Survive helps adult survivors living in York, North Yorkshire and the East Riding of Yorkshire, to cope and recover from sexual trauma.

We offer specialist, trauma-informed services for survivors of sexual violence and abuse, including counselling, trauma therapy, EMDR, support work, and a helpline.

In the last year, we’ve seen a 40% increase of people reaching out to use our services.

These are people living with sexual trauma from:

recent or historical incidents – including child sexual abuse;

multiple or single incidents;

abuse perpetrated by friends, family, partners, ex-partners or strangers

These survivors need access to our specialist, trauma-informed services, so that they can find relief from distress and discover self-worth.

WE NEED YOUR HELP TO DELIVER THESE LIFE CHANGING SERVICES.

Last year, we helped more survivors than ever before, but more demand means survivors are waiting longer to be seen.

We need more staff, more training, more volunteers, and more resources to help these survivors rebuild their lives, relationships and reach their potential.

We need your help to continue to offer these specialist trauma-informed services, as quickly as possible and FREE OF CHARGE.

Thank you.
