Description

The Domestic Abuse Act 2021 has implemented a statutory requirement on Local Authorities to ensure there is safe accommodation for individuals subjected to domestic abuse. Mobile Advocacy is a key part of this, and this specification outlines the service that Cambridgeshire and Peterborough intend to commission.

Mobile advocacy is similar to floating support, which Women's Aid defines as 'tied to accommodation, but the accommodation is not offered as part of the service. The service is about supporting individuals subjected to domestic abuse,including children to maintain their accommodation.' It is a form of community-based domestic abuse advocacy support that focuses on their self-identified needs, rather than needs defined by the service and any pre-defined actions the agency thinks they should take.
Further information about this service is available in the tender documents.
