Rape
Introducing our FREE ‘Drop-In & Reach Out’ support service in Bristol
This year, we were proud to launch our new, free ‘Drop In & Reach Out’ service – designed to provide accessible emotional support and wellbeing resources to people in Inner City and East Bristol.
What is a sexual assault referral centre (SARC)?
A SARC can offer free, confidential medical, practical and emotional support to people who have been raped, sexually abused or assaulted at any point in their lives. They’re usually provided by the NHS, but will always have specially trained doctors, nurses and support workers.
