Asian Women - School of Participation
School of Participation, Asian women
We have recently completed an extended School of Participation with a group of Asian Women in Salford.
The School of Participation benefited the women in a number of ways. It provided new opportunities and enabled them to:
Meet other Asian women from their area
Share and learn with the group
Reflect on their problems
Develop ideas about how to change things
Look for solutions together
Build confidence
Gain new skills
Find out information about how things work in the UK and how to particpate in community life
Work as a team to plan actions to improve personal and community life.
Now that the School has finished the women have formed a group called Asha. They are now running a drop-in for other women in the area. Please see the flyer for further information.
The group have now found a more permanent venue to meet and are undertaking various training opportunities, e.g. ESOL class and childcare courses.
The women recently had a party to celebrate their achievements.
