Characteristics and experiences of children and young people attending Saint Mary’s Sexual Assault Referral Centre, Greater Manchester

Working with Saint Mary's Sexual Assault Referral Centre (St Mary’s SARC) this research explores the value and practicability for agencies to collect core data systematically about the nature of child sexual abuse, the people involved in and affected by it, and associated services. This report extracts and analyses narrative data from almost 1000 case files, using a set of core data fields, to find out about the people who are and are not accessing SARC services.
