Welcome

We are a domestic abuse and sexual violence charity working across the Bradford area. We support women, men and children who are survivors of domestic abuse and sexual violence.

We know that people experiencing domestic abuse heal quicker from the trauma if they can continue living in their own home with their support networks around them. Our service works to keep victims in their homes- hence our name Staying Put.

Solace Housing is a subsidiary of Staying Put. Their mission is to transform lives by providing housing to those who have experienced domestic abuse, with short- and long term options. Their inclusive homes are for anyone who needs them.

Note: Check out our accessibility page to get this website in a different language.

Our service supports anyone in the LGBT+ community who is, or has been, subjected to domestic abuse and sexual violence. We aim to support, empower and advocate for everyone in the LGBT+ community to the best of our abilities, including working with other organisations both regionally and nationally to make a safer world for all.
