Women making history
Events for women continue to be a success as a turn out
of 200 women at the Health Eid Celebration in December showed. Next
month sees the launch of the Domestic Abuse Project which joins
other projects and facilities strengthening support networks for
women.
Events in March
Development workers are planning to follow their success with an
event on 19th March to explore the way women are affected by drug
use and to help mark International Women’s Day.
The Domestic Abuse Project will be holding its launch on 23rd March
at Verdon Recreation Centre, and are planning storytelling, art
work, poetry and a fine lunch. For further details of both events
see the next issue of the Messenger.
Tell your story
The Messenger is planning to focus on issues affecting
women next month and we'd like to include your experiences and opinions.
We will always treat any contact in complete confidence, and would
never give your name out without permission. So contact
us; what you say might help other women recognise their
situation, speak out and seek help and support.
