About the Drive Project (Bradford)

The Drive Project is not a pilot or test programme, it is a well-established national model, currently being rolled out across England, reflecting sustained national commitment to coordinated, whole-system responses to domestic abuse. In Bradford, the service is being delivered by the [Employer hidden — sign up to reveal] in partnership with the Drive Central Team and West Yorkshire Combined Authority and will be fully embedded within local safeguarding and partnership arrangements from the outset.

The Drive Project works with individuals who pose the highest risk of causing serious harm within intimate or family relationships. The programme combines intensive individual case management with a coordinated multi-agency response, creating the conditions for accountability, behaviour change and sustained risk reduction, while keeping victim and survivor safety at the centre of all activity.

The Bradford Drive service will be delivered by a dedicated, multi-disciplinary team, comprising of:

• 1 Service Manager (full time)
• 4 full time Case Managers
• 2 full time Independent Domestic Violence Advocates (IDVAs)
• 1 full time Administrative and Panel Coordinator

The team will operate with fidelity to the Drive model.

Funding and Retention

The Drive Programme is currently funded through a Home Office national programme. While funding beyond March 2027 remains subject to government spending reviews, the organisation offers a £2,000 retention payment to staff who successfully complete the full funded period.
