Sexual Assault Response Coordination Service (SARCS) can help arrange care for you in the days following a rape or sexual assault. They may be able to arrange forensic examination after a recent sexual assault in order to collect evidence of a crime, without making a report to the police at that time. They also provide supportive follow-up and counselling services.

SARCS Guidance on Disclosure of Rape or Sexual Assault for Healthcare professionals is available through Right Decisions website.
