Part 1 - Accommodation Triage:We are seeking a provider to oversee and facilitate access to the accommodation procured through our Domestic Abuse Accommodation Service. This will include receiving referrals from professionals seeking accommodation for victims fleeing domestic abuse, having oversight of each accommodation type (including physical make up, location, nearby amenities) and liaising with the accommodation provider to agree a suitable placement and subsequent ‘warm handover’ by the accommodation provider.Part 2 – Domestic Abuse Outreach Service & 24/7 Helpline (and live chat):The Service will offer an accessible, community based and digital service across Suffolk for medium risk victims of domestic abuse and their children - providing appropriate information, support and interventions to maintain their safety, enable them to recover and rebuild stability, resilience and wellbeing.
Lot #2Sanctuary SchemeAwarded
The Service will install physical safety measures (e.g. locks, bolts, chains, fire alarms/lock letterboxes, property marking kits, lighting timers, etc) in the homes of high-risk victims of domestic abuse (privately owned or rented accommodation only). This will enable victims to remain in their own home –negating the need for multiple visits from different trades people, the upheaval of moving to a different location and away from essential family/friend networks.
