i am interested in setting up a home and providing support to male victims of domestic violence. How do i go about doing this ?

Dear Tina

You need to talk to the local Housing Department of your Council. Specifically ask to speak to the "Supporting People" team. Refuges are usually funded through a benefit called supporting people. There is generally a gap for men with children and women with older teenage sons (women with teenage sons can't access many women's refuges). Single men are right of the bottom of the list for help with housing too! But there isn't that greater interest in their problems.
