Description
The Secretary of State for the Home Department (the "Authority"), acting through the Interpersonal Abuse Unit, intends to make an amount up to £6,000,000 over two years (financial years 2023/24 and 2024/25) of grant funding available. The intention is to fund approximately 15 separate Recipients. Tackling VAWG is a top Government priority. This funding will deliver on commitments and ambition within the Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) Strategy 2021 and the Tackling Domestic Abuse Plan 2022. A key pillar in both the Tackling VAWG Strategy and the Tackling Domestic Abuse Plan is to transform the whole of society's response when supporting victims. Our ambition through this competition is to identify and fund best-in-class organisations able to design, lead and deliver services for the users and communities they aim to serve, in order to improve outcomes for victims of VAWG. Given the importance of the role 'by and for' organisations play, this funding is exclusively for delivery of 'by and for' services.
