Women only services
Our women only times for one to one support at our centre are:
|
Mondays 5pm – 7 pm, Tuesdays 9am – 1pm, Fridays 9am – 12pm/noon
|
The centre is located at 17 Claremont Crescent, Edinburgh EH7 4HX.
We understand that these times may not be suitable for everyone. In such a scenario, we will actively work with you to identify a suitable time and venue for your support. We take a proactive approach to make support accessible and deliver support in various outreach spaces.
At ERCC, we are a diverse group of women and non-binary workers and volunteers. ERCC has been trans inclusive since 2008.
Our Commitment and what to expect:
In a survivors initial meeting, the worker will give a clear overview of the services that we offer, including our trans inclusivity. This meeting will be held by a woman who has always lived as a woman and will include exploration of the type of support a survivor wishes and would benefit from. This conversation will also explore any concerns or preferences a survivor has around the support, and who they receive it from. The survivor is then supported by someone who meets their needs. It is important to us to provide safe access to all survivors of sexual violence, and we will continue to do so.
At any stage if you are unsure about anything or have any questions, please get in touch with us.

The spaces we offer include groups for women inclusive of trans women, mixed groups which include women and non-binary people and mixed groups for men inclusive of trans men, women, and non-binary people. We also offer groups only for women who have always lived as women. We give the opportunity to speak more about the type of group support space, which best meets your needs we can offer an initial
