Advocacy
If you are accessing our sexual abuse support services and find it difficult to understand your care and support or find it hard to speak up, our advocacy service can act as a spokesperson for you. They make sure you’re heard.
If you are aged 16 years or older, we can help you to access other services and organisations, for support with financial, housing, mental health and other practical matters.

Survivors Voices
The support was so helpful and a real life line to me I felt safe to open up and talk about anything. My counsellor was so lovely and made me feel so comfortable I am starting to get my old self back and learning ways to cope with my ptsd. This service is so invaluable thank you
