Delivery of Support to Victims of Domestic Abuse, including Children, in Domestic Abuse Safe Accommodation Services
The Domestic Abuse Act 2021 introduces a new duty on Tier 1 Authorities to provide appropriate support to victims of domestic abuse and their children that need to reside in safe accommodation. Surrey County Council's strategy for delivery of this duty aims to ensure all victims of domestic abuse have access to the right support within safe accommodation when they need it.
