Northumbria University's Department of Social Work, Education and Community Wellbeing (SWECW) places itself strategically to play a significant role in aiding societal recovery and repair beyond the pandemic period (Future of SWECW, 2021).

Together with the Department of Nursing, Midwifery and Health (NMH), SWECW have a wealth of expertise in working with our partners in the north-east and beyond, supporting professional development and being responsive to workplace needs.

In this series we showcase some of our expertise in teaching and in research, to our partners and interested parties. We can offer bespoke CPD provision (either accredited or non-accredited). Working collaboratively, we can blend our CPD offer with our research and knowledge exchange strategies.

Session 6: Understanding Sexual Violence
Delivered by: Katy Skarparis and Claire Dosdale

Sexual violence associated post-traumatic stress is a significant public health concern due to the substantial ongoing health implications for the survivor. Enhancing what happens before, during and after disclosure of sexual violence within a healthcare and social care setting may provide greater support for survivors and have a positive impact on recovery. To provide this support health and social care practitioners need to be aware of how their reactions to disclosure. This taster will touch on what informs our response and how best to support survivors.
