If you would rather speak to someone face to face to make a disclosure, rather than reporting online, you can. 

Our First Responders have all undertaken specialised training enabling them to meet with anyone wishing to make an initial disclosure of Gender Based Violence.

We currently have around 40 First Responders trained and located across our academic Schools and a number of additional support departments. 

Students and staff can find details of who our First Responders are and how to get in contact with them below. 

First Responder disclosures are recorded within Report and Support for data recording purposes, but this can be done anonymously if preferred.

You can access this quick video from one of our First Responders Dr Natascha Mueller-Hirth who is one of our lecturers in Sociology talking about why she chose to become a First Responder and what the training entailed.
