Shout out to our amazing staff team this #IWD2024 who have shown the power that women working together have to make a difference. #InvestInWomen #survivorsmatter

Our hearts go out to Sarah Everard, her family and friends and all survivors of sexual violence and abuse today. We despair at the inadequate vetting procedures, repeatedly missed red flags, and inaction that contributed to this horrendous misuse of power.

🔔 Our new report shows that children are more likely than adults to be the victims of sexual offences.

They are the victims in 40% of all sexual offences - including rape and sexual assault - yet make up just 20% of the population in England & Wales 1/9

Adequate funding for women’s refuges must be a priority | Letter theguardian.com/society/2024/f…

We've leant our voice and name to this campaign. No org wants to close their door to referrals. We need to send a strong message to funders/commissioners that cuts to crucial services is never acceptable. It's a worrying message to all of us in VCSE

It was great to have the team Kairos WWT standing with us yesterday. Thank you so much for your continued support. #survivorsmatter

Last year, over 20,000 children and young people accessed Rape Crisis services. Recent CSA Centre findings estimate that 55,000 people in England & Wales are on waiting lists to access support in response to child sexual abuse, and the average waiting time is more than 6 months.

Huge thank you to everyone who has shown their support over the difficult decision we’ve had to make to close our waiting list due to funding cuts.

Please continue to champion our cause by signing our petition and joining our protest on 20th February.

Tens of thousands of child sexual abuse victims face long waits for vital support, a major report by the @csacentre has found.

In the West Midlands there are an estimated 20,000 victims for every support service and waiting times have doubled since 2015.

Beauties - yet again. Supporting the incredible Coventry Rape and Sexual Abuse Centre again.

👏👏👏👏👏

To make victims and survivors wait years for their cases to reach court, to postpone their court dates – often multiple times – and keep them in the dark about important updates is unacceptable.

We are part of a wider rape crisis movement that does not see male violence against women and girls as inevitable. That's why we're fighting for a future where all women and girls live safely, freely and with dignity.

Together, we can end sexual violence and abuse.

In the run up to #16daysofactivism we’ve launched an animated campaign to highlight the scale of sexual violence in society and its wider impacts. It aims to raise awareness and help reduce the stigma of talking about sexual violence and abuse.

Men and boys who have been impacted by sexual violence can experience serious mental health problems but many face barriers to getting the specialist support needed. Whether an assault happened recently or long ago we're here to help. #InternationalMensDay crasac.org.uk/need-help/men-…
