JOY for Women is a welcoming and inclusive wellbeing group for women and female-identifying individuals in Worcestershire. Our service is designed to help women build confidence, develop new skills, and make informed decisions about their future.
We support women from all backgrounds, abilities, and stages of life. Each participant receives a tailored journey, guided by a named key worker, to help them:
- Learn new skills
- Access advice and specialist services
- Join courses and training
- Develop friendships and a support network
- Build independence and emotional resilience
- Make informed decisions for the future
- Raise aspirations and achieve personal goals
Our weekly timetable includes activities such as coffee drop-ins, yoga, craft sessions, and holiday events like group picnics and outings (some child-friendly). We also offer emotional resilience courses, 1-to-1 or group coaching, and access to visiting professionals and agencies during JOY days. After crisis support and signposting to specialist agencies is available.
JOY is a safe space where women can belong, grow, and feel empowered.
Important: We are not currently able to take new referrals for The JOY project due to insecure funding from December 2025. Please check this page for updates if circumstances change.
