The findings of this Survey provide valuable insights into victims’ experiences and where further improvement is needed. Some findings align with recent CJI inspections, emphasising the need to ensure victims and witnesses have better outcomes and support.
Today, we've published the findings of our 2025 Victim Survey. This was carried out between September and December 2025 and we received more responses than ever before, a huge thank you to everyone who came forward and used their voices. Link to read report below

Last week we were in Stormont for something really positive. @VictimSupportNI celebrated 45 years of making a real difference, a real highlight was the fact that Judy, one of the original volunteers from the beginning, was able to be there.
