Womens Health Matters (WHM) is an independent voluntary organisation run by women for women.
We aim to work with women across Leeds, so that together they can take control of their lives and their health.
WHM believes it is essential to listen to the concerns of women and recognises that women are experts about their own health.
We take a holistic approach to health and believe it concerns all aspects of well being.
We prioritise work with women in disadvantaged areas in the city and work with groups of women who experience additional disadvantage because of age, race, class, disability or sexual orientation.
We aim to make our service accessible and to support women to access services.
WHM uses Community Development methods and we believe that working in this way improves the health and well being of women and their families and contributes to reducing inequalities.
