## Summary

The Home Office is seeking tenders for the "Re-advertised: Victims of Domestic Abuse with no Recourse to Public Funds Grant Funding" initiative, which aims to support victims of domestic abuse without access to public funds. This procurement process is currently at the Tender stage, with tenders closing on 5th February 2019. The total grant funding available amounts to £500,000 for interventions aimed at aiding victims over the age of 18 across all regions of England and Wales. Successful bidders will be notified after the funding allocation process, which commences post-February 2019.

This grant funding opportunity presents significant growth potential for both statutory and non-statutory organisations, particularly those focused on social services, community support, and legal assistance. Businesses that are well-suited to compete include local authorities, charities, and voluntary community sector enterprises, especially those capable of forming consortia with legal lead organisations. Given the critical nature of the funding aimed at vulnerable populations, organisations must demonstrate their competence and capability to manage and effectively utilise the grant within the stipulated timeframe.

## Notice

Victims of domestic abuse with No Recourse To Public Funds (NRTPF) are restricted from accessing services and support. The Destitute Domestic Violence (DDV) concession allows victims on spousal visas three months' leave outside the immigration rules with the ability to apply for access to public funds from DWP if needed, which may fund safe accommodation away from the abuser. The Home Office is seeking to tackle domestic abuse by allocating PS500,000 grant funding (from April 2018 to March 2020) for interventions designed to support victims of domestic abuse with no recourse to public funds (aged 18 and over) and increase knowledge on the effectiveness of the Destitution Domestic Violence (DDV) concession for those on spousal visas. Submissions are welcome from statutory (e.g. local commissioners, be they PCCs, local authorities or health commissioners, across England and Wales) and non-statutory organisations across England and Wales as well as consortium bids incorporating larger and smaller organisations (but these must have a legal lead.) Bidders should note that a Home Office condition of any grant funding will be that grant recipients are not permitted to charge, apply fees to or require payment for any activity provided in connection with this Grant Agreement or otherwise use the grant to undertake or engage in activities that result in commercial gain or profit. All bids must be for two years only, and bidders must be able to demonstrate the ability to spend their entire potential award by the 31 March 2020. All submissions will be evaluated using the criteria made available in the tender documentation. All successful organisations will be allocated funding centrally via a Grant Agreement from the Home Office. The process leading to the award of the grant will be administered by the Public Protection Unit through the Authority inbox NRTPFVictimsFund@homeoffice.gov.uk , and all submissions must be made to the above email in word format. To take part in this grant funding opportunity, please see the 'how to apply' guidance below which provides important instructions for the application process. Whilst funding will not be awarded until February 2019 at the earliest, Bidders should be aware that organisations may bid for costs already incurred since 01 April 2018, provided any expenditure that is retrospectively funded can be proven to have delivered the same outcomes and impacts that are being sought by this funding. This should not be construed as a guarantee that funding will be made available retrospectively from 01 April 2018, and Bidders must acknowledge that the Authority will have sole discretion for all consideration of whether an activity that had already commenced was replicating this funding having provided sufficient evidence to support any entitlement to retrospective funding being backdated from 01 April 2018. Additional information: How to apply 1. Interested organisations should submit an expression of interest via email to the Authority email, this should include contact information for further reference. The Authority will then provide all bid documents to interested organisations through the Authority email. 2. Organisations can request an application pack up until three days before the competition closes, at 10 a.m. on the morning of 05 February 2019, in order to give bidders sufficient time to complete the application. 3. All further communications including the submission of your bid will be managed via the Authority email NRTPFVictimsFund@homeoffice.gov.uk .
