Victims' Commissioner's Survey
- Wed, Jul 15, 2020
-
The Victims’ Commissioner for England and Wales, Dame Vera Baird QC is asking victims of rape to share their experiences of the criminal justice system.
The VC has launched her research by publishing a request for information in the form of a questionnaire. The VC is asking anyone who has been the victim of rape - and who feels able to - to tell her about their personal experience of the criminal justice system.
It does not matter how far the offence progressed in the system, the VC wants to know about what happens at every stage. Researchers from the VC’s team will analyse the responses and produce a report which will be published in the autumn. The research is independent of the Government’s ‘End to End Rape Review’ which is continuing. . . . read more

We also accept referrals from third parties such as organisations, G.P's, Health Service Providers, Social Services, Schools etc. We also accept referrals from friends and relatives.
We always need permission from the person being referred.
You can find both self referral and organisational referral forms on our referrals page. All of our referals are now online, we do not take telephone referrals.
Confidentiality
All our services are provided within a confidential space. However, sometimes there are exceptions to this, in cases such as where:
- There are child-protection issues.
- Someone else's safety is at risk.
In such cases we will always discuss the issues with you.
