We use lived experience, professional expertise and research to improve the development of relevant policy, practice and service commissioning.

We stimulate debate so our society becomes more informed and confident in speaking out and challenging sexual abuse and abusive relationships to break the cycle.

Our people our vital to the success of the organisation, they are a dedicated and professional group of individuals who uphold our values through the delivery of specialist, quality driven and sustainable services.
