(1) How many adults (16+) in your council were referred to an Independent Domestic Violence Advisor (IDVA), or any other specialist domestic abuse service provider in your area, in the last 24 months?
10,300
(2) Break this information down by month, starting on 1 January 2019 until 31 December 2020, or until the latest date you have this information available.
Please refer to spreadsheet
(3) For each month, please indicate how many adults were referred to an IDVA or another specialist domestic abuse service.
It is not possible to distinguish between referrals requiring IDVA support and other types of domestic abuse support. When people seek support or are referred, their needs are assessed individually, and support is provided according to that need, therefore this information is not held.
(4) For each adult please indicate which agency they were referred to, their gender, and the age of the person. Ideally, please provide the information in the following age categories: 18-30; 31-50; 51-65; 66-74; 75+.
See spreadsheet in question 2. All these referrals were made to Splitz Support Service, which is the only service commissioned by the Council.
