The University Welfare team provides a space for you to be heard, with advisors offering support if you have been impacted by sexual harassment or violence. All specialist caseworkers at the service are trained to support you at your pace, non-judgementally and in confidence. 

We encourage you to report all incidents of sexual violence, harassment and hate crime.  Report & Support makes it easier to notify us about incidents that require action. We encourage anyone who has experienced behaviour that made them feel uncomfortable or threatened to report it and receive the relevant support.

Report + Support

We recognise that everyone's situations are different and the support and advice we offer will be tailored to your individual circumstances and need. There is no pressure to take any action or to report and you are free to change your mind at any point.
