Sexual abuse survivors at risk as funding cuts loom – support group
A sexual abuse support foundation says survivors are at risk as it braces for funding cuts in the new year.
The sexual harm helpline can be accessed free, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by phone, text, website, online chat and email.
Most people have heard about "honour abuse" of women but men can be hidden victims too.

Newsnight’s Katie Razzall has been speaking to men trapped in this predicament. If you need support with forced marriage or honour violence, help and support is available bbc.co.uk/actionline
