Womenzone

INCLUDING WOMEN! Is a network organisation, which works to link groups, which have women members (or among their members). The aim is to look at issues that especially affect women and their families and to try to bring groups together to make improvements. Domestic violence is one such issue, and Including Women! Are creating a Sparkbrook Forum to look at how the issue can be tackled and how groups can work collectively on this.
