On 17th September 2025 we were pleased to welcome Ciara Bergman (CEO, Rape Crisis England & Wales) and Laura Parker (COO, Rape Crisis England & Wales) to Respond for an in-person meeting.

They met with our Advocacy and Therapy teams, where we shared reflections on both the challenges and the strengths of our work with survivors with learning disabilities and autistic people.

It was an inspiring afternoon of exchanging ideas and reaffirming our shared commitment to keeping survivors at the centre of all we do.
