes they say allow men to drug, rape and film their partners – and to share that material online, in networks where such abuse is not just hidden, but glorified, promoted and traded.
