Through social, educational and emotional support we have helped thousands of women to gain confidence, qualifications and into work. With our help, local BAME women, who might otherwise experience isolation due to cultural barriers, have become active and valued members of the community. We are extremely proud of the work we do and the women who have achieved so much with our assistance. Many have become volunteers and ambassadors for the Centre wanting ‘to give back to the community’.
We are the only women’s centre in the heart of Leicester, that provides a culturally conducive environment with multi-lingual staff and volunteers delivering a range of accreditations such as IT, ESOL, Mental Health Awareness, accredited level 2 business courses and more. We have a purpose built industrial textiles training centre, helping hundreds of women train and gain employment or start their own business. Our Information Advice and Guidance services support women to search, apply and prepare for jobs and gain employment including setting up their own businesses. In addition, we offer women opportunities to support each other through peer groups. Our on-site childcare means women with pre-school children can access support without spending a fortune on childcare. Our mental health and domestic abuse counselling services help break down cultural barriers and enable women to achieve independence and success.
