Save the Woman

Save the Woman "To educate a woman is to educate a nation"
Save The Woman is led organisation in England and Wales. It expanded to Middlesbrough in 2015.

Save the Woman's priority is to support in a way that is beneficial to the & at large. Save The Woman started as the brainchild of Olalekan Odedeyi, as a result of his involvement in Millennium Development Advocacy training while serving as a member of National Youth Service Corps. Olalekan developed an interest in MDG Goal 3, which seeks to promote gender equality

and empower women. He established contact with the Welfare Department within the Nigerian prisons service to conduct a thorough needs assessment. It was revealed that being put in prison in Nigeria is like a bomb exploding in the women’s lives. The social consequences for these women mean that on release they are not welcome in society, leaving them with nowhere to go, no employment, no relationships and no skills to move forward. This causes them to re-offend meaning the women often never leave prison permanently, because once they’re in the system, there are no rehabilitation programmes and they become trapped in a vicious cycle. We decided to build the women’s work skills through piloting the production of chalk in prisons. In November 2018, Save The Woman supported the launch of the African and African Caribbean Network at Teesside University. The theme of the launch event was African Renaissance. The keynote address was given by IDPAD Coalition UK. Save The Woman based in Middlesbrough is part of the Coalition of African people and African-led organisations that came together to mark and raise awareness about the UN International Decade for People of African Descent (IDPAD) 2015 – 2024. The Decade has 3 pillars: Recognition, Justice and Development. It is under the Justice pillar that the concerns of over-representation of Black African & African-Caribbean children in the care system reached Save the Woman’s attention. Save The Woman will use the UN International Decade for People of African Descent as a catalyst to drive positive change in the lives of women and children affected by the prison system.

At Save the Woman, we believe that effective parenting is not learnt by osmosis—it is a skill that can be nurtured, developed, and strengthened. We share the community's belief that "it takes a village to raise a child." For many African families living away from their extended family networks, parenting can feel isolating and challenging. This work aims to rebuild that sense of community by providing knowledge, support, and practical tools.

We welcome partnerships and sponsorship from organisations, businesses, community groups, and individual philanthropists, both locally and nationally.

Your support will help Save the Woman continue delivering vital parenting programmes, create safe and nurturing environments for children, strengthen families, and contribute to reducing the number of children entering care, where they may be at greater risk of experiencing significant abuse and harm.

Together, we can empower parents, strengthen families, and build healthier, safer communities for future generations.
