Your situation

How were you involved?

Do you have, or did you have, a civil claim?

RCSF is for those without a civil-claim route to funded counselling. If you're unsure, choose "I am not sure" and we will help you work it out.

Anything you want to tell us about what happened, in your own words.

Optional. You do not need to write in detail. Anything you share helps us understand how to help.

What kind of support do you think might help?

Optional. Even if you are not sure, that is a fine answer.

A real person reads every application. If we have questions, we will email you. You decide how, and when, to reply.

Whether we can fund counselling or not, we will let you know either way.

You can email us or call us instead. The way you get in touch does not affect how we read your application.

RCSF is not an emergency service. If you, or someone with you, is in immediate danger or needs urgent help, please call 999.
