What we do
Service users have opportunities to learn and practice skills such as sewing and craft, gardening and healthy cooking. As well as life skills we run peer mentoring programmes that lead to volunteering opportunities and eventually employment.
It also provides a place to find holistic one-to-one support for issues from debt and domestic violence to homelessness and mental health. There are also hot desks for partners to work from, along with meeting spaces meaning that service users are able to meet their Wellbeing Coach, Probation Officer, Assistant Psychologist and other professionals all in one place.
Northampton Women's Centre
We create a safe place where women engage in a variety of activities, support groups and have access to professional support in one place.

Northampton Women's Centre
C2C was somewhere that I could go where men could not abuse or hurt me in any way. It became my safe place.
Healthy Cooking on a Budget
Women can learn how to make healthy meals using simple recipes they can cook again at home. Where possible, we use seasonal vegetables and fruit grown in our allotment to make the dishes even tastier.
Tuesdays 12pm - 2pm
