Thank you for your support in 2021

We’d like to say a huge thank you to all of our supporters, partners and volunteers for their ongoing commitment and support through yet another challenging year.

While no one could have imagined there would still be a need to deliver our services remotely at the end of 2021, thanks to the adaptability and commitment of our team, we have continued to be able to support clients and survivors through remote versions of our counselling, ISVA and helpline services.

If you need us over Christmas and New Year, we’re still here. Our helpline is operating slightly different opening hours, and will be closed on 27 & 28 December 2021, as well as 3 January 2022. Full details of the Christmas opening hours for our helpline plus other useful numbers can be found at: bit.ly/HelplineChristmas.

Our office team won’t be working on the Christmas bank holidays: Monday, 27 December, Tuesday, 28 December and Monday, 3 January 2022, but we are here as normal outside of this. If you need help and support, please visit the get support page on our website to find out how to get in touch.

With many thanks to all of you for your support throughout 2021, we look forward to achieving more with your continued support in 2022.

From all at RASASC.

Victims of child sexual abuse to be included in new VAWG strategy

by Kate Whitaker • 1 October 2025

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.
