Battle cry
Article Abstract:
An Asian nurse who was raped by a family friend is aiming to set up a support group for other Asian women in similar circumstances. She relates her own experience of being raped and of the particular difficulties which were caused by her ethnicity. She also expresses her disapproval of the three nurses who were previously convicted of sex offences and who have regained admittance to the nursing profession. In the near future the High Court is going to make a ruling on a challenge against this decision.
