Empowering Her
PROJECT 01
Empower Her Workshops (Proposed)

Empowering migrant women and carers through voice, rights, and resilience.

Project Rationale & Need

Migrant women in the UK — especially those with caring responsibilities — often face multiple barriers such as:

  • Language limitations
  • Legal and immigration uncertainty
  • Cultural isolation
  • Poor housing
  • Limited access to mainstream services

These barriers significantly affect women’s confidence, independence, and wellbeing. According to the Joseph Rowntree Foundation and Women’s Budget Group, migrant women are at higher risk of economic exclusion and underemployment.
