2026 Victims Survey now open
The 2026 Victims Survey is now open to anyone aged 16+ who has been affected by crime since January 2021, regardless of whether you reported to the police or not.
It is the only national, independent survey that gathers insights directly from victims across all crime types and stages of the justice process.
The survey is completely anonymous and takes around 15 minutes to complete. Taking part in the survey helps the Victims’ Commissioner understand what is working, where improvements are needed, and helps to shape the recommendations she makes to improve outcomes for victims.
The survey is available in both English or Welsh, and is open from 8 April to 6 May 2026.
For more information, visit the Victims Commissioner's website.

RASASC was delighted to be invited to be part of the VAWG roundtable discussion hosted by MP Helen Maguire
We’re pleased with the news that children who have experienced child sexual abuse and exploitation are now to be considered in the new Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) strategy, as announced by MP Jess Phillips. The new VAWG strategy was due to be published in the summer, but has now been pushed back towards the end of 2025. We will have to wait until the final strategy is released to see the impact it will have for those concerned. RASASC was part of a large contingent of signatories on an open letter to the Home Secretary, requesting that victims of child sexual abuse and exploitation be included within the VAWG strategy. We are delighted that this action has had a positive impact. Following several delays and a degree of mystery surrounding what will be in the final version, we sincerely hope that the completed VAWG strategy has heeded the advice and recommendations from experts, to deliver an effective and fully resourced plan of action.
