Compassionate support

About Us

At RSVP, we believe that everyone deserves a life free from sexual violence and abuse. We support people who have been subjected to sexual violence and abuse to thrive and enjoy a future of hope and confidence. We boldly stand with survivors and challenge victim-blaming attitudes.

Our confidential services are delivered with compassion, professionalism and humanity. We’re here to recognise your individuality, build on your strengths and develop safe supportive relationships with you, to enable you to overcome the impact and effects of sexual trauma.

You might feel nervous contacting us for support. Everyone at RSVP appreciates this and will treat you with respect, empathy and sensitivity.

If you have been subjected to sexual violence and abuse, you can access our free services. We support children and adults, and people of all genders in Birmingham & Solihull. We also have some services for people supporting survivors. Please note, we are unable to support adults who have sexually harmed others. Please get in touch with us to find out more about our services and to see how we can support you on 0121 643 0301 or info@rsvporg.co.uk

West Midlands Police and Crime Plan Victims Consultation

Simon Foster, the West Midlands Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC), has now launched his consultation for the development of his next Police and Crime Plan. The consultation phase will take place over the next three months and will see members of the OPCC attending many events and meetings to ensure everyone has the opportunity to get involved. West Midlands PCC have created a Victims Survey to understand the needs of those directly affected by crime in the West Midlands. It is their aim that at least 10% of persons accessing commissioned services share their views on themes such as accessibility of victim services and police response to victims. They would like to be in a position to understand victims thoughts, views and ideas. ⁠

A Statement Surrounding The Recent Riots, Violence and Unrest Across The UK:

After there has been continued devastating hatred, racism, Islamophobia and violence, we want to make it clear that these have no place in RSVP. We feel deeply saddened & angered by the deliberate racist targeting of specific individuals and groups that has happened in Southport & other places across the UK. This is having a hugely distressing and traumatic impact on individuals, communities and society, including the survivors of sexual violence & abuse whom we support and our team too. We do not tolerate racism and hatred, and we will continue to understand and respond to the fears and concerns of the people we support and our team too.

For survivors, if you are anxious and concerned about travelling to RSVP for support, we can change your support to phone or online support or reschedule.

For our team, if you are anxious and concerned about travelling into your workplace, we will support you to work from home or take time away from work.

We will also offer any additional support that we can.

RSVP will continue to stand against hatred and to show the compassion & big-hearted support that RSVP is built upon.
