Dear Mr Wiffen,
Elmbridge Borough Council does not directly run any domestic violence
perpetrator programmes.
Elmbridge Borough Council
contributes £20k to the Crime and Disorder Reduction Partnership
(CDRP), who in turn give some funding to the North Surrey Domestic
Abuse Outreach programme, who work with the Walton, Weybridge and
Hersham CAB and North East Surrey Assessment Team on the North Surrey
Intervention Programme for Perpetrators. This programme is for Male
Perpetrators and their partners and children who are not engaged in
the criminal justice system (the terms of this programme are, however,
currently being relaxed due to difficulties in finding perpetrators
willing to join). It should be noted that while the Council contributes
£20k to the CDRP, it is the CDRP that determines annually where
funding should be best focussed, with many other groups than just
the North Surrey Domestic Abuse Outreach programme receiving a subsequent
undetermined slice from our contribution.
Surrey Probation Service also run an Intervention Programme for Perpetrators
as part of their sentences, and this is Surrey based and would include
Elmbridge residents if appropriate.
There is also a new Sanctuary Scheme which is looking to be launched
and the CDRP are looking to contribute to this along with a potential
contribution from Elmbridge Borough Council Housing Services totalling
£10k.
So, to clarify the Council does not directly fund either male or female
perpetrator schemes.
Yours sincerely,
Simon Kiely
