Report of the Executive Director of Community and Children’s Services.

The Sub Committee received a report of the Executive Director of Community and Children’s Services on the City of London Women’s Project which opened in April 2023.

The Chair expressed her gratitude to the Team for completing this project.

Members were informed that this was still a pilot project. Further and more complete data would be presented at the end of the year as statistics for demand and capacity were still under review.

In response to a query, Members were informed that the centre was for single women aged 18 and over. Women with dependants would be supported in accessing a more suitable accommodation.

It was noted that the centre included six ensuite studios with a small kitchen, and a larger communal kitchen space and area for the women to socialise. 

RESOLVED- That the Sub Committee note this report.
