Tender Description

The recommendations within Sefton's Domestic Abuse Needs Assessment regarding accommodation included:
The safe accommodation offer in Sefton should be improved. Bed & Breakfast should not be used to house those affected by domestic abuse.
Pathways and mechanisms into specialist domestic abuse services should be reviewed.
Using Council of Europe calculation with minimum recommendation of one space per 10,000 population, this equates to 28 refuge spaces for Sefton.
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.
