When you use the internet, it is impossible to delete or clear all computer “footprints”.
If you think you may be monitored on your home computer, it might be safer to use a computer in a public library, an Internet Café or at the home of a trusted friend.
services
We are involved in a range of activities, but the most important work is the direct provision of services to the survivors of rape, sexual assault and child sexual abuse.
The services are confidential, free of charge, and provided by highly experienced professional staff.
