Our Circle
Project Overview
Our circle is a support group for women and girls who are pregnant or have a child under the age of five and have had experience of the care system. It provides a safe, welcoming space where participants can feel supported, understood, and free from judgement.
​
The group offers a trauma-informed environment where women can engage positively with their children, strengthen their relationships, and share their experiences with others. It also supports participants to build confidence in their parenting and develop new skills in a nurturing and empowering way. Each session is thoughtfully planned and tailored to meet the specific needs of the women involved, ensuring the support is relevant and meaningful.
