Together Women will open the doors to its new Leeds centre on Tuesday 10 March, combining an open day with an International Women’s Day celebration.
The event offers an opportunity for partners, practitioners and community organisations to visit the new space, connect with colleagues, and reflect on the role of women-centred support in Leeds.
Together Women works with women facing multiple disadvantages, including those impacted by the criminal justice system, trauma, poverty and social exclusion. A dedicated, welcoming centre is a key part of delivering that support safely and effectively.
This open day marks an important step for the organisation and for partners working across the VCSE, public health and community safety sectors.

The opening of a new dedicated space strengthens local infrastructure and creates additional opportunities for partnership working across Leeds.
For organisations working in criminal justice, mental health, migrant support, domestic abuse, homelessness or wider inclusion services, this open day offers a chance to:
