Sefton is seeking to procure a fully
Integrated Domestic Abuse Service (IDAS) from 2025 for a minimum of
3 years. The service will provide holistic support to the victims
and families of domestic abuse, irrespective of protected
characteristic or risk level. The service will provide therapeutic
counselling to those that require it in order to build resilience
and aid recovery from the long-term effects of domestic abuse. The
service will address a number of the priorities outlined in the
action plan accompanying the Domestic & Sexual Abuse Strategy
2023-2028.
