Between 1 April 2019 and 31 March 2022, the Authority will seek to explore the potential benefits of full local commissioning of rape and sexual abuse support services with the above five PCC test areas. Rape and sexual abuse support services in these areas will be directly commissioned by their respective local PCC based on local needs.

Funding is available for the provision of specialist support services to female and male victims of rape and sexual abuse. Grant funding will be awarded for three years - from April 2019 to March 2022.

Applicants will also be eligible to apply for an uplift to the Grant if they can demonstrate that they deliver a service that is tailored to meet the specific needs of victims of child sexual abuse; supporting and providing them with the skills to cope and recover.

The purpose of this grant is to provide victims of rape and sexual abuse with access to a wide range of support. Bids will be evaluated on quality of service offered; strategic intention and value for money. Consideration will also be given to geographical location in order to ensure that there is an even spread of services across England and Wales.
