What we’re about
Welcome Supporters of Women in Manchester and beyond!
Welcome to our community – a sanctuary where we come together to uplift, empower, and thrive!
We defeat loneliness and fear, so women can thrive.
We provide support, guidance and opportunities to connect, build self esteem, and learn new skills in a safe and supportive space.
Here, women can go from surviving to thriving, and reach their full potential.
Join us, and let's thrive together!
The purpose of this group is to join empowered women interested in empowering other women. We also hold mixed-gender events periodically, and welcome Empowering Men at these events. Learn more about us here: www.womenempoweredmcr.org.
Majority of successful women have made it through many obstacles to become successful. It is not easy to reach the top and many of us have received help and support from other empowered women. Our goal is to put our minds, energy, and love together and support women. This is a safe and supportive space for women. Please join us! Let's support each other! 😊
