Evaluation & Exploration of Multi-Agency Stalking Partnership Interventions
Have you been a victim-survivor of stalking?
Do you live in Hampshire & Isle of Wight?

A team of researchers from the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Southampton are doing a research study to learn more about how to best support people who are victim-survivors of stalking.  

We want to learn more about the experiences of people who have been supported by the Multi-Agency Stalking Partnership’s Stalking Advocacy & Support Service, in Hampshire & Isle of Wight.  The goal is to help the Stalking Advocacy & Support Service improve the support they offer.

You can help us improve this service by taking part in an anonymous online survey, and/or an ‘interview’ – a telephone discussion with a researcher.  These are optional – you will receive the same service from the Stalking Advocacy & Support Service whether you participate or not.

 

The online survey can be accessed here (INSERT SURVEY LINK HERE).  This is an anonymous survey which will ask you some brief questions about your experiences since being referred to (or contacted by) the Stalking Advocacy & Support Service.  The survey should take you approximately 15 minutes.

 

If you decide to participate in an interview, this would be completely confidential and would take about an hour, at a time and date of your choosing.  We would ask you questions about your experiences since being referred to (or contacted by) the Stalking Advocacy & Support Service.  For example, were you satisfied with the support you received?  Has the support had any impact on your life?  Has the stalking stopped?  We can offer you a £25 shopping voucher to thank you for your time.

Would you like to share your experience?  

We would be very interested to hear from you. 

Please watch this video to learn more.

If you decide to participate in an interview, the researcher will ask you to provide your informed consent – to ensure that you understand why we are asking you questions, and how we will use and store the answers you give to those questions.  Click here to see a copy of the Consent Form that will be used.
