Coming to a SARCS
Phoning the sexual assault self-referral phone service
You can phone the sexual assault self-referral phone service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on 0800 148 88 88. Calls are free from landlines and mobiles.
A sexual assault response co-ordination service (SARCS) is a dedicated NHS service which is there to provide the healthcare and support you might need in the days after a rape or sexual assault.
If the rape or sexual assault happened in the last 7 days, it might be appropriate for you to have a forensic medical examination (FME) to collect evidence.
You can also be referred to other services, such as sexual health or counselling services.
