IMARA

Empowering children and families to recover from the impacts of sexual abuse.

Imara is an independent specialist service that supports children, young people and their safe family members following a disclosure or discovery of child sexual abuse. We are a charity and all of our services are free to access.

We are the chosen provider of therapy for all children and young people aged 0-18 affected by sexual abuse across the county of Nottinghamshire, as well as children under 12 in Nottingham City. We specialise in trauma and familial abuse, and we also support our clients from a legal and advocacy perspective with our CHISVA service (Children and Young People’s Independent Sexual Violence Advisor) which is commissioned by Nottinghamshire Police and Crime Commissioner.

Imara aims to empower and promote the recovery of children, young people and their families affected by child sexual abuse, by offering early intervention in the form of:

- Access to pre- and post- trial therapy, available in a range of creative arts approaches suited to children and young people.

- Specialist support for acute trauma symptoms including anxiety and problems sleeping.

- Accurate and impartial information and consistent contact throughout the judicial process, empowering clients to make their own informed choices.

- Support with education, health, housing and financial concern to restabilise the family following the abuse.

- Specialist risk and needs assessment, and referral to other appropriate support and services.

Our values:
Compassionate Commitment
Seeking Justice
Acceptance
Holding Our Ground
Creative Empowerment
