We are the Sexual Assault Referral Service for London. We have three centres that cover the whole of the city.

We are a centre of excellence and our work is internationally recognised as gold standard in the field.

How we are organised and commissioned

The Havens are managed by King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.

The service is commissioned and jointly funded by NHS England and the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC).

Havens value statement

The Havens are committed to non-judgemental care and support regardless of the circumstances. If there is anything you feel we should know, or we can do to support you, please tell us. This could be aspects of your personal life, for example your gender, sexuality, neurodiversity or faith/cultural background that might be important for us to understand or know about in thinking about and discussing your needs.

Confidentiality statement

If you do give us your contact details or, provide identifiable information, we will usually keep your contact with us completely confidential. However, in certain circumstances we may have to share information with another agency (for example, social services, police or the ambulance service) in order to protect you, or another person.

This will apply if:

• you are a child or young person under 18 who has experienced, or is at risk of, serious harm
• you provide information about a child or young person under 18 who has experienced, or is at risk of, serious harm
• we feel you are a vulnerable adult who has experienced, or is at risk of, serious harm
• you provide information about a person we feel may be a vulnerable adult who has experienced, or is at risk of, serious harm

The person you speak to will be happy to discuss this in more detail. Whenever possible we will advise you before any breach of confidentiality is made.
