Commited to supporting vulnerable women and their families
Women’s Work is extremely grateful for the contribution of volunteers who help us in various ways.
Whether that's providing support in the office, helping with our street outreach sessions, helping to facilitate group sessions or accompanying our women to various appointments and training courses, each and every one of our volunteers is vital to what we do on a daily basis.
Developing key life skills
Being a volunteer is a great way to gain skills and experience which can help with securing future employment.
Many of our volunteers say that being a volunteer is much more than just ‘giving something back’, they feel part of a family and it has helped improve their social life and sense of wellbeing. 50% of our staff team started here as volunteers.
Fantastic programme, run by amazing ladies. Has made me feel more confident and have a better outlook on life.

I find Women’s Work a safe place to go when I need somewhere to listen to me without judgement.

With it being such a hard time and it being in a new environment for both me and the kids. I was so happy and relieved with the contact centres warmth towards us. Making a potentially difficult situation simply amazing!

I joined the charity because the belief and values that were used to support and encourage vulnerable women and families are also a part of my beliefs and values. Also, the programmes that were developed are encouraging and useful. The staff are committed and helpful. Here at Women’s work the goal is to make a difference in individual lives and by far that is the best part of volunteering for me.

I can’t thank Women’s Work enough for their kindness help and guidance which has enabled me to help women within the community. Just seeing the positive impact Women’s Work makes on service users has made me so proud to be part of the volunteer team. Thank you Women’s Work for all that you do for women and thank you so much for letting me be part of that.

After doing the Anger Management programme, I am now able to walk away from situations rather than hurt someone
