The Independent Sexual Violence Advocate offers one-to-one support for women and girls who are considering reporting rape or sexual abuse to the police, or are going through the criminal justice system.

This involves support and information around reporting to the police, liaising with professionals during the investigation, and any court cases or post trial support. There is no pressure to report to the police, this is an independent service offering information and support.
