Mission Statement
Run by women for women, Womankind is dedicated to helping women living in Bristol and the surrounding area to improve their mental health and wellbeing, enabling them to have a better quality of life.
About This Cause
Womankind has been helping women living in Bristol and the surrounding area to improve their mental health and well-being for 36 years, enabling them to have a better quality of life. We aim to reach the most vulnerable groups living in the most deprived local areas, particularly disadvantaged women with little or no access to community mental health support services. Our face-to-face projects include a Safer Women’s Project supporting refugees, asylum seekers and trafficked women who have experienced trauma, abuse and exploitation with specialist trauma counselling (with interpreters); specialist sexual and/or domestic violence counselling for women and for young women; a dedicated service for Deaf and hard of hearing women with a BSL signing counsellor; outreach therapy in deprived areas; group therapy and befriending. Our telephone and webchat helpline handles over 6,000 calls and emails a year; over 40% of the callers have suffered sexual abuse/assault, rape, or domestic abuse.
