Make a Referral

Referral to the IDVA Service and/or MARAC
 
IDVAs only take referrals from Professionals.
 
To make a referral, you need to complete the form available at the link below which includes details of the victim and alleged perpetrator: 

app.oasiscloud.co.uk/OASISDA/Core/Public/Referral/group_online_referral.aspx?apikey=136d0649-02b9-48be-a5e1-7ae8ee638078

 PLEASE NOTE THE REFERRAL FORM WILL BE UNAVAILABLE FROM 16TH TO 18TH MAY - REFERRALS DURING THIS PERIOD SHOULD BE MADE TO THE RELEVANT IDVA SERVICE (see info below)

The IDVA Service accept referrals where there is current domestic abuse, within the last 3 months.  Referrals that don't meet that criteria, or that have missing information, may be rejected.  For guidance on what makes a good referral, please see the document at the bottom of the page.

 
Please complete a DASH Risk Indicator Checklist (below) and attach to the online referral form.
 

Due to the decoupling of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough DA Services, some changes have been made to referral processes and specialist IDVA posts:

  • In Peterborough only, there is an Eastern European IDVA working with clients from  countries, including Lithuania, Romania and Russia.  
  • In Cambridgeshire only there is a specilaist Minority Ethnic IDVA working with clients who need specialist language or cultural support 
  • There are no longer any Health IDVA posts in Cambridgeshire or Peterborough - referrals can still be made to the relevant IDVA Service using the form above
  • Young People's IDVAs criteria has changed - more info at Referrals for young people



If you have any queries, please contact the relevant IDVA Service according to where your client currently lives:

 

 For those who score 17+ on the DASH, referrals can be made without consent (although consent is preferred), and the case will go to MARAC.  If the DASH score is low but you feel the person is at high risk, please contact the relevant email address above for advice

For anyone else, referrals can be made with CONSENT for those who score 14-16 on the DASH Risk Assessment

For individuals over 60 years of age, the Older Peoples DASH may give a more accurate assessment of risk
