How is Enough so incredibly low cost?

Enough can be delivered in a city for roughly 10% of the cost of Rape Crisis and a SARC, but can help many times more people – how is that possible?

  Enough harnesses the power of student volunteers, local businesses, universities, major employers, and other volunteer organization and runs continuous event and collaborations to spread the word  

This is filmed (always with permission) and turned into amazing content and shared virally on social media  

Because this issue is one of the largest for young women, and for young men; and because Enough is overwhelmingly trusted and welcomed by students, the content is shared millions of times at zero cost  

Meanwhile thousands of low cost symbolic deterrent kits are distributed to anyone  that wants. They are easy to use correctly, and then you post them straight to the lab, who upload the results to your account. The whole thing can be done for less than £50.  

SARCs spend about £1,600 on each full forensic examination. The SARC exam collects far more evidence, and is certainly more authoritative. However less than 5% of survivors go and get one. It looks very possible that far more will choose to collect DNA with Enough  

Private encrypted rape reports to the Enough platform are quick and easy for survivors, and create enormous deterrence and a powerful store of potential intelligence for nearly zero cost  

Once survivors have reported, they can access free online trauma informed and evidence based recovery resources. We know from feedback that this is helping many, and is probably saving lives that might be otherwise lost to suicide (there are 9,000 a year). Our resources are being used already by 20,000 survivors a week. Rape Crisis helps about 150,000 a year. About 15% of new survivors approach Rape Crisis for help. 85% do not. The cost of these resources are also tiny.  

Enough has done all this with a tiny agile team, embracing new technology and ideas, free of bureaucracy, focused only on providing services that actually work for survivors, that they overwhelmingly actually want to use
