Sanctuary Scheme
The purpose of the Sanctuary Scheme is to help sufferers of
domestic violence and victims of hate crime to remain in their own
homes and feel safe whilst receiving ongoing support from
specialist agencies.
This new initiative launched by the Safer Doncaster
Partnership provides enhanced security for people at risk of
domestic violence, intimidation or harassment and already four of
St Leger Homes’ tenants have accessed the scheme.
Because the scheme is operated in partnership, tenants and
residents can feel secure in the knowledge that if they do have an
emergency situation, all agencies will be on hand to help.
If you live in Doncaster and are experiencing domestic violence or
harassment you may be eligible for the Sanctuary Scheme which is
accessed via the Safer Doncaster Partnership by carrying
out a risk assessment of your circumstances.
