Committed to supporting vulnerable women and their families
Leaving a gift to us in your will is a promise to be there for the women and children cross Derbyshire who are suffering from stress, abuse or victimisation.
Making a Will is something that is private and important for everyone, it makes sure that your wishes will be reflected in what happens after you die. No matter what size of gift you leave it will change lives, it will help our work live on and will offer support to those in need.

The Change Programme has given me an understanding of life, relationships, the world, myself and empowerment. I felt heard and not judged, and also felt a deep self-realisation and knowledge of self

One of the main reasons I chose to volunteer is to empower women to overcome obstacles and achieve their goals. By volunteering, I not only contribute to the community but also experience personal growth and development, knowing that I am part of a supportive and collaborative environment that positively impacts the lives of others. I enjoy volunteering at Women’s Work because of the incredibly supportive and encouraging staff members and other volunteers that create a nurturing environment. Their constant presence and unwavering support make it a truly uplifting experience.
