Sligo Rape Crisis Centre 25 years celebration

2022 marks the celebration of the 25th Anniversary of SRCC. For 25 years we have provided prevention and treatment services around the problem of sexual violence in our community. The Centre has provided a sanctuary for those affected by sexual violence. We have seen public attitudes towards change only slightly in 25 years, a lot more work is needed to address the cause and effect of the persistent problem of sexual violence. Over the years our centre has helped thousands of individuals. It is now expanding its services to meet a rising need. To do this we need your help.

Share in the celebration

To mark this important milestone, we are planning some events, and online content to celebrate 25 years of SRCC. We are calling on friends and supporters to share in the anniversary celebrations with us at SRCC. This may be in the form of a poem, a photograph of a person or place you have found inspiring, or a short smartphone video wishing SRCC a Happy Birthday.

We would like to thank all those who have already sent in their wonderful contributions which we will gather together and put on our website. Additionally, if you have any photos from past SRCC events that you would like to share, we’d appreciate adding them in. Please send all contributions in confidence to info@srcc.ie.

Thank You

From all at Sligo Rape Crisis Centr
