    Safe Relocation UK 2026 — Discreet Cover for Domestic Abuse Survivors

    Personal SecurityBy Roy · Director, VIP Protection Services19 June 202610 min read

    The short version: Safe Relocation UK 2026 — Discreet Cover for Domestic Abuse Survivors — published rates, real UK playbook, SIA-licensed.

    Safe relocation for UK domestic abuse survivors is one of the most sensitive types of work we do. It is trauma-informed, police-coordinated where appropriate, and built around the survivor's pace.

    Pre-Relocation Planning

    Police liaison where appropriate, refuge or new-address verification, survivor-led timetable, family solicitor coordination.

    Packing and Transit

    Two-officer team (one female), unmarked transit vehicle, route planned to avoid known frequented locations, GPS off where digital surveillance is suspected.

    New-Address Hardening

    Door, lock, window, alarm and CCTV audit at the new address inside the first 48 hours. Neighbour liaison handled by the local team, not the survivor.

    Sustained Cover Window

    Static cover at the new address for the first 7–14 days; mobile patrol and alarm response thereafter. Survivor pace dictates duration.

    2026 Relocation Rates

    Single-day relocation transit (two officers): priced per assignment. 7-day sustained new-address cover: pricing confirmed in a written quote.
