Women in the capital are being forced to choose between
remaining at the hands of abuse or face homelessness, according to a new Solace
Women’s Aid report. Safe as Houses
looks at how an increased fear of homelessness is keeping women in dangerous
situations – with almost half saying that fear of losing their tenancy had been
a barrier to leaving their abuser. Nearly one in three women are said to make
six or more approaches to seek safe accommodation, only to be turned away –
with two out of three of those surveyed said to have had a negative experience
of their Local Authority’s housing services. Download the report from the
Solace Women’s Aid website.
