Working with trauma survivors

We are committed to working in partnership with sexual and domestic abuse healthcare professionals who come into contact with survivors of rape, exploitation, sexual and domestic abuse. We connect with agencies and community groups with the aim of improving the well-being and quality of life of survivors in Cumbria. We provide guidance for those working with domestic and sexual abuse survivors through our resources and training courses. 

We encourage you to make a referral on behalf of your service user to help them avoid additional stress and the potential trauma of navigating the referral process themselves.  Retelling details of their story to different individuals and organisations can be incredibly distressing and even re-traumatising. 

If you would like to refer your service user to Safety Net, please view the services below for more information.

“It was really good to talk to someone about my worries. It allowed me to learn how certain reactions are due to the event, and it’s a normal reaction.”
