Sexual Assault Referral Centres (SARC)

SARCs offer medical, practical, and emotional support. They have specially trained doctors, nurses, and support workers.

You don't have to report an incident to the police to use a SARC. You can still refer yourself for assessment and medical care.

If you do decide to make a report to the police, they can also arrange for you to attend a SARC for medical care and, if you wish, a forensic medical examination.
