We are incredibly proud to share that Hopscotch Women’s Centre has been awarded a 2026 prize from Ockenden International for our Hopscotch Afghan Refugee Project (HARP) 🎉

Under the unfailing leadership of Isabelle Terrisson, our Head of Programmes, we’ve been recognised as the standout UK project this year.
HARP supports Afghan refugee families through language learning, community building, and confidence workshops, with a special focus on empowering women and mothers.

So far, the project has supported 1,646 people, helping build connections, confidence, and brighter futures within our community.

Thank you to Ockenden International and well done to our incredible team, volunteers, and the women we work alongside every day 💛

Eid Mubarak to all who celebrate.

As Ramadan comes to a close, the trustees and the team at Hopscotch Women Centre wish everyone a peaceful and joyful Eid, filled with reflection, connection, and hope.

We also want to take a moment to acknowledge that this period is not the same for everyone. For many people around the world, especially women, Ramadan and Eid can come with added challenges, whether due to conflict, displacement, inequality, or personal hardship.

Today, we hold space for both celebration and solidarity. May we continue to support, uplift, and stand alongside those who need it most.

Many of the women supported by Hopscotch Women’s Centre are often not reached by mainstream systems.

Violence, insecure housing, poverty, employment barriers, mental health challenges and caring responsibilities are deeply interconnected. When these barriers accumulate and intersect, they can make women invisible.

Hopscotch works with women, not for them, restoring agency, confidence and connection.

Supporting women to move from invisibility to visibility. 💜

At Hopscotch Women’s Centre, we support women to be safe, connected and well-resourced so they can achieve their full potential.

We know that many women face intersecting challenges such as violence, discrimination, poverty, migration barriers and isolation. That is why we provide a safe, welcoming space where women can access support, rebuild confidence and connect with community.

This International Women’s Day, we reaffirm our commitment to ensuring every woman is seen, heard and supported.

Proud to see our Head of Programme Isabelle Terrisson to the conversations at CSW70.

This Sexual Abuse & Sexual Violence Awareness Week, we are highlighting the importance of trauma-informed support.

At Hopscotch Women’s Centre, trauma-informed care means:

• believing survivors
• prioritising safety and dignity
• giving women control over their own choices
• understanding the long-term impact of trauma

Support should never retraumatise. Every woman deserves to be met with compassion, patience and respect.

Happy New Year 2026!
