The MoJ confirmed that Police (Fire) & Crime Commissioners (PCCs/PFCCs) will receive £69.1 million ‘core’ funding, £27 million ringfenced funding to recruit and retain 700 Independent Sexual Violence Advisors (ISVAs) and Independent Domestic Violence Advisors (IDVAs) and £15.7 million ringfenced funding for domestic abuse (DA) and sexual violence (SV) support services.

On 25 March 2022, it was confirmed that this funding will be delivered over a multi-year basis until the end of 2024/25.

If you would like to apply for funding, you must complete a needs assessment form.  This application should cover:

Where posts are recruited in 2022/23, funding will be assessed for allocation for 2023/24 and 2024/25.
