Hampshire County Council is seeking interested partners who wish to play an active role in supporting the development of a 2-year programme that will help build a model of dispersed safe accommodation for victims/survivors of domestic abuse in addition to the existing refuge offer.
The Dispersed Safe Accommodation Programme will aim to provide self-contained safe and quality accommodation to victims/survivors who need to access emergency type accommodation but who are unable to access shared, communal refuge accommodation. The accommodation will be for victims/survivors who need a similar level of specialist domestic abuse support as provided in refuge to help them move away from the abuse and into safe and secure longer-term accommodation. The service may also accommodate victims/survivors who may not require the intensive support offered in refuge, but who are still at risk from the perpetrator of abuse.
