Description:
Based in East London, Survivors Together is a social group for female survivors of sexual abuse.
Our main purpose is to provide a relaxed environment where woman survivors can socialise and try new activities with people who understand.
Our meetings are held in Plaistow and our activities include writing, poetry, crafts, Tai chi, guest speakers and mindfulness. We don't discuss our histories at the meetings but try new things, share coping techniques and support each other.
Since Covid arrived back in March 2020, we only meet when it is safe to do so. When we can’t be together, we meet via zoom. These meetings have worked well and activities have included art, afternoon tea and even Tai Chi.
We also introduced a private Facebook group for our members to stay in touch. It’s a safe space where we encourage and support each other.
Yvonne (Director) meets people individually before welcoming them to the group (currently via zoom). If you are interested in joining, please visit survivorstogether.co.uk/contact-us/
