Thank you for accessing the SARSVL ISVA Service Referral Form.
Before you begin completing this online form please note we are happy to answer any
questions you may have. You can call our office on 0113 243 9102. However, we do not provide
a crisis service. If you are in immediate danger, please dial 999.
Self-referring means you can contact us directly to access support.
SARSVL can provide a safe space for you to talk about how rape or sexual violence has
affected you and we can help you to explore your options. We offer a specialist counselling
service; an ISVA service which offers support if you have reported to the police, or are
considering doing so; and our anonymous Helpline offers emotional support by phone, text or
email. This form is for the ISVA service only.
Independent Sexual Violence Advocate
About:
Our ISVAs are trained in providing specialist trauma informed emotional and practical
support to women and girls (aged 13 +) who have reported sexual violence to the police,
or are considering doing so. ISVA support is offered throughout the police
investigation, and beyond, if the case gets to court.
At SARSVL we have ISVA’s who support women aged 18 and over, and a specialist Young
Person’s ISVA who supports young people aged between 13 and 17.
We offer appointments to suit your needs - they can be face to face in our Leeds Office,
online, or over the phone. For young people aged between 13 and 17 we can offer outreach
appointments such as in your school or college.
Criteria:
Women and girls (aged 13 +) resident in the Leeds area.
