Response
(i) & (iii)
The records we hold go back to 2009 when Community Partnership Funding (CPF) started. There is one Domestic Abuse service in Hastings which has received CPF funding (contribution made direct by Hastings Borough Council) as follows:
2009-10 £31,665
2016-17 £21,459
We hold no information on how much money has been spent on Domestic Violence services, please contact East Sussex County Council (they previously commissioned services on their own and recently began to do so in conjunction with Brighton & Hove City Council) www.eastsussex.gov.uk
(ii) & (iv)
There is only one Domestic Abuse Service in Hastings , we do not fund a separate service for black and minority ethnic (BAME) victims. All victims use the same service.
