A Sexual Assault Referral Centre (SARC) is a special facility where recent survivors of rape or sexual assault can receive immediate help and support. This includes access to a forensic medical examination, which is carried out by an experienced and qualified doctor, and the opportunity to speak to the Police about what has happened to them if they wish to do so. SARC clients also receive help and advice from one of a Crisis Worker who can offer to support them and stay with them throughout the process.
