Rape Crisis England & Wales
With our 36 Rape Crisis centres we deliver specialist services to those affected by sexual violence & abuse, and aim to educate, influence and make change.
- Survivors of sexual violence and abuse have told us that this week's news, and the response to it all, is incredibly triggering and overwhelming. Survivors, thank you for sharing with us how this is affecting you right now. It's important. Your voice matters. 💜
- We don't believe self-swap 'rape kits' will be effective at bringing perpetrators to justice or providing support to survivors. Experts share our concerns: opendemocracy.net/en/enough-anti-rape…

- Like many survivors of sexual violence, Morwenna persisted with a criminal justice process at considerable personal expense, because she wanted to protect other women. Help us fight for criminal justice system reform: donate.biggive.org/campaign/a05WS00000… #ItsNotOk
- Today’s report shows that our calls for change have been heard, the retraumatising experience of many survivors has been acknowledged, and our recommendations have also been included in Sir Leveson’s review. It’s a long journey to fix our broken court system, but we’ll still be here for survivors💜
- Survivors of sexual violence and abuse deserve access to a criminal justice system that is fit for purpose. That isn’t the reality at the moment. 1/2
- We welcome Sir Leveson’s report, and support its overall aim to address the state of the Criminal Court, as well as its specific focus on RASSO cases in several areas. Read our full statement: rapecrisis.org.uk/news/rcew-we...
