Women have consistently told us
Glasgow and Clyde Rape Crisis ends membership of Rape Crisis Scotland
“This is not a decision we have taken lightly. We have done so to hold fast to our principles and to best serve the women and girls that need our support.
“We were created to provide support by and for women. We believe, and women have consistently told us, that single-sex services delivered by an all-female workforce are crucial to help them heal from sexual trauma. This approach remains our priority but is at odds with RCS’.”
Glasgow is the biggest city in Scotland and the 5th biggest in the UK.
Good for Glasgow & Clyde Rape Crisis. Someone spent a lot of time wording that statement as carefully and diplomatically as she could.
I do hope that they can secure adequate funding after this. I understand RCS is an umbrella organisation and often those receive grants from government and other sources and pass them on to member organisations.
