What is Sexual Assault?
Sexual assault refers to any sex act or behaviour committed without a person's consent, including:
- Rape (sexual intercourse without consent)
- Indecent assault (unwanted sexual touching)
- Acts of indecency (exposure to adult sexual behaviour or pornography)
Sexual assault can occur in relationships or marriages and is often perpetrated by someone known to the victim. Regardless of age, gender, culture, or sexuality, survivors can experience long-term effects, and we are here to support you.
