CARLOW & SOUTH LEINSTER RAPE CRISIS CENTRE COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE

The Carlow & South Leinster Rape Crisis Centre (CSLRCC) is a charitable organisation dedicated to supporting survivors of sexual violence across Carlow, Kildare and the surrounding counties. Drawing on more than three decades of experience, the centre offers a safe, confidential environment where survivors can access professional counselling, 24‑hour helpline assistance and specialist education programmes aimed at eradicating the culture of sexual abuse.

Key services include one‑to‑one counselling with fully trained counsellors and psychotherapists who have additional specialist training in sexual violence, as well as a round‑the‑clock helpline that provides immediate information, emotional support and sign‑posting to further resources. The CSLRCC also runs outreach and education initiatives in schools, workplaces and community groups, promoting a zero‑tolerance attitude towards sexual violence and equipping people with the knowledge to recognise and prevent abuse.

The centre relies on the generosity of volunteers, fundraisers and donors from the local community, ensuring that every contribution directly supports the vital work of helping survivors rebuild their lives.
