The Sexual Harassment and Violence Support Service provides a safe place to be heard, independent of your college or department. They offer free support and advice to any students who have been affected by sexual harassment or violence. The service works alongside an Independent Sexual Violence Advisor (ISVA) who is employed by Oxfordshire Sexual Abuse and Rape Crisis Centre (OSARCC) and is seconded to the University to exclusively support students. They are an expert in the criminal process and can support you. The ISVA is completely independent from the University and Colleges.
