A FOUNDATION IN FORMATION
I.ROSE
I.RISE
A foundation taking shape around a family's experience — and a quiet hope that survivors everywhere are met with care, dignity and a voice that is heard. A space for letters, shared stories, and honest conversation across borders.

00- THE STORY
A daughter.
A reckoning.
Isabel is currently in Hong Kong, where her case is still moving through the legal process.
Isabel reported the assault as she didn't want this to happen to another woman and felt she had a duty to report this as well as for her self. Before she went to prison she had plans for a foundation to help others that may end up in a similar situation or may have experienced something they want to share.
This space was created because writing helps. Because connection helps. In time, we hope to walk alongside other families and survivors navigating something similar — quietly, honestly, and with care.

00 — MISSION
We rise so others feel held.
I.
How We Hold
Raise awareness gently and factually about how survivors of sexual violence are supported around the world — especially when they are far from home, without language, legal knowledge, or family nea
II.
Bulding The Community
Creating a soft place to land: a community where survivors and families can share on their own terms, and where every voice is met with care, not judgement.
III.
Guide the Travellers
Guide the Travellers
Share knowledge, contacts, and quiet preparation with young women and travellers — the kind of guidance we wish every family had before a 4-day trip became 2.5 years.
00 — LETTERS
In her own words.
Isabel shares letters when she feels able to. They are published here as she wishes — softly, honestly, and only ever with her blessing.

“For the gang - Miss you guys”
Letter from Inside:
“The Reality” by Isabel Rose
Written 25/03/26
Hey guys, I was thinking about you all so much last night, I got my pocket radio, so was listening to some music man. You guys should tune in one day, we can request. You can request, I feel like we should have a day to do it.

Hey friends! ♡
So I’m better at writing in my book, because when there nothing to reply too, it is more diary style, but as its the weekend, I can diary in a 4 page letter that can be shared with my people.
ISABEL'S LETTER — LETTER Nº 03
Letter from Inside: “The Reality”
Letter from Inside #3:
by Isabel Rose
Written 03 April 2026
The Reality
The loud sound of banging gates and keys jingling
The scent of cigarette smoke in the indoor cell lingering
From no air, to mesh covered windows
It could be one day, 2 or three, but nobody knows
04 — YOUR VOICE
Share your story,
softly.
If you have lived something similar — in any country, at any age — there is a quiet place for you here. Share anonymously, under a name, or as a letter to someone who needs to feel less alone.

For the daughters who haven't left home yet.
The next chapter of this foundation: a gentle, practical programme for young travellers. Country-by-country notes on local guidance, embassy contacts, trusted resources, and the kind of soft pre-departure preparation every family hopes their daughter has. We will start to build on this from true accounts and information from individuals and communities.
