Supportive Women's Group

 

Our Women’s Group attracts a wide range of women from the local Leith  community and further afield. Ranging from early 20’s to early 90’s, the  women come from a wide range of cultures and backgrounds facing personal  challenges including loneliness, poverty, physical and mental health  issues, relationship difficulties, addiction, stress and low  self-esteem.

The Group meets weekly on a Wednesday's.


 Activity sessions provide an opportunity to develop new skills, grow in  confidence and have fun, with a crèche* providing valuable ‘me time’ for  the mums.  We have also been able to organise family trips in the summer  holidays. These were hugely successful, providing the women and their  children with opportunity for a great day out and the chance to get to  know each other better in a different environment.  


To learn more about the positive effects of running our Women's Group watch the videos below.
