Jigsaw Independent Rape & Sexual Advice Services

Based in Louth, Lincolnshire, JIRSAS has been developed to provide a one stop website, offering an overview, signposting service and network system of information regarding rape, sexual violence, sexual intimidation and sexual assault. To not only private individuals who may have been the target of such mistreatment, but also to support the statutory, voluntary and corporate sector with their existing service provision and knowledge in this sensitive area. Appropriate links are being added regularly in order to assist.

A branch of the already established Jigsaw Counselling & Consultancy Services, the team have been working with rape and sexual violence, including sexually violated men, women and children since April 2003 on a daily basis. Statistically the number of sexually violated clients since Jigsaw began is as follows:
 

  • Men 189

  • Women 462

  • Children (M) 149

  • Children (F) 347

As well as many other issues we have seen 1,147 clients with sexual violation related incidents in nearly seven years of operation. This number continues to rise on a weekly basis. Figures correct as of 10th August 2009.
