We believe you

We support survivors of sexual violence and abuse in Sussex. We understand that a healing journey starts with a small step and are here to help you.

We are still taking precautions around covid, and will not be returning to entirely in-person support just yet. Our helpline & email support is on Mondays 7-9pm & Wednesdays 12-2pm. One-to-one support will be delivered remotely.
