Figures on male violence and sexual assault

[Wanderabout]

Can anyone point me towards the most reliable stats on male violence/sexual assault against women in the UK.

I have stats on how many women are impacted but looking for a break down of perpetrators by sex.

Appreciate any help.

Also any links to information about whether sexual assault, VAWG is increasing, impact eg on mental health etc

VAWG impact on children

Figures on women and girls (not just adults) useful.

This is a link for a table about the relationship of offender to the victim in rape or sexual assault. www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/crimeandjustice/adhocs/008627victimoffenderrelationshipforrapeorassaultbypenetrationincludingattemptsexperiencedsinceage16byadultsaged16to59bysexofvictimyearendingmarch2017csew

The ONS should have all the information - I'll see if there are other links

The Office for National Statistics publishes this information.

Violent crime in England and Wales: year ending March 2017

ONS homicide stats

There's some info here www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/crimeandjustice/compendium/focusonviolentcrimeandsexualoffences/yearendingmarch2016/overviewofviolentcrimeandsexualoffences

If you are wondering why the title is 'from age 16 to 59', its because if you are under 16 or over 60 and raped it isn't included in the statistics

''Victim-offender relationship for rape or assault by penetration (including attempts) experienced since age 16 by adults aged 16 to 59, by sex of victim, year ending March 2017 CSEW''

Is there a way to tell how many of the crimes were recorded by gender rather than sex?

Thank you!
