The Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner, Dr. Fatima Eltinay, recently met with SAIL Derbyshire in Chesterfield to see first-hand the vital support they provide to survivors of sexual abuse and violence.

SAIL offers free, specialist counselling and therapies, alongside peer and group support for adults across Derbyshire. Their work helps individuals rebuild confidence, reduce isolation and support long-term recovery.

Through funding from the Domestic Abuse and Sexual Violence Victims Fund and Community Safety Grant, SAIL is expanding its support — increasing access to Independent Sexual Violence Advisors (ISVAs) and delivering structured group sessions to help more people on their recovery journey.

📊 This support is making a real difference, with those accessing services reporting:

• Improved understanding of trauma
• Stronger coping strategies and wellbeing
• Increased confidence and self-esteem
• Greater sense of connection and reduced isolation

🤝 Visits like this highlight the importance of partnership working to ensure survivors receive the support they need, when they need it.

With England taking on Ghana at 9pm tonight, World Cup excitement is building — and with it, more people heading out to pubs, bars and venues across Derbyshire to watch the game together. 

Big matches mean busy night-time economies, a great atmosphere, and often a few drinks — so it’s important to plan ahead.

🚗 Don’t Risk the Drive

Drink or drug driving puts lives at risk — yours and others.

You can plan ahead by:
🚕 Booking a taxi in advance
👥 Arranging a lift with a designated driver
🚌 Checking public transport options before you go out

A great night of football should end safely — not with a dangerous decision.

Let’s make sure everyone can enjoy the game and get home safely.
