Domestic Abuse Safe Accommodation Support Services Dynamic Provider List

Nottinghamshire County Council wishes to procure a range of Domestic Abuse Safe Accommodation Support Services using a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS). Suitably experienced organisations will be selected to join the Domestic Abuse Safe Accommodation Support Services Dynamic Provider List. All services procured under this DPS will have a common aim to provide comprehensive specialist support services for survivors of domestic abuse and their children residing in domestic abuse safe accommodation. In particular the Services must: • Ensure the highest degree of safety and security for survivors residing in the accommodation • Survivors must be assessed and offered individual support to meet their needs and aid their recovery • Survivors should be supported to access other services to meet their physical and mental health needs. • Survivors should be supported and encouraged to make independent decisions about their lives • Services should be responsive to the needs of children and young people, ensuring they receive the right support to deal with the trauma they have endured.

To be included on the DPS organisations must have a minimum of three years’ experience of delivering specialist support services for survivors of domestic abuse.
