Survive offers offer specialist trauma-informed services to adults in York, North Yorkshire, and East Riding of Yorkshire who have been subjected to sexual violence and abuse including rape, sexual assault and child sexual abuse.

We need your help to make sure as many survivors as possible can access our services free-of-charge and rebuild their lives after sexual trauma.

Each year, we transform the lives of hundreds of survivors accessing our services. Because more people are talking about sexual violence and abuse, more survivors are asking for our help meaning our waiting lists have increased and people are waiting longer to access our services.

In the last six years, we’ve seen a 350% increase in new referrals.

Since last year, we’ve seen a 40% increase in new referrals.

Help us help more survivors rebuild their lives, relationships and reach their potential.
