The Women’s empowerment focusses on many of the skills we need to run successful, well balanced lives. These groups and workshops are open to all women in the community as well as to our own ladies and we often have specialists to run a workshop which deals with their area of expertise. A lot of the classes are also run by our qualified staff.
Topics include:
Staying safe and how to leave an abusive relationship safely.
Parenting skills
Financial skills and budgeting
The effects of domestic abuse on physical and mental health
Forming plans for our life and breaking that down into manageable steps
The law, both civil and criminal
Legal aid
The police, when to call them and what they can do to help you.
Services available to you in the area
Assertiveness training
And many more. The list is added to frequently.
