Informative Purple Point set up during the patron saint festivals of Torres de la Alameda, offering support and awareness.

The City Council of Torres de la Alameda is reinforcing awareness about consent and the prevention of sexual violence during the Patron Saint Festivals, with informative talks and a Purple Point.

The «Do You Understand NO?» campaign has reached the IES Senda Galiana with informative talks aimed at young people to raise awareness about the importance of consent in sexual-affective relationships. The goal is to promote respect for each person's decisions and boundaries.
It is emphasized that consent must be free, clear, and mutual, without pressure or coercion. Silence or the absence of resistance does not imply acceptance, and consent can be withdrawn at any time. Communication and active listening are fundamental, and in case of refusal, one must stop without insisting.
As part of the initiative, a Purple Point will be set up in the Recinto de Peñas (Peñas Venue) on Friday and Saturday. This space will offer information and advice on sexist violence and sexual assaults.
The City Council reminds everyone that prevention and respect are a shared responsibility, and emphasizes that good festivals are those where everyone can enjoy themselves with freedom and safety.
