Overview

The Home Office is gathering views from organisations that support victims and survivors of child sexual abuse in England and Wales. This is not a grant competition. It is a pre-market engagement exercise to help shape a possible future grant fund covering 2027 to 2029. The Home Office wants to understand support needs, gaps in services, and what works well. An indicative funding pot of around £3 million is under consideration but has not been confirmed. Responses must be submitted by 28 September 2026.

Full details from Home Office

The Home Office is seeking views from organisations with experience of supporting victims and survivors of child sexual abuse in England and Wales. This pre-market engagement will help inform the design of a potential future grant fund by gathering evidence on support needs, gaps in provision, effective approaches, future funding priorities and market capacity. This is not a funding competition or expression of interest exercise. For the purposes of this pre-market engagement exercise, an indicative funding amount has been included. This is under consideration and will be confirmed once our approach to potential grant funding is finalised.

How to apply

This is not an application process. The Home Office is asking organisations to share their views and experience to help design a future fund. Submit your response by 28 September 2026 through the process outlined by the Home Office.
