## Description

Domestic abuse is a common cause of homelessness and in 2014/15 over 1,000 households sought support from the Council as homeless due to domestic abuse\. Birmingham takes an active role in preventing all types of homelessness, and our successful Sanctuary at home scheme specifically focuses on providing practical support to people experiencing, or at risk of domestic abuse/violence\. The core element that makes Sanctuary an effective option for some domestic abuse cases lies in the fact that it can help individuals and families remain in settled homes\. This is achieved by Sanctuary working in partnership with the Police and a joint approach to providing appropriate home security measures\. An experienced service provider is now required to be appointed as the Council’s preferred agent to both supply and install a range of agreed Sanctuary security measures\.
