What
More Than A Woman is a girls-only youth group promoting life skills, well-being and female empowerment. We help North Kensington girls, who were affected by Grenfell, transition into the next stage of their lives in a positive way. This project combines learning and fun and is aimed at 13–15-year-old girls from the local area. This project helps deliver on the Grenfell Project Fund key outcome of increasing well-being for children, young people or adults. “I feel that I can speak honestly about the things I’m going through in my life. I don’t feel embarrassed and I get great advice from the workers and the other girls." — Maria Through weekly group work sessions and one-to-one interventions, we support vulnerable young women to reach their full potential. Session themes include: - Team-building and personal development - Interpersonal skills and self-image - Healthy lifestyles and volunteering - Relationships and friendships - Life-skills and well-being Each girl creates a Personal Development Plan, which includes employment, training and other services signposting.Organiser
