What we do
Funded by NHS England

Milton Keynes Women's centre
What we offer
At our Women’s centre we offer a judgement free zone to connect the women of Milton Keynes to support that is personal to them and their situations. MK Womens centre supports those involved or at risk of being involved in the Criminal Justice System by inspiring them to take personal responsibility for their behaviour, in order to reduce re-offending.
We offer a safe space where women can come and talk to one of our Wellbeing Navigators who can help to guide them in the direction of support needed.
At the centre we provide 1 to 1 holistic support for women by women. We also work closely with other local services to ensure that all our service users support needs are met. This support can be for anything from Domestic violence, mental health, homelessness, employability to finance.
We offer a full programme of workshops at the centre such as budgeting, goal setting, mindset, motivation, mental health and wellbeing. As well as a range of activities for the women of MK such as support groups, creative activities and group sessions where women can come and meet other like-minded women.

Open Monday to Friday from 10-2pm for drop-in and from 9-4 for professionals and booked appointments.
