SAWN, Support and Action for Women’s Network, works predominantly with Black African women and families, who are first generation immigrants in the UK. These families are a minority within the BAME community, especially in Oldham. Many of whom are living with poor mental health and physical health.
We are very proud to provide a space for women to be brave and vulnerable. Women tell us that SAWN is a safe space where they are not judged and they no longer have to suffer in silence.
Our services have grown and developed and we are now able to offer a variety of opportunities, support groups and services to help our sisters flourish.
