Thames Valley SARC - Solace Centre

Solace is a dedicated Sexual Assault Referral Centre for Thames Valley providing services to Males, Female & children who have been raped or sexually assaulted

[We Are Survivors. @ThisIsSurvivors]

Safe room is an online talking space for men who have experienced childhood sexual abuse and rape. We don't just talk about our experiences as survivors. Sometimes it just helps to chat to others who understand. Get in touch with Support to get involved. Today is GROUP D

[Leicester Quetzal @LeicQuetzal]

At least 1 in 6 men have experienced sexual assault or sexual violence. It is just as important to end the stigma of sexual abuse against male survivors and encourage them to seek help to address their trauma

[Dorset Mind @DorsetMind]

Today heralds the start of #MensHealthWeek - as the focus this year is on #mentalhealth why not check out @LightonMh? Dorset’s new campaign for building #wellbeing together. Specifically aimed at men, challenging stigma & making talking about #mh normal.

Our National #Male #Survivor #Helpline and #Online service is open today 9am-5pm for emotional #support advice and information for men and boys and those who support them affected by #sexualabuse #rape #CSA in England and Wales #BelieveInYou #MenToo #YouMatter #BreakTheSilence

[Leicester Quetzal @LeicQuetzal]

'Why didn't I fight back....?' #CSA can make survivors blame themselves. Understanding how our brains have evolved to respond to danger can help survivors acknowledge the abuse was not their fault. With #CSA our 'fight or flight' response doesn't operate the same way...
