Dear Mr Wiffen,

Dorset Probation is running IDAP as per the national Probation Service directive. We are aware that there are only a very small number of convicted male perpetrators able to access this programme currently due to funding constraints. This is currently an issue of debate for the Dorset Domestic Violence Strategic Group which may well decide to fund the women's safety worker element of IDAP this financial year. At the present time we are not putting any funding into IDAP. There is a community perpetrator programme for non convicted male perpetrators running in Bournemouth (which is not part of Dorset County Council's area). There are currently no Dorset men on this programme but we have an option to buy into it should funding become available. As with IDAP at the current time we are not funding this programme.

There are no programmes available for female perpetrators (convicted or non convicted)

Yours Sincerely

Miss Hannah Rashley
Freedom of Information Officer

Dear Dave,

I am the Domestic Violence Co-ordinator for Dorset County (excluding Bournemouth & Poole Unitary Authorities). As a County Council we fund children's workers in two of the three Dorset refuges and also give a small grant to the Dorset Women's Outreach Project each year. However, we do not provide any other direct DV services for either women or men.

We are a pilot LAA area and have a target to reduce the impact of DV. Funding associated with this target is being used to fund a pilot counselling project for women in the east of the county and has also supported the mankind Initiative in setting up their lifeline project in Dorset.

Kind regards

Nicola Pengelly
