Raising awareness of the work of sexual assault referral centres (SARCs), as well as the local support available, is of prime importance to ensure individuals know who they can turn to for help and advice following rape or sexual assault.
We have collated some information and resources that may assist your own promotional work regarding raising awareness of SARCs.
