The Sanctuary Scheme allows families to remain in the familiar environment of their home whilst they are experiencing the problems that arise as a result of domestic violence.
The scheme provides professionally installed security measures to allow families to remain in their own accommodation. A secure room within the property has equipment installed which links to the police and provides security in the event of a threat of violence until support arrives.
This prevents homelessness and also upheaval and disruption to family life caused by moving into temporary accommodation or a refuge away from family or support networks.
