supporting AFRICAN & CARIBBEAN
HERITAGE WOMEN AFFECTED BY DOMESTIC & SEXUAL ABUSE
our 10 year anniversary campaign
For 10 years, Sistah Space has been a lifeline for Black women and families of African and Caribbean heritage, offering support, resources, and hope to survivors of domestic abuse.
As we celebrate this milestone, the need for our mission remains urgent. Domestic abuse still affects too many, and your support can help us continue transforming lives. Join us and be part of the journey.
our sistah’s keeper
At Sistah Space, we support women and families affected by domestic abuse whilst also ensuring that cultural factors are not only considered but understood. Through our work we aim to ensure that cultural barriers and biases are removed and that our service users are given equal support from us and any other agency they go to for help. We are experts on the intersectionality of racism and gender based violence and are working to improve the Violence Against Women & Girls sector and end ignorance around the black experience of domestic abuse.
Providing support for the various different types of domestic abuse through advocacy, we at Sistah Space operate a volunteer run support service, food bank and a very unique charity shop in which everything is new or unused.
We also deliver training focusing on cultural competency and best practice derived from our own verified research.
