At FRASAC we welcome people of all genders.

You can be a survivor of sexual violence regardless of your gender or the gender of the perpetrator. You are not to blame and deserve support. We understand that lesbian, bisexual, queer, transgender and intersex survivors may face additional real or perceived barriers when accessing services and may have particular worries, fears or concerns. We are here to support you with this. If there is anything we can do to help you feel safe and supported in the Centre, please let us know and we will try to make that happen. We will listen to you, believe you and support you. Our support service is confidential.

Many LBTI+ survivors may be reluctant to report sexual violence because of a fear of being discriminated against. The police have a duty under the Equality Act to not discriminate against people on the grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity, and if you feel that you have been discriminated against then you have the right to make a complaint. A worker at FRASAC can support you through the process of reporting if you feel this would be helpful to you.
