Rape and sexual abuse devastate lives. Our justice system is failing survivors, and access to specialist support is a postcode lottery. Help us fight for the justice survivors deserve, and ensure specialist support is there for every survivor, for as long as they need it.

Impact areas
739,000 women were sexually assaulted last year, yet the systems meant to help them are failing them. Only 3% of perpetrators are ever charged, and survivors often wait years for justice. Access to specialist support depends on where you live, and many women wait months before they can access help. These delays cost survivors the chance to rebuild their lives. We want every survivor to have access to justice and free, specialist support after rape, wherever they live, for as long as they need.
We will campaign to fix a justice system that traumatises survivors, drags on for years, and lets most perpetrators walk free. We will fight for proper funding for specialist support, so it's no longer a postcode lottery. We will support our Rape Crisis Member Centres to deliver frontline support, wherever survivors need it. Help us fight for the system change survivors deserve.
