02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
The charity supports survivors of sexual abuse and their family members through the process of recovery. The aim of the charity is to support as many of Fife’s survivors of sexual abuse as it can. No one survivor’s journey is the same as another, so the approach taken by the charity is bespoke and adapts to the need of the individual. The principal work of the charity is the provision of counselling (in one-to-one sessions and in a group therapeutic setting), however the contribution of the charity extends far beyond this. Its work includes contributing to national policy, raising awareness, and helping Fife’s communities to play their part in protecting and supporting this vulnerable group of young people and adults.
