Our Natives of the World adult programme supports women to lead happy, healthy and creative lives, where they feel valued for the contributions they make.

We work with women who have experienced inequality and trauma, supporting them to build confidence, develop skills and reconnect with their strengths. Many are navigating the asylum system.

The women we work with often face isolation and challenges to their wellbeing, including the impact of long-term physical and mental health conditions. Through our programmes, we create space for connection, creativity and rebuilding confidence.
