Description

This service provision is to provide victim-survivors of DA with Safe Accommodation support services as defined in Part 4 of the Domestic Abuse Act. This Service will provide domestic abuse specialist support, housing management functions and support to victims in shared/dispersed safe accommodation across the county.

This type of accommodation provision is intended as a short-term option. It is expected for service users to remain in the
accommodation for no more than 12 months, to which it is expected that the awarding body supports those service users until they have access to more stable accommodation.

The service will be split into three types of accommodation:
