Individual Case Study

‘S’ and her 6-year-old daughter were forced to flee the dreadful violence of her partner. They flew in a hurry with nothing except the clothes they stood up in. They had no clothes, bed linen, no pots and pans, no furniture, no winter coats – nothing. After a stay in a refuge for immediate safety they were allocated a Council flat. DCT gave ‘S’ a grant so that she could purchase essential items. ‘S’ now has a part-time job and together with her daughter is rebuilding a life and looking forward to a better future.
