Request

Request: Funding for victim-survivors of sexual violence and abuse I am submitting a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

We define sexual violence and abuse as any sexual activity that has happened without consent, and includes rape, sexual assault, child sexual abuse (including child sexual exploitation), adult sexual exploitation, and sexual harassment. Please provide the following information:

Please break this down by organisation funded, providing information about the nature of the funding arrangement, and the services to be provided by the organisation supporting victim-survivors of sexual violence and abuse, using the attached spreadsheet template.
