Safe Accommodation Services

Award outcome

Description

In Surrey our vision is for every adult and child experiencing domestic abuse to be seen, safe and heard, and free from the harm caused by perpetrator behaviour. The work we undertake will drive all action against domestic abuse in the County. It will influence change and secure the commitment of all to prevent harm, which devastates victims' lives, no matter how old they are, and has a disproportionate effect on the lives of young people. Surrey's ambition is 'no one is left behind' and domestic abuse services play a key role in achieving this ambition. We want to achieve the priorities in our Support in Safe Accommodation Strategy, which include: • Continue to explore with Surrey's refuge and outreach providers opportunities to further enhance the support available to survivors and their children that reside in safe accommodation • Explore opportunities for resettlement, skills and employment to allow survivors of DA to live an independent, healthy and fulfilled life in the Communities they live in. • Build on the two-way communication, training and partnership work between safe accommodation providers, outreach providers and district and borough housing teams, to further improve the client journey when moving from safe accommodation to fully independent living. • Work with partners to explore further opportunities to support survivors (adults and children) of DA to stay safe in their own homes and communities, where it is safe to do so. To achieve those objectives and ambitions, SCC is looking to procure Safe Accommodation Services. These services will be delivered under 6 distinctive Lots, as outlined below: • Lot 1 Refuge - Safe Accommodation. This lot includes three different areas and Bidders are required to indicate the area they are bidding for:- Woking- Guildford- Reigate and Banstead & Waverley • Lot 2 Refuge Accommodation for All (RAFA) and Resettlement • Lot 3 Safe at Home and Community IDVA Service • Lot 4 Perpetrator Accommodation • Lot 5 Young People Using Abusive Behaviour Intervention • Lot 6 Support Survivors who are subject to Immigration processes.
