Waterside Women'S Centre

The Waterside Women's Centre was established in 1994 as a direct response from local women who saw the absence of a safe neutral space for women in the Waterside area of Londonderry /Derry. Our main focus of our work is training and education for women.

We provide many training and educational opportunities for women from the local communities.

We provide information on a range of community and individual issues, with a signposting or "referral on. " system for women who require specialist support.

We support help and encourage other groups wishing to use our facilities.
