For anyone who has experienced sexual assault or rape, the South Yorkshire Sexual Assault Referral Centre (SARC), Hackenthorpe Lodge is open every day of the year with staff able to provide information and support.

As part of the induction process, students arriving at the University of Sheffield are invited to attend a Race Equality Conversation. 

This training is designed to 

  • establish a shared understanding of the behaviour expected 
  • provide practical tips on being a good ally and active bystander
  • outline the support available to students during studies 

Race Equality Conversations are aimed to explore race and racism, particularly racial inequality in the UK. The session will include examples of privilege, microaggressions as well as reflective and interactive questions on diversifying the curriculum and tackling difficult conversations. We will also discuss practical intervention tips, equipping our students with skills to safely intervene and protect themselves and or the victim(s). 

We highly encourage you to watch the video Racism - We need to think differently.
