Safe houses

We have five safe houses in the city - one of which is a dedicated house for black and ethnic minority women and children.

In the safe houses we can house up to 28 families at any one time.

The housing is direct access and women and children can move in immediately and they can stay for up to six months. Where possible, when families move on, we offer resettlement support to enable them to settle into their new communities.

For the women who return to their partners we encourage them to keep in touch in case they need to use a safe house again.
