About the fund
The Women in Safe Homes fund is managed jointly by Resonance and Patron Capital. It provides affordable, safe and secure homes across the UK for women who are experiencing homelessness, survivors of domestic abuse, have experience of the criminal justice system or have other complex needs. It acquires homes and leases them to women’s sector and homelessness charities which, in turn, will let them to women at risk of homelessness, with a secure tenancy. The women will also receive specialist support to help them recover from abusive or difficult circumstances.
The fund reached its target of raising c.£30 million from 20 investors from the UK and US, including trusts, foundations and HNWs. It aims to provide around 120 affordable homes across the UK and to house around 350 women and their children over its lifetime.
