DEVON RAPE CRISIS AND SEXUAL ABUSE SERVICES

Devon Rape Crisis and Sexual Abuse Services is a specialist organisation offering trauma-informed support for anyone over the age of 13 who has experienced sexual violence. We are a feminist organisation run by women, and we maintain a women-only space. We do also support boys and men who have been affected by sexual violence or abuse. As well as offering high quality specialist support we aim to change society’s understanding of the nature and impact of sexual violence. We campaign for an end to sexual violence. We are exploring new and better ways to educate people on the reality of sexual violence. Our services are for anyone aged 13 and over who lives in Devon or Torbay. We offer face-to-face support*, online sessions and telephone support. We also run an anonymous telephone helpline and an anonymous email support line. *Because of Covid restrictions we are currently not running any face-to-face sessions. All support work is being done online or by phone. We support people who have experienced rape, sexual assault or sexual abuse - either recently or at any time in the past. It doesn't matter when it was, we are here to listen to you, to believe you and to support you.
