Peterborough Rape Crisis Care Group

About Us:

Peterborough Rape Crisis Care Group was established in 1983 in response to a need amongst women for a safe, confidential, non-judgemental support service.

The sexual violence may have occurred recently or many years in the past and could have involved a stranger, relative or someone known to you.

All our volunteers come from a wide variety of backgrounds and all have been trained to help women survivors who have suffered any form of sexual abuse.

Mission Statement

Peterborough Rape Crisis Care Group is committed to supporting and empowering female survivors of rape and sexual abuse, regardless of race, ethnicity, sexuality, age and other discriminatory factors respecting individual lifestyles through the provision of a confidential telephone help line, a face to face support service and other appropriate support mechanisms.

We are committed to raising public awareness of issues surrounding sexual violence

Helpline Opening Hours:
