尽管需求不断增长, 苏格兰的强奸危机中心因资金危机而关闭服务. Scottish rape crisis centres close services amid funding crisis, despite rising demand.

三个苏格兰强奸危机中心,包括格拉斯哥和克莱德强奸危机中心,因长期资金不足而关闭了关键的支助服务,尽管自2021年以来幸存者接触增加了42%,实际资金短缺达390万英镑。 Three Scottish rape crisis centres, including Glasgow and Clyde Rape Crisis, have closed key support services due to chronic underfunding, despite a 42% rise in survivor contacts and a £3.9 million real-terms funding shortfall since 2021. 他们警告政府维持不变的“同样安全基金”与承诺打击基于性别的暴力和让成千上万人得不到关键护理的风险相矛盾。 They warn the government’s unchanged Delivering Equally Safe fund contradicts its commitments to combat gender-based violence and risks leaving thousands without critical care. 正式的审查定于3月30日进行。 A formal review is set for March 30.
