Description

The recommendations within Sefton's Domestic Abuse Needs Assessment regarding accommodation included:\r
• The safe accommodation offer in Sefton should be improved. Bed & Breakfast should not be used to house those affected by domestic abuse.\r
• Pathways and mechanisms into specialist domestic abuse services should be reviewed.\r
• Using Council of Europe calculation with minimum recommendation of one space per 10,000 population, this equates to 28 refuge spaces for Sefton.\r
Whilst Sefton already had a Complex Women's Service, this is within Homeless Services and does not specifically address domestic abuse. Sefton is looking to commission a Provider who can provide a person-centred, trauma-informed service specifically for women who have experience domestic abuse. The service will complement the Integrated Domestic Abuse Service and the Domestic Abuse Refuge.\r
