### Lot Information

Lot 1

The service is to enable victims of domestic abuse to be able to access community based services through the provision of Independent Domestic Abuse Advocates (IDAA). The IDAA service will co-ordinate services to address the safety of those considered to be most at risk and work within a multi-agency framework to improve the safety and wellbeing of victims of domestic abuse and their children. Serving as a victim's primary point of contact, the IDAAs will work with their clients from the point of crisis to assess the level of risk; liaise with key partners to develop a range of suitable options; coordinate and implement plans to address immediate safety; and put clients on the path to long term safety and improved wellbeing. Although the service will not work directly with children under the age of 16, it will make referrals to safeguard children at risk of harm.
