New Victims' champion for people in Stockton

Meet Riada Kullani! 

She’s Stockton’s new Community Connector, working to make sure some of the most vulnerable victims of crime, abuse and trauma are signposted to the right recovery services. 

Among those to benefit will be victims of domestic abuse, sexual violence, hate crime, antisocial behaviour, exploitation and other forms of trauma.  

The role has been made possible with a £15,000, one-off grant from Cleveland Police and Crime Commissioner’s (PCC) Protect and Support Fund. 

Employed by Catalyst Stockton, Riada is based at the town’s Wellbeing Hub. However, she’ll organise outreach sessions to make sure she connects with some of the area’s more disadvantaged and isolated communities. 

In addition to outreach, Riada will hold one-to-one sessions with victims, refer into services and act as a victims’ advocate, making sure clients’ needs are met. 

The Community Connector is based at the Wellbeing Hub, in Wellington Square, Stockton on Tees. TS18 1RG
