We want to continue the conversation around sexual abuse and sexual violence beyond this campaign week – even into the next General Election.  If you could take a few minutes to answer the questions on this survey, it will help us shape our work, communications and campaigns over the next year.  It is fine to answer some, any or all the questions on what you feel is relevant.

We do not ask for any personal information.  Any answers you do give will be anonymous and we will not be able to trace your answers back to you.  Survey responses will be kept for up to 6 months after which time they will be deleted.  You can read our Privacy Policy here. This survey is for people aged 18+ living in Nottingham or Nottinghamshire only.

While these questions are very general, we are aware that the subject can be upsetting.  You are free to leave the survey at any time.  Support information can be found at the top of each page and at the end.

Support is available from 
Nottingham/Nottinghamshire 24 hr domestic and sexual violence helpline 0808 800 0340  
Notts SVS Helpline 0115 941 0440 (not 24 hours) 
National 24 hr Rape and Sexual Abuse Helpline 0808 500 2222
