Objectives

The group is established to provide specialist support services to anyone in the area of North Wales who has experienced any form of sexual violence. Its purpose is to provide a confidential listening service, counselling, information and support service; to advance the education of the public in the subject of rape and sexual abuse and their effects be they physical, medical, psychological or social.

Whilst RASASC NW recognises that sexual violence is a crime of violence and abuse of power, we also recognise that it is often the cause and consequence of gender inequality.

Whilst adopting this feminist perspective RASASC NW recognise that the woman is never to blame for being abused. As a reflection of this and to promote substantive equality we provide women-only spaces, which ensures that our service is available and accessible to all women across North Wales.
