Changemakers

Changemakers is the name we have adopted for anyone who wants to be part of our community of Survivor Activists, changing society’s response to abuse and trauma.

Being a Changemaker is for you if you:

are ready to use your experience to support research, education and activism work.

This can be as simple as responding to email requests from us for comments on our reports and presentations or it could be taking part in research as a participant or peer researcher.

are looking for opportunities to deliver trauma informed training & education to organisations, institutions and other professionals.

are already a Survivor Activist, looking for a community of peers for support and collaboration?

You don’t have to do this alone.

you want to engage with protests and campaigns either by quietly writing letters to MPs and people in positions of power or in a more public and visible way.

Who Can Join?

We have opened the Changemakers Community to any Survivor Activists who wish to join us. Keep reading to find out how to join.

We are also happy to hear from organisations looking for survivor involvement who want to work with our fantastic Changemaker team.
