We would like to inform all our potential and current service users that The Glade Adult Sexual Assault Referral Centre (SARC) (Bransford Hub) located in Worcestershire will be temporarily closed from 11:59 PM on Wednesday, 31st July 2024, for approximately 3 to 4 months due to essential maintenance work.
While we understand the critical nature of our services, this temporary closure is necessary to carry out the required renovations and improvements to the facility. This decision has been made to ensure the safety, comfort, and quality of our services for our service users.
