Who we are Print E-mail

The In Care Survivor Service Scotland is a partnership service bringing together specialist organisations working in the field of abuse. The main partners are Open Secret and Kingdom Abuse Survivors Service. Additional key partners are the Moira Anderson Foundation and Break the Silence. All of the organisations involved have substantial experience of working with survivors.

Over the years we have worked with a number of survivors who have been abused in a care setting. Our staff and volunteers have developed a great deal of experience of the issues faced by survivors and the survivors we have worked with shaped the development of the new service.

We have recruited workers across Scotland with local knowledge and experience as well as substantial experience in providing counselling and advocacy support.
