Animated video: About the Survivor Experiences Service

Working with the Disabled Community

The Survivor Experiences Service and the Crown Response Unit are currently working with the Deaf and disabled community to make sure that the Service is accessible, safe and meaningful.

The Service needs to be accessible for people who have barriers to communication, a learning disability, cognitive impairment, and people who are neurodiverse.

We are gathering the views of the Deaf and disabled community to understand how the Service can meet your needs.
