Sexual Abuse & Assault

The Glade.

The Glade provides a service to men and women who have experienced rape or sexual assault.

All clients are treated with dignity and respect, regardless of gender identity, age, ethnicity, ability or sexuality.

We understand that accessing support for sexual abuse can be incredibly difficult for anyone, but for those from black and ethnic minorities, LGBTQ+ and people who have physical, learning or mental difficulties, there are often extra barriers that may make you feel unable to reach out for support.

However, The Glade are incredibly experienced in supporting clients who have experienced rape or sexual assault, and we would urge patients to contact them if they need to.

What can they help with?

• A forensic medical examination to gather evidence

• Access to medication if appropriate

• Referral to an independent Sexual Violence Advisor

• Referral to internal/external counselling

• Sexual health follow up
