Working for Women's Well Being
Follow us to keep up to date with what's happening at WHiST

We take a holistic approach to health around physical and emotional well being acknowledging the fact that physical and emotional health impact on each other. We believe that services should be available to all women regardless of age, ethnic background, disability, sexual orientation or financial considerations. We work with women experiencing a range of physical and mental health problems, but we also place importance on working with women who are well, in order to help them stay that way.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our AGM yesterday as we celebrate WHiST’s 40th year.

It was a chance to look back at the past year and recognise everyone who helps make WHiST what it is our members, volunteers, staff, trustees, funders, partners and supporters.

For 40 years, WHiST has been a place for women in South Tyneside to find support, learn something new and connect with others. Whether you’ve been part of WHiST for years or have only recently joined us, thank you for being part of our story.

Member course Feedback - Nourish and Flourish.

"It's been great to get me interested in cooking again"

Lovely feedback from one of our members. She's shared these photos of granola and tomato sauce she's made using recipes from the course.

A little of what we noticed on today’s mindful walk at WHiST. 🌳

As part of our activities to mark World Mental Health Day, we took time to slow down and notice what was around us, including these lovely trees and the sunlight coming through the leaves.

That was what our walk was all about: taking a break, enjoying some fresh air and noticing things we might usually walk straight past.

Thank you to everyone who joined us.
