MAIN REPORT
1) Purpose of the Report:
1.1. The Hampton Trust provides a well established project working with families who have suffered from Domestic Violence, and this has been funded from a number of different sources as grant streams from central government have changed or come to an end.
2) Contextual Information:
2.1. In this Financial Year £32,000 was awarded by the County Council to the Hampton Trust to continue this work, and this was agreed by Cabinet from the Safer and Stronger Communities element of the Area Based Grant. Cabinet considered this decision, which was put forward by Chief Executives Department, as the SSC element of the ABG was not allocated to any service budget at that time.
2.2. At the time this decision was made Children's Services resolved that a further £7,500 could be made available from within Children's Services resources to the Hampton Trust to strengthen this work, and to extend its reach, given that Domestic Violence work was identified as a priority area for further improvement in the JAR and LAA. A similar amount was also provided in 2007/8 for additional training programmes.
2.3. Funding can be drawn from the Children's Services element of the ABG.
3) Conclusions:
3.1. That grant payment of £7,500 to the Hampton Trust should be made to support the work of the Domestic Violence co-ordinator, and the associated training programme.
4) Summary Recommendations:
4.1. That a payment of £7,500 is made to Hampton Trust as detailed above, as Children's Services contribution to this key area of preventative work.
