Fill out one of our online referral forms

Please read this information prior to completing one of the forms below. Break The Silence provide support for residents in East and North Ayrshire affected by childhood sexual trauma. In addition we can provide support for people who were abused/neglected as children while living in care in Scotland (in partnership with Future Pathways) and also offer family member support.

If you are a South Ayrshire resident, then you may be able to access support through Moving On.

Break the Silence welcomes people of all genders without prejudice and supports equality and diversity. However we are unable to support people who have committed, been charged or convicted of a sexual offence.

We will endeavour to ensure appointments are at a convenient time. However, due to operational demands on our service and outreach premises only accessible on certain days, this may not always be possible.

Break The Silence collects information from you. We will use this information to contact you with appointment information and to contact you with information of any groups you have expressed interest in. We also collect your date of birth, gender, reason for referral and health statistics to fulfill our contractual/funding commitments. Anonymised data is collated to produce funder/contract reports.

By submitting this referral you are agreeing to your data being held as per our Privacy Policy
Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the lawful basis we rely on for processing this information is Legitimate Interest.
