Intercom are so proud to announce the official launch of The Bridge Project South West!
Our new partnership brings together the expertise of seven highly skilled local organisations to deliver the Independent Sexual Violence Advisor (ISVA) service across Devon, Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.
We look forward to sharing more information about our work as we stand alongside survivors and create change.
Independent Sexual Violence Advisors (ISVAs) offer free, impartial, confidential support to people who have been sexually assaulted, raped or abused. They help people make informed choices about reporting to the police and understand what their rights and options are.
Our ISVAs are here for people of all genders, sexual orientations, ages, ethnicities and backgrounds, ensuring that every individual gets the tailored support they need.
The service is funded by the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Devon, Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly and NHS England.
Jackie May, Chief Executive of the Women’s Centre Cornwall, says:
“We are proud to have been selected to lead and deliver the ISVA service. Every survivor of sexual violence deserves compassionate, independent specialist support to help them make informed choices and cope with what has happened to them. We’re delighted to be welcoming the team of committed and experienced ISVAs into our partnership and looking forward to supporting them to deliver an excellent service for survivors.”
If you or someone you know might need the support of an ISVA, there are lots of ways to get in touch. Call the NHS Sexual Assault Referral Helpline on 0300 303 4626. Visit www.sarchelp.co.uk where you can also access medical help if you need it.
