Gift of hope winter appeal
This December, give the most powerful gift of all: the gift of hope. Your support helps us provide free, confidential, and compassionate services to people of all genders who have been affected by rape or sexual abuse at any point in their lives because no one should have to face this on their own.
Sexual violence touches everyone’s lives, whether we know it or not, we all likely know someone (friends, family, colleagues) who has been affected.
In England and Wales, 1 in 4 women, 1 in 18 men, and 1 in 6 children have been raped or sexually abused.*
At SARSAS, 4 out of 5 of the people we support have thoughts about ending their own life.
Nearly half of the people we support have survived an attempt on their own life.
Our specialist support services give people hope. Hope to heal and hope for a better future.
The demand for our services is growing year on year, beyond the sustainable funding we are receiving. On average, we receive almost 27 referrals for support every week.
By donating now, you’re doing more than supporting a cause – you’re giving the #GiftOfHope. As the festive glow fades and the challenges of the New Year take hold, your gift ensures we’ll be here, ready to listen, believe, and provide life-changing support to those who need it most.
Together, let’s make sure no one feels alone.
Donate today and give the #GiftOfHope
“I’d like to say thank you for everything you have done for me and all the amazing work that SARSAS does.
