"I learnt I was born with the skills to do anything. It's really given me strength to go on."
Bramber graduate
We support women who’ve experienced abuse, exploitation or displacement with the confidence, skills and knowledge for a positive future.
Four key ingredients: Baking, wellbeing support, transferable life skills and ongoing support combine creating an environment for women to heal, feel valued, gain confidence, build skills and knowledge for the future and thrive in a loving community. Our programme is safe and trauma-informed, built around the needs expressed by the women we support and those supporting them.
The Road To Bramber
1. It starts with injustice
Exploited, fleeing war, escaping domestic abuse. Every woman has a unique story to tell, often living with unimaginable trauma, often overlooked, unable to overcome the challenges they face as a result.
2. Endless barriers
Women who’ve experienced violence, exploitation or displacement describe feeling isolated, lacking purpose, stripped of dignity and value. Having lived through trauma and injustice, their mental health and wellbeing are severely affected and they’re often ill-equipped with the confidence or skills to move forward. Their future can seem limited.
3. Tailored support
We welcome women into a safe, trauma-informed environment. A space for women to build community, identify unique strengths and abilities, create goals and build a person-centred plan for a bright future. Through our programmes, women build confidence, taking ownership of their journey with the ability and support to overcome challenges.
4. The future begins
Women leave our programme surrounded by a loving community, building life-long friendships, with access to 121 befriending & mentoring, preparing for voluntary work or paid employment. They’re empowered with the tools they need to break the cycle of poverty, violence and disadvantage - living a healthy, meaningful life.
