But they are not alone.

The Survivor's Guide is for every one who is affected by abuse issues – whether a survivor themselves, a friend, relative, health professional or counsellor.

This book features a collection of unique illustrations to portray the stories of survivors of rape or sexual abuse in easy-to-read chapters.

Funded purely by goodwill and donations, The Survivor’s Guide is the result of an ambitious campaign by a team of volunteers at UK support group RoSA (Rape or Sexual Abuse Project) who were frustrated by the lack of self-help literature for abuse victims worldwide.
It was written and produced with the backing of professional women’s organisation Soroptimist International of Rugby, UK, who fundraised tirelessly for a year to get the project off the ground.
