Supporting victims of rape

The Conservative government is ensuring that victims of rape and sexual assault can access the specialist support they need so that they are properly cared for.

 

  • Our £5 million funding boost will form part of the Rape Victims’ Pledge, providing additional support for victims to make their engagement with the criminal justice system simpler and less distressing.

 

  • We are increasing the money available by 50 per cent – from £8 million to £12 million per year – for a range of services across the country, so that courageous victims who have come forward get the support they need.
