Sources of Support

Rape Crisis England & Wales (RCEW) supports the work of Rape Crisis Centres across England and Wales. They also raise awareness and understanding of sexual violence and abuse in all its forms.

Rape Crisis Centres offer services by women, for women and girls, but

fully acknowledge men and boys also experience rape and sexual violence and abuse. Over half their Rape Crisis Centres offer specific services to men and/or boys. If a man or boy contacts a Rape Crisis Centre that does not offer direct services to male survivors, he will be treated with empathy and respect, and signposted towards his nearest appropriate services.

Please note that it is being widely publicised that there is a long wait list due to inadequate funding of the is service

The Survivors Trust is the largest umbrella agency for specialist rape and sexual abuse services in the UK
