    "description": "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. \nThe Police and Crime Commissioner acknowledges that as a society we need to look beyond an individual\u0027s 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. \nThe 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. \nThe 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. \nThe service will be available across the whole of Hampshire and Isle of Wight. \nMinimum \u00a3550,000 per annum, maximum \u00a3650,000 per annum.",

          "description": "Core service priorities and deliverables\n1.\tPan-Hampshire Single Point of Contact\nThe Single Point of Contact will consolidate existing provision, ensure equal access, and improve efficiency. A central point of contact will manage all referrals, information, advice, and support.\n2.\tAssessment of risk and need\nThe service will work with individuals across the spectrum of risk and need. The importance of a robust risk and need assessment is recognised, however, this should be dynamic and proportionate to the individual and their circumstances. \n3.\tEarly Engagement Pathway\nThe service will offer an evidence-based Early Engagement Pathway - a short, impactful intervention to raise awareness and understanding of Domestic Abuse. The Early Engagement Pathway will focus on helping people to understand the impact of harmful behaviours on victim-survivors (including children), identify triggers to their harmful behaviour, consider the legal implications, and develop coping strategies. \n4.\tTime to Think Pilot\nA one-off, voluntary session designed for individuals involved in Domestic Abuse incidents that have been resolved through an Out of Court Resolution (subject to Police approval processes). The session aims to raise awareness of harmful behaviours in relationships, explore their impact, and initiate motivation for change.\n5.\tBehaviour Change Interventions\nThe provider will be expected to provide an evidence-based intervention that aligns with national standards and good practice with an additional pathway for young people (particularly fathers). \n6.\tDomestic Abuse Navigators \nNavigators will support individuals with multiple and intersecting needs, and those identified by the Police as part of risk management arrangements. \n7.\tIntegrated Victim Safety Support \nIntegrated victim safety support is a vital component of any service that works with people causing harm in their intimate and non-intimate relationships. This support is in addition to any existing services for victim-survivors of Domestic Abuse and is considered a non-negotiable element to the success of any intervention for people causing harm. \n8.\tConfidence to have challenging conversations\nThe service will seek to build confidence amongst professionals across a range of organisations to have conversations with people causing harm in their intimate and non-intimate relationships. The service will also provide training and resources to help professionals engage in these conversations and understand and confidently utilise referral pathways.\nOn the 16th July 2025 the Home Office announced a \u00a353 million investment to expand The Drive Project. This initiative forms part of the governments broader Plan for Change and pledge to tackle Domestic Abuse. The expansion will see up to 15 new areas launching by March 2026, with a full roll-out across England and Wales to follow . The announcement confirmed that The Drive Project will be delivered in partnership with Police and Crime Commissioners, however it is not yet clear what form this will take, the level of funding to be made available or if it will align with Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary\u0027s existing approach to the risk management of people causing harm. The provider will need to be flexible and adaptable to support the Police and Crime Commissioner and The Drive Project partnership as more details emerge.\nhttps://www.gov.uk/government/news/landmark-package-to-pursue-domestic-abuse-perpetrators"
