    BEING GAY, WORKING HERE

    PETER GILBERT
    Service Delivery Manager
    ‘Diversity is one of Victim Support’s core values. As a victim of crime, or working for Victim Support, we’re made to feel valued for just who we are. As a manager I’m completely out and feel comfortable with that, plus there is the LGBT Network and its support. It’s a great charity to commit to.’

MORE ABOUT US

We provide information, practical help, emotional support and advocacy as well as promoting the rights of people affected by crime. We offer a range of services, whether or not a crime has been reported. These are delivered locally by our employees and our volunteers, who are trained to help people cope with the effects of crime. We have offices throughout England and Wales and we run the Witness Service in every criminal court.

What is most important to us is that you share our organisational values and that you care about people. You will have good interpersonal skills and want to be part of our organisation which is all about supporting others who have been affected by crime. We have continued to work hard to make LGB staff and volunteers feel supported and this is an ongoing process. The LGBT network continues to raise its profile and ensure our policies and practices are LGB inclusive, in addition to letting LGB colleagues know they have a forum for support.
