Report it! Get supported!

If you ever experience or witness sexual violence, aggression, hate crime or harassment – the University’s support services are here for you and will always listen seriously and impartially to your concerns. We can offer you guidance on further support and options so you can progress your report including both via the Police and/or the University.

If in doubt – report it!
