Equation

At Equation, we see every day how vital it is for LGBTQ+ survivors to feel safe, seen, and supported when reaching out for help.

That’s why Pride matters — not just in June, but all year round!

For professional services, Pride isn’t symbolic — it’s essential. It’s about delivering inclusive, trauma‑informed, and accessible support for everyone.

Pride strengthens our practice, and it strengthens pathways to safety and wellbeing for LGBTQ+ survivors. 🌈

We’ve refreshed our brand ✨

We wanted to freshen up our brand so it reflects who we are today and helps people to recognise us more easily. So, you may spot our new look appearing here and there as we roll it out.

We're still the same Equation - just with a fresh new look. We hope you like it 💚

Seen the awful news of a global “rape academy”? Here are some actions you can take to support survivors.

[content warning: sexual violence]

In the last couple of weeks, CNN released disturbing news of drug-facilitated sexual assaults that are being actively promoted in online spaces. Journalists exposed global online group chats that men use to help each other drug and sexually assault their partners in their own homes. One site had millions of monthly visits.

Here’s how you can take action to support survivors of sexual abuse.

1. Raise awareness and bust myths. Most sexual violence is not committed by strangers, but by someone that the victim knows.
2. Help survivors get support. Follow Nottinghamshire Sexual Violence Support Services so you can share information about helplines and find out about the signs of "spiking" on our website (link in comments).
3. Speak out. Join national campaigns to tackle misogyny in online spaces. Men can join the White Ribbon Campaign to speak out against men’s violence against women in all its forms.
