Services

Since 2016, Support for Survivors has supported hundreds of adult survivors of child abuse get through seemingly impossible problems, especially where they feel left behind by other services.

We’re proud to support all members of the public, including LGBT+, BAMER, Gypsy, Roma & Traveller, those with physical disabilities and those with learning disabilities. We also provide support to those who were abused within the Church of England and Roman Catholic Church.

The majority of our community are fellow survivors of child abuse, so you can be assured that we’ll believe, understand and listen to what you have to say.

"I have found the charity to be very supportive and have always felt supported and valued. All the staff are very compassionate and make you feel valued and cared for. My life has changed much for the better in the time I have been attending the sessions. I cannot speak highly enough about the help I have received"

"I have really enjoyed this course and it has had an impact on my life. I am stronger and more capable of achieving my goals and targets. I will miss being on this course spending time and getting to know other survivors like myself"

"I’m in a much better place and SFS has played a big part in that. Finding the charity came at an important time for me. The personal development course was very helpful. I hope the charity continues to support everyone who needs it. Especially as there is very little support for men like this in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire"
