Short profile:
What to do if you have been raped or sexually assaulted
If you are in immediate danger or the assault has just happened call 999. To report an incident or for more advice, call Kent Police on 01622 690690.
If you have been a victim of a rape or serious sexual assault:
remind yourself you are not to blame. Nothing you have done can make a person rape or sexually assault you. You are not responsible for someone else’s actions.
remember, there is no right or wrong way to respond to a sexual attack. Common feelings after rape or sexual assault include blaming yourself and feeling guilty, fearful, anxious, ashamed and angery. These are natural responses and usually reduce gradually over time. At Kent Police, we are aware of this and will support you.
How we will help you
Kent Police has officers specifically trained to help you through what has happened to you and who can offer advice and guidance. These officers work closely with support agencies and can refer you to their services so you can get the care and support you need.
It is your right to take the process at your own pace, stopping at any time you feel you need to. If at any time you don’t understand what is happening, please ask.
