What is being bought

Published requirement description

This is a service contract in partnership with Hampshire County Council, Isle of Wight Council and Southampton City Council, which will be available across the whole of Hampshire and Isle of Wight.

The new service will have an individualised, needs led approach to people causing harm in their intimate and non-intimate relationships. The service will work collaboratively with partner agencies and with people causing harm, supporting them to make choices about the support they need and what intervention is right for them.

The service will operate as a single point of contact and single point of entry for all referrals. This will include self-referrals as well as referrals from professionals to ensure simplicity, consistency and availability of opportunity.

The maximum contract value per annum is £650,000.

  • The authority expects to re-tender this requirement around 1 Jul 2030, 23:59 BST.

Extensions: Core service priorities and deliverables 1. Pan-Hampshire Single Point of Contact The Single Point of Contact will consolidate existing provision, ensure equal access, and improve efficiency. A central point of contact will manage all referrals, information, advice, and support. 2. Assessment of risk and need The service will work with individuals across the spectrum of risk and need. The importance of a robust risk and need assessment is recognised, however, this should be dynamic and proportionate to the individual and their circumstances. 3. Early Engagement Pathway The service will offer an evidence-based Early Engagement Pathway - a short, impactful intervention to raise awareness and understanding of Domestic Abuse. The Early Engagement Pathway will focus on helping people to understand the impact of harmful behaviours on victim-survivors (including children), identify triggers to their harmful behaviour, consider the legal implications, and develop coping strategies. 4. Time to Think Pilot A one-off, voluntary session designed for individuals involved in Domestic Abuse incidents that have been resolved through an Out of Court Resolution (subject to Police approval processes). The session aims to raise awareness of harmful behaviours in relationships, explore their impact, and initiate motivation for change. 5. Behaviour Change Interventions The provider will be expected to provide an evidence-based intervention that aligns with national standards and good practice with an additional pathway for young people (particularly fathers). 6. Domestic Abuse Navigators Navigators will support individuals with multiple and intersecting needs, and those identified by the Police as part of risk management arrangements. 7. Integrated Victim Safety Support Integrated victim safety support is a vital component of any service that works with people causing harm in their intimate and non-intimate relationships. This support is in addition to any existing services for victim-survivors of Domestic Abuse and is considered a non-negotiable element to the success of any intervention for people causing harm. 8. Confidence to have challenging conversations The service will seek to build confidence amongst professionals across a range of organisations to have conversations with people causing harm in their intimate and non-intimate relationships. The service will also provide training and resources to help professionals engage in these conversations and understand and confidently utilise referral pathways. On the 16th July 2025 the Home Office announced a £53 million investment to expand The Drive Project. This initiative forms part of the governments broader Plan for Change and pledge to tackle Domestic Abuse. The expansion will see up to 15 new areas launching by March 2026, with a full roll-out across England and Wales to follow . The announcement confirmed that The Drive Project will be delivered in partnership with Police and Crime Commissioners, however it is not yet clear what form this will take, the level of funding to be made available or if it will align with Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary's existing approach to the risk management of people causing harm. The provider will need to be flexible and adaptable to support the Police and Crime Commissioner and The Drive Project partnership as more details emerge. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/landmark-package-to-pursue-domestic-abuse-perpetrators · 3 years initially with the potential to extend the contract for a period two years with the increments to be confirmed.
