The Catholic Safeguarding Standards Agency (CSSA) is conducting a thematic inspection on survivor engagement and support across Religious Life Groups and Dioceses. The purpose of the public survey is to invite survivors to contribute their experiences of contact with a Religious Life Group or Diocese following abuse. The experiences may be new or ongoing, as well as those connected to non-recent abuse. The information will be used to gain a better understanding of survivor’s experience with church bodies, share best practice and to develop ways to improve this experience for both survivors and church leaders.

The survey form is anonymous unless you provide your name or contact details. Submissions can only be removed if they can be identified. If you wish to withdraw your contribution, please contact: qualityassurance@catholicsafeguarding.org.uk with your identifying details by 6 October 2025.Â
