Funding to tackle violence against women and girls
The Delivering Equally Safe Fund provides almost £23 million each year, over 2026 to 2028, (subject to the annual budget process), to projects and services that prevent violence against women and girls and support victims and survivors.
The Delivering Equally Safe Fund supports organisations working nationally and locally across Scotland, to contribute to the priorities and objectives of the Equally Safe strategy. The fund has been in place since October 2021 and currently supports 114 projects from 106 organisations across every local authority area in Scotland.
More information about the fund can be found on our funding managers Inspiring Scotland’s website.
Our Victim Centred Approach Fund will provide £16 million to 23 organisations in 2026 to 2027, including £6 million for special advocacy support for survivors of gender based violence. This fund forms part of the Fairer Funding pilot launched in January 2025.
