About SARSAS

SARSAS exists to relieve the trauma and distress, and help rebuild the lives, of survivors who live in Somerset, Bristol, South Gloucestershire, North Somerset and BANES, who have experienced any form of sexual violence, at any point in their lives.

SARSAS also campaigns and raises awareness about rape and sexual violence to change the narrative about sexual violence and enable survivor's voices to be heard.

Partnership work with a range of agencies locally and nationally is a priority to enable social change.

SARSAS works to feminist principles:
this underpins both what our service is and how it is run.

Our work is guided by a trauma-informed approach which understands how traumatic experiences can impact on survivors and keeps an awareness of the effects of trauma at the forefront of our approach to support.

This video developed as part of the 2021 GSK Impact Awardswill give you a taster of the work we do.
