The Havens

The Havens are specialist centers in London for people who have been raped or sexually assaulted, providing medical, forensic and therapeutic support. We’re here to help you if you’ve been raped or sexually assaulted in the past 12 months.

You can call us 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for an initial assessment.

When we need to see you urgently, such as for a forensic medical examination (FME), we aim to see you within 90 minutes. We offer an appointment based service for forensic medical examinations. If you have been sexually assaulted in the last seven days and would like advice about forensic examination or about reporting to the police please call us on 020 3299 6900. Please do not walk into our service as we will be unable to see you.

If you would like advice about support following sexual assault that took place over seven days ago please call us on 020 3299 1599. We also offer follow-up care, including counselling, tests and treatments
