Women for Refugee Women
At Women for Refugee Women, we support women who have fled persecution including rape, gender-based violence, domestic violence, forced marriage, female-genital cutting, sexual violence, torture and trafficking to rebuild their lives on their own terms. Through our programme of creative and educational activities, we support a network of over 650 refugee and asylum-seeking women to develop their confidence and skills. Every woman who joins our network will find a welcoming and supportive space in which she can meet other women and begin to rebuild her life, whether that be through speaking her first words of English or leading campaigns for a compassionate and fair asylum process.
