• A Professional, Sensitive, Caring service.
• A Non-judgemental service.

• One to One Counselling.
• Group Therapy.

One to one Counselling
Mankind UK is a UK charity that provides advice and help for victims of male sexual violence and sex attacks. As such it provides opportunities to talk to someone who understands and will help you to sort out your problems at your own pace. All counsellors are trained to deal with issues of sexual abuse and male sexual violence. You have a choice to work with a male or female counsellor. Counselling will normally involve an hourly session once a week and will involve a fee based on a sliding scale.

Group Support
A place to receive support from others and realise that you are not alone. Group facilitators help to create a safe environment where feelings can be explored. This will be arranged on request provided there is sufficient interest.

Support for Partners & Families
Mankind UK recognise that partners and families of survivors of a sex attack often need support and help sorting out their own feelings. We therefore offer support, where appropriate, which may include one to one counselling and/or facilitated groups.

Mankind UK operates a child protection policy.
