Guidelines
We are a women only project, providing a wide range
of support groups.
Our Project does NOT provide
any individual counselling.
Women who attend our Centre
are welcome to access all of our activities. We are
developing an exit strategy which will enable women
to move on into other services locally and city
wide. We do
recognise that individual needs vary.
We do not provide
transport or reimburse travel expenses.
It is important when
referring clients to ensure they are well enough to
cope within a Group and are likely to attend.
