The Norfolk Sanctuary Scheme
 The Norfolk Sanctuary Scheme can provide additional security measures to your property at no cost to yourself to make you feel safer about staying there. You could be a tenant or homeowner.

The scheme is not means-tested, but will only be available to those who wish to remain in their own home, and where it would be safe for them to do so.

If you would like to speak to someone in confidence about the project please call one of the numbers shown here. You can choose which organisation you speak to initially but it is important you know that this is a joint project between the local councils, Norfolk Constabulary and specialist voluntary support agencies.

‘Sanctuary’ is available as one of a range of options for survivors of domestic violence. If the project is not for you, any of the agencies shown here can help you look at other solutions.
