Women's Development Progamme
The aim of the programme is to support women from all backgrounds and ages, with particular focus on engaging women who are not in paid employment or education at the moment. Workshops and group sessions are dedicated and designed to meet women’s needs and explore opportunities for progressing into employment and/ or further education. Rethinking and reshaping personal abilities and peer to peer education are core values of the programme with women being supported with group and individual goal setting.Each year women are invited to have their input into the programme content so it varies from year to year depending on what women are looking for in the programme.

Women's Progamme
Trim Family resource Centre is like a family like my own family where I can share my problems and
they every time have solutions. The programme was really good. It was fun, entertaining and I
learned a lot. All involved were very caring and helpful.
Love the women’s programme, tutors were great. I have learned lots of new things that will help me
on a daily basis and made wonderful friends. Sad it’s over.
The women’s development group was a fantastic support to me personally. Creating an inspiring
environment to explore diverse activities and topics. It helped me to grow in confidence and develop
my skills to start up my own business and follow my dreams. Thank you to all involved in the
programme, my new friends, facilitators and especially the staff at the Resource Centre who put on
programmes like these and many more to help their communities and put the light back into our
lives.
