In plain English
The Police and Crime Commissioner for Leicestershire is looking to hire an Independent Domestic Violence Adviser (IDVA) to support children involved in court cases where domestic abuse is a factor. This is a specialized support role focused on vulnerable young people navigating the court system.
What the buyer wants
• Provide independent advocacy and support to children affected by domestic violence who are going through court proceedings • Assess children's safety needs and help them understand the court process • Work with courts, social services, and other agencies to safeguard children's welfare
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: This contract requires specialist professional qualifications and accreditation in domestic violence and child advocacy, which most traditional tradespeople do not hold. You will almost certainly be disqualified unless you are a qualified IDVA, social worker, or have formal training in domestic abuse support.
