We are taking a short break from all social media

We are taking a short break from all social media platforms! 💜

As a small team, we understand the value of rest. We encourage one another to be kind to ourselves and prioritise self-care and self-compassion. 💜

Our usual service delivery will continue during this period so please do not hesitate to get in touch if you are in the Sussex area and wish to access support. 💜

We will not be monitoring our DMs so please visit our website, email or call for enquiries. 💜

If you need support please email info@survivorsnetwork.org.uk or if you are in immediate danger please call 999.

"A sexual violence survivor says if university sta

"A sexual violence survivor says if university staff had been specially trained, she might not have been raped."

Reflecting on headlines like these only motivate our work. We support many student-survivors, and witness directly some varied responses from university staff.

We have developed a specific and comprehensive “Consent for Universities” Webinar for students, but this must be supported by having skilled staff who hold adequate and enhanced knowledge to fulfil their duty of care for students. This way, they can best support student-survivors, as well as take measures to address and tackle the widespread epidemic of sexual violence in universities.

Our Higher Education lead has designed specialist Sexual Safety training to upskill across different university staff teams. If you have concerns about the responses of your institution, you could ask what training has been provided to staff, and even apply pressure to ensure the implementation of consistent, quality training at your university. 📢‼️

“Helen was a wonderful trainer. She made us feel comfortable discussing such a difficult topic.” – a recent attendee of our “Supporting Survivors in Higher Education” training. 💜
