Respite Rooms

The Respite rooms project is a pilot service which provides dedicated women only safe and supported accommodation for those experiencing homelessness, violence and abuse. We accept referrals through Leicester City Housing Department, Street Homelessness as well as the Police.  

Respite Rooms provides 5 flats with specialised in-house support for those suffering from homelessness and domestic violence. The maximum stay within these rooms is 7 nights where you’ll be supported by a dedicated team to help you on your next steps in this journey. In addition, we also provide 6 bedspaces offering second stage accommodation for those gradually transitioning from either Respite Rooms or refuge accommodation into long-term housing.
