Fund increased social services support & emergency accommodation during Covid19

Closed 27 signatures

What the petition asks

I'm worried about an increase in domestic violence due to Covid19. Particularly, I fear for all the women and children in abusive and caustic relationships during lockdown, who may have nowhere to go.
The Government should fund increase Social Services contact with dysfunctional families, create dedicated support line for lockdown-related family crisis, and fund temporary emergency accommodation for people who need it.
