Floating Support in Lambeth

What is the Lambeth Floating Support Service?

The Lambeth Domestic Violence Floating Support Service is coordinated by Solace Women’s Aid in partnership with Lambeth Women’s Aid and Asha Projects.

The service will provide specific support to women and their children who have been affected by domestic violence and are living in their own homes within Lambeth.

We aim to prevent homelessness through the provision of practical tenancy and emotional support, to enable victims of domestic violence to remain in their homes, if it is safe to do so.

Who is it for?

Women affected by domestic violence and who live in Lambeth (if they have a tenancy or are owner occupiers in Lambeth).

Support offered:

The service works, in partnership with other agencies, to provide an individual and appropriate emotional and practical support package, lasting between 6-12 months, which could include:

• Safety planning
• Life skills development
• Advocacy
• Housing rights
• Money (including debt) management
• Legal advice (e.g. injunctions and immigration)
• Referrals to other relevant services

Who are the workers?

The team is made up of a Senior Floating Support Worker and two floating support workers.
