Smalls for All

Thanks to you, we were able to provide underwear recently to Sheffield Working Women’s Opportunities Project (SWWOP). SWWOP supports women involved in sex work who are experiencing homelessness, substance addiction, period poverty, mental and physical health issues.
The organisation’s Bethan Davies told us, “At SWWOP we know that when a woman’s basic needs are met, when she feels clean, fed and is treated with dignity and respect, she can move away from the fight or flight decision making and make empowered decisions for her own wellbeing and safety. For so many of our women they have no fixed abode, minimal possessions and are constantly sofa surfing. There are very few places they feel safe and are able to have a change of underwear, freshen up, reset and refresh themselves to face the streets again. With the cost-of-living crisis heightening, many of our women are living on the breadline and will have to make difficult decisions between buying food, toiletries or clothes etc. Therefore, helping by supplying these underwear essentials eases financial pressure for our women.”
Thank you for helping us to help them,
Maria. 🩲🩳🙏
