Chelmsley to host clinic for survivors of sexual violence

A NEW clinic to provide support and advice to survivors of sexual abuse will be held monthly in Chelmsley Wood.
Sexual health charity Umbrella has joined forces with the Rape and Sexual Violence Project (RSVP) to run the regular sessions, open to anyone over the age of 13 who has experienced rape, sexual abuse or sexual exploitation.
The abuse survivors clinic will be held at the Primary Care Centre, in Crabtree Drive, and will take place on the last Thursday of every month (between 10am and 1pm).
Rachel Caswell, a clinical lead for sexual violence and domestic abuse, said: "Sexual abuse and violence affects so many people, from every walk of life and it can make a huge difference to have someone to trust, talk to and confide in.
"In my role within Umbrella I continue to marvel at the bravery and courage of survivors."
