WHISE Groups
Sometimes women prefer to meet with others in a group setting to discuss their experiences and needs. WHISE provides support to women who are wanting to set up and run their own group as well as supporting women to join existing groups.
Self help groups and support groups encourage women who may share a common concern or circumstance (such as a health issue, interest or come from a similar background) to meet in a safe and supportive environment. These groups provide women with the opportunity to have their voices heard, support each other, meet new friends and have a sense of belonging.
