Hear from our team
"I love working for the Rising Sun, it brings me a huge amount of satisfaction knowing I’ve made a positive difference in a survivor’s life. I feel I’m a small part of making a big difference in the district. And the team is such a joy to work alongside – friendly, helpful and passionate about the work they do."
Amy, Trust & Foundations Officer
"What I love about working for the Rising Sun is our belief that women are the experts in their own lives. We empower survivors and help them to access the support they need to live free from abuse. It is a privilege to be trusted by survivors through probably one of the most difficult times of their lives, this is something that we never forget or take for granted."
Elaine, Head of Adult Services
"From day one, I was drawn by the energy, commitment and positivity from everyone in the team. I was immediately welcomed into the family and I am continually impressed with the dedication and high quality of work going on around me. It feels amazing to be part of such as positive force for good."
Ingrid, Head of Children & Young People Services
"Working for The Rising Sun is like working with your favourite family members. The passion that we all have for the work we do is palpable and ultimately we all have the same goal, to safeguard families from domestic abuse. The job can be tough, but it’s certainly rewarding and we have a lot of fun along the way."
Brooke, Hospital IDVA
