AI tools like Grok have been used to generate non-consensual sexualised images of women and UK law is still struggling to keep up.
We reflect on what this reveals about accountability, online abuse, and why prevention must come first.

How do women actually get heard. How do we work together. What has been shown to work?
That’s what our first event of 2026 with the brilliant campaigner and author Kajal Odedra is all about. A lunchtime session on Thursday 20th Jan, focused on turning anger into action.

The misuse of the AI tool, Grok, to degrade and humiliate women is unacceptable. This was predictable, preventable, and enabled by platforms that chose speed and profit over women’s safety and dignity. We will keep scrutinising the development of AI and how it is misused to inflict harm on women.

Close up of breastfeeding space sign
We saw endometriosis awareness posters, a designated breastfeeding area for any mother who prefers her own space, and brilliant players who were once told football was not for them.
Lewes FC players on the pitch during a pre season match
On Sunday, Lewes won their pre season match 7–0. Off the pitch, the same energy and commitment is driving change across every part of the club.
Fawcett CEO and Lewes FC players
We went to Lewes FC to see what football looks like when it is done equally. Penny East, our CEO, joined the only UK club to pay male and female players the same.
