Domestic Abuse Service for People Causing Harm across Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Portsmouth, and Southampton

The Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Hampshire and the Isle of Wight is inviting organisations to tender for a new Domestic Abuse Service for People Causing Harm. The Police and Crime Commissioner acknowledges that as a society we need to look beyond an individual's presenting behaviours and focus on what their needs are. In partnership with Hampshire County Council, Isle of Wight Council and Southampton City Council, the ambition is to create culturally sensitive and safe services that people trust and want to use. This new service will adopt an individualised, needs led approach to people causing harm in their intimate and non-intimate relationships. The service will work collaboratively with partner agencies and with people causing harm, supporting them to make choices about the support they need and what intervention is right for them. The ambition is to provide a suite of intervention and support options to meet multiple and diverse needs and reduce the risk of harm, in a multi-agency framework while ensuring enhanced safety for victim-survivors and their children. The range of options will be clearly and transparently explained to people causing harm, ensuring that people are given control and choice in the decision making process, to support them to develop a trusting relationship with the service. The service will operate as a single point of contact and single point of entry for all referrals. This will include self-referrals as well as referrals from professionals to ensure simplicity, consistency and availability of opportunity. The service will be available across the whole of Hampshire and Isle of Wight. Minimum £550,000 per annum, maximum £650,000 per annum.
