Our Vision:

We are working for the empowerment and dignity of refugee and asylum-seeking women.
We are working for a future where their voices are heard, where they can improve their self-esteem and self-confidence.

Our Mission:

RWoB is the only multi-ethnic, multi-faith organisation which specifically targets the needs of refugee women in Bristol.

We are directly governed by women of the refugee and asylum-seeking community.

We provide services to disenfranchised groups over and above the generic category of ‘refugee’, and routinely reach cohorts of women that other service-providers overlook or are unable to access.

What we value the most

Empowerment

To create an environment of role modelling and opportunities to grow.

Safety

Provide welcoming, supportive, and accessible spaces for all.

Sharing

We use asset-based approaches where everyone contributes and learns new skills.

User-directed

All our trustees and members have lived experience and are best placed to design and direct culturally appropriate services.

Respect

To promote a diversity of cultures, faiths, and views.

Confidentiality

Confidential services ensuring everyone’s details are protected in line with General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR).
