I have been sexually assaulted. What should I do?

Answer

If you or others feel at risk or consider the situation to be an emergency, you can call the Police on 999.

You can contact the University’s Security Service by phone from any campus, or go to the Security Office at Maxwell Well on Peel Park Campus, 24 hours a day (down the road to left of main Maxwell entrance then turn right and ring the intercom).

If you require medical treatment but not urgently, you can contact the St Mary’s Centre (Sexual Assault Referral Centre – a specialist service for you) helpline 0161 276 6515, or access NHS services (this website describes the different services and also allows you to search for services near you). If you are not sure what help to access you can call the NHS non-emergency advice line 111.

You can also report a sexual assault by completing a Report and support form. You will be contacted by someone with specialist training who can offer advice and support.
