Survey Call 

Have Your Voice Heard

We are inviting you to take part in a short, anonymous survey on experiences and impacts of sexual violence.

Your responses will provide us with vital insights to:

  • Strengthen the support and care we offer to victims and survivors

  • Inform our lobbying for social and legislative change

  • Help shape a safer and more compassionate society

The survey is completely confidential, and no identifying information will be collected. Every response matters and will make a real difference.

Éist - saying "no" to silence. 

Éist — meaning "listen" in Irish — is a support and advocacy organisation dedicated to victims and survivors of sexual and gender-based violence. 

Founded on the principle that no one should feel unheard or alone in the aftermath of trauma, Éist exists to listen, to support, and to guide.

Éist is not a replacement for the essential services already working tirelessly in this space — we stand beside them. Our mission is to fill the "grey area" where many survivors often fall through the cracks, particularly in the immediate aftermath of a crisis.

Through compassion, confidentiality, and community, Éist ensures that those affected by sexual and gender-based violence are not silenced. We are here to listen — and to help survivors reclaim their voice, their strength, and their path forward.
