Cambridge Rape Crisis Centre was set up as a confidential helpline in 1982 by a small group of local women.
It was a response to a growing awareness of sexual violence against women and girls, and the need to provide a safe space.
This gave many women their first chance to talk openly about their experiences of rape, sexual assault, childhood sexual abuse and other forms of violence.
