“Working for SARSAS has been the highlight of my career to date. Every day I have the privilege of working with such an amazing team of passionate, knowledgeable, and generally awesome people.
I am particularly looking forward to developing our survivor voice and community work. And if we are going to change the future landscape and prevalence of sexual violence, it is imperative that we continue and expand our focus on prevention, education, and campaigning.
My message to anyone who has experienced any form of sexual violence and might be thinking of contacting SARSAS is – you are not alone. Whoever you are, whatever your experience, we will hear you, we will believe you and we will walk alongside you in your journey, whatever that looks like for you.”

Over the past nine years of working closely with SARSAS, I have witnessed the skill, commitment and expertise of their brilliant team, and the passion and dedication that goes into their support of survivors. From their pioneering work to spotlight the often invisible older survivors of abuse, to their commitment to provide support to those with complex and intersecting needs, they work tirelessly not just to provide an outstanding level of support to their existing service users, but to lead the sector in expanding best practice and innovative approaches to sexual violence. I am deeply proud to be their patron.
