8 Weeks to the #ASB11 Conference – What Does Good Co-Location Really Look Like?

Inside the Solace Model – and What Makes it Work
When we talk about co-location, it’s easy to imagine agencies simply sharing the same office space. But the reality is much more powerful than that. True co-location means tearing down silos, sharing intelligence, and building a victim-first approach that delivers real results.
That’s what the Solace team in Gloucestershire have achieved. Their model is built on:
- Multi-agency working that cuts through red tape
- A zero-barrier, victim-first approach
- Proactive use of enforcement to prevent escalation
In 2024 alone, Solace secured 133 ASB injunctions and closed 30 properties, helping victims regain safety while easing pressure on frontline services. It’s proof that co-location, when done well, is more than a partnership – it’s a transformation in how victims are supported.
At #ASB11, you’ll hear directly from Katie Mellon – one of the team behind this model, exploring how it works in practice and what lessons other areas can take away.
And that’s just one part of the programme. Alongside Solace, you’ll find:
- Practical sessions on enforcement, prevention and community engagement
- Real-life insights from practitioners and victims
- A chance to connect with other professionals facing the same challenges you do
