A refuge is a safe house for victims of abuse, and their children, to escape to and access support to help them rebuild their lives and live a life free from abuse.
The refuges offer self-contained and shared flats across Bournemouth and Poole, one of which is identified as a space specifically for a male. They are able to accommodate single clients with a maximum of five children.
