Further to my earlier email I have received the following information our Community Safety Section. Please be aware that Bexley Community Safety Partnership, BCSP, receives money from a number of different sources of which Bexley Council is only one of the funders and therefore the figures quoted below (2005/06) are not directly attributable Bexley Council funding but are met from pooled funding.

BCSP funds a Crisis Intervention Team to the tune of £70,000 to which all victims of domestic violence will be referred. A vulnerable victims co-ordinator £37,000 is also funded which brings greater co-ordination to the work and partnership response to domestic violence.

Funding £33,000 is also provided for the Bobby Van (home security service), as well dealing with victims of domestic violence it also deals with victims of crime and burglary.

Although not directly dealing with victims of domestic abuse funding of £7,500 is also provided for the co-ordination and chairing of the Borough's Domestic Violence Forum. This group exists to co-ordinate the borough's response to domestic violence issues and bring closer partnership working to domestic violence.

Please note BCSP priorities and funding can vary from year to year and the figures quoted may not necessarily remain at this level for future years.

If I can be of any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact me.

Dear David

Further to your recent request I can provide you with the following information. For the 2005/06 financial year Bexley Council provided funding of £264,178.84 directly to Bexley Women's Aid. Funding of £75,325.00 was also provided to Bexley Women's Aid in respect of support for children affected by domestic violence within their families. I am awaiting confirmation of funding to support groups (which may include domestic violence) from within our Community Safety Programme, unfortunately the officer who was providing this information is off sick. I will let you know of any funding from this programme shortly.
