Mission Statement
We’re HERSANA. Since 2016, we’ve been designing safe spaces for Black women and girls affected by or at risk of experiencing gender-based violence across England and Wales. To overcome the physical, emotional, financial and logistical impacts of abuse and rebuild their lives. Whatever form gender-based violence comes in, from rape and female genital mutilation to relationships based on psychological or financial control, we work to eradicate it. But we know escaping violence and abuse can be the hardest thing to ever do. That’s why it's so important we’re creating safe spaces designed by Black femmes, built for Black femmes and with Black femmes in mind and at the forefront. We find creative, audacious and innovative ways to support thousands of Black women and girls each year.
About This Cause
HERSANA is a not-for-profit organisation that works to eradicate all forms of gender-based violence targeted at Black femmes. We lead with an informed understanding of the complexities of violence and abuse, as well as the challenges associated with escaping those conditions. Our safe spaces are designed by Black femmes, built for Black femmes with Black femmes in mind and at the forefront. All of our services and projects aim to create safe spaces for and centre Black femme survivors in every narrative – and with you in mind, we have designed a range of services that truly reflect our core values. We provide holistic therapy, independent advocacy, outreach initiatives, training and development.
