About.
Thriving Survivors is a charity that supports all survivors of trauma. Our service is built on the personal experience of our Founder and Chief Executive, Ashley Scotland.
Our MissionThriving Survivors aims to create a centre of excellence for trauma affected individuals regardless of race, culture or circumstance, with all services delivered by people with lived experience.
Our ServicesOur newly launched post traumatic growth programme offers survivors an opportunity to feel safe and supported whilst they begin to explore their traumatic experiences in more depth and eventually move onto the process of finding meaning in the trauma. We do this by provide a three-stage model of trauma recovery.
We provide emotional or practical support through the delivery of a range of services including our peer mentoring programme, 1-2-1 counselling sessions and our unique post traumatic growth programme. |
Our TeamWe are run by people who, just like those we aim to help, have all been through something similar.
We want people to feel a sense of safety and unity at all times and with each volunteer having previously experienced a level of misfortune themselves, we are best placed to understand their needs along the road to recovery. |
“Mentoring has helped me see some things in a different light and I always look forward to my sessions. It's great to know there is someone there for advice when needed. I always feel better after my sessions and knowing that our discussions and their advice comes from the heart and real experience means so much more than just training and textbooks. It's an inspiration knowing I'm not on my own and to realise how far you have come gives me so much hope for my future.
The support means the world to me especially as lockdown could have been so much more difficult without you."
