Our Service
At Changing Lives: Newcastle Sanctum, we provide temporary dispersed accommodation and support for individuals and families experiencing domestic abuse who are unable to access mainstream refuge services due to additional needs. These may include substance use, pets, older children, or unmet health needs.
We support people of all ages, genders, sexual orientations, races, religions, and abilities.
We will provide support in rebuilding people’s confidence and self-esteem, whilst helping them to move on from our temporary accommodation to feel safe and happy in their new community in a permanent home. We will also signpost the individuals to appropriate specialist services based on their needs, helping them to feel part of society again.
- Temporary dispersed accommodation (one-two bedroom flats)
- One-to-one outreach therapeutic support around domestic abuse and challenging circumstances
- Advice, guidance and support to appointments
- Signposting to relevant services in the community
- Support around obtaining permanent, sustainable accommodation
