East Suffolk Council has been working in partnership with other districts and boroughs across the districts to deliver an enhanced and tailored approach to those suffering from domestic abuse. In partnership with Anglia Care Trust and Orwell Housing, we have been able to deliver a number of services across the district, including the provision of satellite unit accommodation, enabling the provision of specialist accommodation based support to help local areas meet the priorities for domestic abuse services. This has ensured the safety of those fleeing domestic abuse and providing a holistic approach to support victims who are not able to access refuge accommodation because of complex needs. This is a provision offered in addition to refuge accommodation available in Lowestoft and other areas of the district and across East Suffolk. We have two units of accommodation in the North and two in the South that are accessible by all Suffolk local authorities on a reciprocal basis.
