Devon Rape Crisis and Sexual Abuse Services
We offer confidential, professional support to survivors of rape, sexual assault and childhood sexual abuse across Devon and Torbay (but not Plymouth).
It doesn't matter if the abuse took place yesterday or twenty years ago, we are here to help. We are excellent listeners and we will always believe you.
We provide specialist support online, in person or by phone. Alongside this we can also give unbiased information on what your options and rights are and can help you make an informed decision about your next steps.
We really understand how difficult it can be to seek support - but getting in touch is the first step to coping with and recovering from what has happened to you.
Our confidential and anonymous helpline and email support services will be open on Monday 23rd December 6pm-9pm. We will close for the Christmas break and reopen on Friday 3rd January 6pm-9pm.
Call us on 01392 204174 or email support@devonrapecrisis.org.uk.
When our helpline is closed the Rape and Sexual Abuse 24/7 Support Line remains open every day. Call them on 0808 500 2222. This offers confidential emotional support, information and referral details.

We believe nobody should have to cope with rape or sexual abuse alone.
Our support is for all survivors of rape, sexual violence and/or sexual abuse aged 13 and over. We also offer support to the families, friends and partners of those affected by sexual violence.
What our service users say?

Made me not feel alone. Made me more confident and a better person. Someone who can cope.

Fantastic service- patient and attentive to needs. Have experienced counselling in the past and felt like I was being processed rather than respected as an individual.
