Sisterhood Support Group

Join us for a safe space to connect, share, and uplift each other in our monthly Sisterhood Support Group!

SASH and Naz have relaunched our Sisterhood Support Group. This group is specifically aimed at Black women & non-binary folk. Through our organisations' active engagement with community groups, services and service users, we have encountered numerous sexual and reproductive health issues faced disproportionately by Black women & NB folk. The lack of available support, sex education disparities, cultural barriers and desire for community connections all point to the clear need for this support group.

The Sisterhood Support group was created in response to the lack of supportive, non-judgemental and intersectional safe spaces for community members to come together, improve sexual health knowledge, de-stress and address concerns in a culturally sensitive environment.

The group will utilise crafting activities to allow attendees to tap into their creativity and freely express themselves. This will be held monthly on every second Thursday at the Naz office from 6-8 pm. The sessions will have varying themes, crafts and activities as well as the opportunity to connect and uplift.

In celebration of February being LGBT History Month, next week's session theme is: 'Reclaiming & Reimagining Ourselves: A Celebration of Black Queer Identity and Gender Freedom'

The group's aim is to create a nurturing, affirming space for Black women & NB folk —cis, trans, and queer—to explore the histories, identities, and gender expressions that shape who we are today. This session invites the group to reclaim narratives, celebrate Black queer roots, and challenge inherited ideas around gender and identity.
