About Brighton Women’s Centre

Brighton Women’s Centre (BWC) has been supporting women in Brighton and Hove for over 35 years. BWC’s aims are to empower women and promote independence in a safe, women-only space. The services we offer include counselling, groupwork, open access drop ins, holistic therapies, volunteer training and self development courses.

We provide an Ofsted registered pre-school alongside our services in recognition of the importance of childcare.

We are committed to supporting and empowering vulnerable and disadvantaged women in the community.

We welcome all women, regardless of ethnicity, sexuality, age or religion.

Staff

BWC employs 10 members of staff: Director, Counselling Services Manager, Drop-In Services Manager, Inspire Project Co-ordinator, Inspire Caseworkers, Pre-School Manager, Deputy Pre-School Manager, Pre-School Support Worker and Counselling Group Facilitator.

Volunteers

The staff are supported by a team of invaluable volunteers who are involved in every level of the organisation and in all services. Volunteers come from all sections of the community and with a commitment to support other women.

Opportunities are available to women who have had time out of work and looking for work experience; wish to develop their professional skill base; want to give something back and are deeply committed to empowering women.

BWC offer a comprehensive training programme for volunteers.
