Bespoke service for sexual assault victims will be Island first
August is a welcome target to have a Sexual Assault Referral Centre up and running on the Island, but there's a lot to do from now until then.
That's from MLC Tanya August-Hanson who's been calling for the creation of such a facility to be accelerated for some time.
The service will be the Island's first bespoke centre to treat and support adults and children who've experienced a sexual assault or rape.
Ms August-Hanson says it's important to get it right:
Renal patients 'near breaking point' over lack of dialysis facilities in the north
Public Health to expand 'stop nicotine' services and accept referrals from children
Fourth candidate declares for Glenfaba and Peel
Kewaigue Hill closure comes into force this morning
