Sexual Violence Services Redesign

MOPAC is responsible for commissioning a range of services for victims of crime in London. In so doing, MOPAC is committed to evolving the support available to victims in London and in ensuring limited resources are being utilised effectively to meet rising levels of demand.

The drivers for the current challenges facing the sexual violence services include rising levels of demand and complexity of cases which are being exacerbated by delays in police investigations and court backlogs as well as workforce issues stemming from these collective pressures. Concurrently, transformation programmes are underway in both how the police and CPS deal with sexual violence as well as the NHS-led Sexual Assault Referral Centres.
