We have staff volunteering as marshals along the route and staff running a tombola staff and the end celebrations.

Lancashire Women still need more marshals – see their website and social media for more details.

Why support Lancashire Women?

Lancashire Women service users across Lancashire in relation to the following:

  • Counselling & mental health support – individual and group sessions (including, currently, simple coffee & chat groups). They are NHS commissioned and if you live in Lancashire and your GP refers you for counselling, Lancashire Women are one of the organisations you could be referred to (men and women of all ages).Employment skills support – helping men and women get back to work and learn new skills (including those who have suffered domestic abuse).
  • Debt, money & benefits assistance.
  • Assistance for those leaving the criminal justice system – rehabilitation, support around getting back to work and homelessness issues.
  • Loneliness or anxiety support.

Lancashire Women support over 8600 individuals each year across Lancashire and offer a safe space for women to seek support. They also help men too with regard to mental health services.

The aftermath of COVID-19 is still being felt today and on top of this, struggles surrounding the increase in the cost of living have left the charity desperately in need of funding to continue to run the vital services.

£3 would ensure a hot drink and snacks are always available for a woman accessing the centre. £5 would fund resources to keep craft sessions available for a woman to attend. £10 would help us answer a call from a women worried about money issues. £20 would pay for a woman to access a therapeutic session.
