Description

The Domestic Abuse Commissioner's Office is seeking to award grant funding to an independent research organisation in the UK to conduct one-time research on victims and survivors of domestic abuse with No Recourse to Public Funds (NRPF). The purpose of this work is to support the Domestic Abuse Commissioner's priority to improve the provision of support for non-British national victims and survivors of domestic abuse. The research will be presented in a policy report containing key recommendations for government to deliver the support needed for victims and survivors with NRPF. The outcome of this research must be the provision of an accurate estimate of the number of victims and survivors of domestic abuse with NRPF in the UK, broken down by four nation areas. This research will also need to give an estimation of the cost of providing adequate support, advice and accommodation for this group as well as providing an analysis of the cost benefit and social value of improving support for migrant victims. It will also provide key recommendations to Government to influence policy and decision making regarding support for migrant victims. Bids are permitted from Not for Profit organisations, academic researchers, and social research organisations. The total grant funding will be up to £50,000 delivered over 6 months from January to June 2022. This will be allocated with no less than £15k and a maximum of £40k for the period January 2022 to March 2022. With the remaining amount allocated for the period April 2022 to June 2022 (subject to budget confirmation). Bidders should specify how they would complete this work by the completion date, 1st July 2022, including how the anticipated costs will fall over the two financial years. The successful bidder will be asked to join a start up meeting with the Domestic Abuse Commissioner's Office on 17th December 2021 or week commencing 20th December 2021.
