Organisation: nia – Huggett Women’s Centre

Website: www.niaendingviolence.org.uk/

nia provides a wide range of services for women and children who have experienced sexual and domestic violence.

We’re thrilled to be developing an exciting new collaboration with Disablement Association Barking and Dagenham (DABD) and Barking and Dagenham Council for Voluntary Services (B&DCVS), working together to open a new women’s centre in Dagenham.

Together we will develop the Huggett Women’s Centre, a women only-service provided by women, providing a range of services for all women and girls aged 11 and above, with a focus on those affected by sexual and domestic violence.

The centre will provide a programme of rolling group work support, workshops, drop-in sessions, training for professionals and community groups and volunteering opportunities. We will develop and provide a new model of wrap-around woman-centred support to women and girls who have experienced any form of sexual or domestic violence based on a holistic integrated service with a group work methodology provided from a feminist perspective.
