West Mercia Rape & Sexual Abuse Support Centre

Since 1986 West Mercia Rape & Sexual Abuse Support Centre has provided a free, confidential and non-judgemental support service for individuals who have experienced any form of rape or sexual abuse at any time in their lives. 

The services we provide include a telephone helpline, face to face counselling, an Independent Sexual Violence Advisory Service, a Children and Young People's Service, a signposting service and support for partners and supporters of survivors.

The trauma caused by sexual violence and abuse may not surface for many years after the event.  We treat all calls equally sensitively and confidentially, appreciating the courage required to break silence, overcome guilt and threats, and share the events of the past whether they happened days or years ago.

We work in partnership with other professionals, groups and agencies to raise awareness and challenge issues around rape and sexual abuse and their effects on individuals and society. We also provide training courses in the specialist area of rape and sexual abuse for both the voluntary and statutory sectors.
