Operation Soteria Bluestone is inviting victims/survivors of rape and other sexual offences to take part in a survey about your experience with the police. The online survey is completely anonymous.
The survey will help us understand how the police process feels to victims of rape and other sexual offences. We will use these findings to help the police improve.
All victim/survivors of rape and other sexual offences aged 18 and over whose case police know about. Your case may have just started, been ongoing for some time, or be closed. We want to listen to all victims/survivors.
The survey is being conducted by academics at City, University of London, in line with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). If you respond you cannot be identified, and your data will be completely anonymous.
You can complete this survey online in your own time, at your own pace, and at a place that feels safe and comfortable to you. It should take around 15 minutes to complete, but you can take as much time as you need.
This is an academic survey conducted by City, University of London, and not a police survey.
Please do not report any crimes in the survey as your response will be anonymous.
