We’re raising funds to support people affected by sexual violence at any time in their lives. Since the Covid-19 pandemic, we’ve seen a 37% rise in people needing support which means an increase in the length of time someone has to wait to receive the help they need and deserve.

Situation
The impact of being raped or sexually abused can be devastating and lifelong. Feeling unable to trust the world around you, relationships can start to fail, potential isn’t realised, and day to day activities become impossible when you can’t stop reliving what happened. This can lead to isolation, depression, anxiety, and even suicide. It doesn’t have to be this way, reclaiming life after sexual violence is hard but it is possible
Solution
Taking the first steps to reclaim life after sexual violence takes bravery. Victim-survivors need a safe place to go, to know that they are being listened to by someone who is on their side. SARSAS is that safe place. We go with them on their healing journey. Our passionate team of specialists provide counselling, support and group work to help people reclaim their lives. Nothing can erase sexual violence, but SARSAS can help enormously in the recovery process.
