We have eight safe houses in the city including a dedicated house for black and ethnic minority women and children, a house for single women and a block of self-contained units. In the safe houses we can house up to 42 families at any one time.

The housing is direct access and women and children can move in immediately. During their stay, women will have a flexible support plan and can access counselling and support for their children.

Where possible, when families move on, we offer resettlement support to enable them to settle into their new communities. For the women who returned to their partners, we encourage them to keep in touch in case they needed to use a safe house again.
