⭐️Donation no.2️⃣3️⃣7️⃣ of £500⭐️
This week we have been delighted to help Sheffield Working Women’s Opportunities Project Swwop Ltd an organisation that provides intensive support to anyone involved in s*x work in and around Sheffield.
The work they do is fabulous, offering women a range of invaluable support through weekday drop ins and an evening outreach van. They have a dedicated housing link worker, a substance use worker, access to a GP, provide food parcels, essential toiletries, condoms and offer STI testing. They are making a difference to very vulnerable women, helping them to look after themselves and make informed choices about their lives.
This year they are in the process of creating a makeup station for the women to enjoy whilst using the drop-in space. Their aim is for this to be an important part of what they offer. As our member who works at SWWOP explained, it’s not just about makeup itself, but about confidence and self-expression. For many women, having access to the makeup and a supportive space to use it can also help them feel more like themselves and boost self-esteem. It’s also a really effective way of encouraging engagement and conversation, helping the women feel welcome and comfortable in the space.
Our £500 donation will go towards materials and resources to keep the makeup station stocked and accessible to all. We are pleased to be able to help SWWOP get this project up and running and hope it helps more women come to them to access the wonderful support and advice they have on offer.
