This happens both to women and men, and also children. If this has happened to you then it is important that you seek help from your doctor. There are places near you that offer confidential and safe sexual health services, in case you have received injuries or have caught a sexually transmitted disease. For all of these services, you can get access and advice for contraception to prevent pregnancy or Sexual Transmitted Dieseases. If you have been upset about what has happened to you then please see what is available for mental health support and treatment in the mental health section. https://refugeehelpbrightonandhove.org.uk/refugee-services/sexual-violence 0d0871f0806eae32d30983b62252da50 Wed, 09 Apr 2025 16:50:00 +0000 Abuse, violence and community safety The only Mosque in Hove, Shah Jalal Mosque offers a place of worship. https://refugeehelpbrightonandhove.org.uk/refugee-services/shah-jalal-mosque e17184bcb70dcf3942c54e0b537ffc6d Wed, 09 Apr 2025 16:50:24 +0000 Spirituality, faith and religion Shree Swaminarayan Hindu Temple is located in Portslade, offering multiple services.
