    • Be able to recognise the difficulties for those disclosing or reporting sexual trauma and how that will be presented;
    • Have an increased understanding of the importance of the listener/helper role when working with sexual trauma;
    • Have an increased skills and understanding in responding to individual disclosure;
    • Have an increased knowledge and understanding of good practice.
