Waterside Women's Centre

Waterside Women's Centre Our main focus of our work is training and education for women. We provide many training and educational opportunities for women from the local communities.

The Waterside Women's Centre was established in 1994 as a direct response from local women who saw the absence of a safe neutral space for women in the Waterside area of Londonderry/Derry. We provide information on a range of community and individual issues, with a signposting or "referral on." system for women who require specialist support. We support help and encourage other groups wishing to u

se our facilities. We work in partnership with local training organisations, statutory organisations and network with other women's groups local, regional and cross border

OUR AIMS

- Our aim is to provide a secure space and support for all women, to help pursue their own developments and make decisions about their own lives.

- To empower women to make their own choices by providing and promoting education, training and information in a neutral environment for all women

- To provide free, quality on-site child-care so that women can access education and training opportunities.

- To place the issue of gender equality on the social agenda by encouraging local women to be more involved in social, political and economic decision-making. OFFICE HOURS

We’re looking for toy donations for our crèche and would really appreciate your support.

If you have any good-quality toys your children have outgrown, we’d love to give them a new home where they can be enjoyed again.

We are especially looking for items such as Duplo lego, large magnetic puzzles, games for small children, dolls, and prams. We also need a small table with a few chairs.

Thank you so much for any donations — your support makes a real difference to our little ones
