Thank you so much to those who have come forward to share their stories with us. We are still hoping to speak to a few more survivors &/or their family members if we can. In particular we are keen to speak to anyone based in Wales, male survivors, and parents/carers.

[JiCSAV @JiCSAV_]

We are inviting survivors and/or their family members to tell us about their experiences of accessing the criminal justice process during the Covid-19 pandemic. Interviews will be with an experienced researcher and can take place over the phone or via video call.
