We are committed to collaborative working as a means of building the resilience of the Women’s Sector.
Women’s Regional Consortium
We work with six other leading women’s organisations in the Women’s Regional Consortium to give a real voice to women in disadvantaged urban and rural areas. Our partners are Training for Women Network (TWN), Women’s Support Network (WSN), Northern Ireland Rural Women’s Network (NIRWN), WOMEN’STEC, Women’s Centre Derry (WCD) and Foyle Women’s Information Network (FWIN).
