Short description

The Sussex PCC commissions a range of services including specialist services that work collectively within a Victim Hub approach. This commission is to provide both direct support for victims and witnesses of crimes or a restorative solution as part of the Sussex approach to supporting victims and witnesses of all crime. The direct offer for victims and witnesses will provide tailored support to those deemed vulnerable either by personal vulnerability or by the type of crime experienced or witnessed for Sussex. However, there are existing commissioned support services that work with those deemed to be in need of specialist support for domestic abuse, rape and sexual violence and stalking therefore this offer is to provide support for those that fall outside of this existing service provision. The restorative and mediation solution, however, is again countywide but does not have the same restrictions.
