Women’s weekly magazine: I am looking for female case studies for a very sensitive piece on older rape victims for a women’s weekly magazine. As a link to the story of Shirley Woodman – the 82-year-old who was successfully rewarded compensation from rapist Iorworth Hoare, we are keen to speak to ladies who have gone through a similar ordeal. If possible, we’d like to speak to women (and perhaps their daughters) who became a rape victim at the age of 50 or older. Their attacker would need to have been successfully jailed and they must be willing to be identified and openly interviewed about their experience. This will be treated very sensitively and we can provide a full read-back before publication. Contact: Lucy Mcguire Email: Lucy.McGuire@hearst.co.uk or Phone: 0207 312 3800
