Reclaim the Night will take place in Belfast on November 26
A Belfast woman who was sexually abused as a child and successfully prosecuted her abuser is one of the key speakers at this year’s Reclaim the Night march.
"The fact is going through the courts is a brutal process. I do not regret reporting my abuser but it is a very difficult path to take. Co-organiser Danielle Roberts said the event was as important as ever as the lack of a Stormont Executive was having a profoundly negative effect on the safety of women in Northern Ireland.
“We need to make sure legal protection is not just on paper. We also need support services that are resourced and accessible," she added.
