Domestic Abuse: Finance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she plans to extend the flexible fund beyond February 2025.
Answered by Dame Diana Johnson
The Government is committed to supporting victims of domestic abuse.
At the beginning of October, we launched a £1.96m investment into the Flexible Fund. The Flexible Fund, administered by Women’s Aid Federation of England, can be accessed through over 470 specialist domestic abuse services.
Following the spending review announcements in October, the Home Office is now deciding how the total funding settlement is allocated across the Department to deliver the Government’s priorities. Further announcements regarding funding, including on the Flexible Fund, will follow in due course.
