Bauer Media originally built the VRU website
and hold responsibilities for hosting the site on an ongoing basis,
as well as the domain name. The VRU pay a small ongoing cost each
financial year to ensure the VRU website stays live for the public
to view and interact with. Given the new government’s
ambitions to halve knife crime and Violence Against Women and Girls
in the next decade, it is crucial that our web service is
uninterrupted.
The GM VRU is seeking to award Bauer Media
£750 to cover ongoing hosting and domain costs for the VRU
website. This is a yearly concern.
