Incredible supporter Lauren completes the 2022 London Marathon in under five hours

Fabulous supporter Lauren has taken on the 2022 London Marathon in aid of RASASC, completing the famous course in style!


Finishing in 4 hours 58 minutes and 34 seconds, thrilled Lauren said: "What an absolute rollercoaster of a day, I can’t believe I actually did that! I hit my goal of sub five hours with 1 minute 26 seconds to spare! What a journey it has been, one of my biggest achievements to date, and one that I will cherish and remember for the rest of my life.

"Thank you so much to everybody that has donated, it means the world to me and makes all the hard work worth it, It’s still not too late to make a donation if you would like to help me reach my target!"


To date, Lauren has raised over £3,500 towards our vital work supporting survivors of rape and sexual abuse across Surrey, however she's set herself the incredible target of raising £4,000. To help her reach her goal, you can donate via her JustGiving page.


Lauren, thank you so much for your support, your incredible efforts will ensure we can reach even more survivors of rape and sexual abuse across Surrey with our counselling, helpline and Independent Sexual Violence Advisor (ISVA) services, thank you.

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.
