Sexual abuse victims claim court transcript scheme was hidden' from them for months
Briefly

Many victims of sexual abuse claim they were unaware of a government pilot scheme providing access to free court transcripts, delaying their healing process.
The pilot scheme aimed to assist sexual violence and rape victims, enabling them to receive expensive court transcripts that usually obstruct their path to closure.
Campaigners highlight that the lack of awareness about this crucial scheme meant that many eligible victims lost vital opportunities for closure, suffering longer due to this oversight.
One victim expressed that if she had known about the scheme earlier, the court notes could have provided critical emotional support during her darkest moments.
