To award funding for the provision of Child Independent Sexual Violence Advisors (CISVA) to provide a service to all children and young people in Surrey. Sexual violence of any kind is a traumatic experience and for children and young people can have dramatic repercussions for the rest of their lives. In addition to group and individual therapy to help their recovery, children, young people and their families need practical support in the aftermath of any incident and through any court proceedings.
