The Report and Support Team is part of Student Wellbeing Services, and specifically sits within Outreach, Participation and Advice under Student & Academic Services.
Student Support Advisors from the Report and Support Team are not counsellors or therapists like our colleagues in Student Wellbeing Services, and are not qualified to provide professional emotional support. However, they are experts on all forms of harassment and have received extensive training on trauma-informed approaches and how to best support survivors. They are Sexual Violence Liaison Officers and also mental health first aiders, meaning that they will be able to support you until professional help is put in place, whether that is via Student Wellbeing Services or via external organisations. There might be times where it would be beneficial for our teams to share some information regarding your case (e.g. to avoid repetition of disclosure). In that instance, we would always seek your consent first.
