The contract, which commenced on 1st June 2024 and will run until 31st May 2025 with an option to extend for up to a further 12 months, is valued at £400,000. This service falls under the community health services category and aims to support non-recent survivors of sexual violence.

However, non-recent cases can be referred to the community SA service.
The Service is required to meet the following needs:
*To demonstrate the effectiveness of a GP led community model for survivors of sexual violence
*To obtain service user feedback on the model

in separation from other services
*To provide education and training to all stakeholders
*To build and develop a new service with local input and collaboration from partners and
stakeholders
