We’re Brighton Women’s Centre and we’ve been supporting self-identifying women in Sussex for 50 years. We help women from all backgrounds, facing all kinds of issues, to live happier lives.

We are run for women by women, we support those with chronic conditions, those who have faced abuse, trauma, poverty, homelessness, or are in contact with the criminal justice system.

BWC is based in Brighton city centre, in one of the top 10% areas of deprivation in the UK (IMD, 2019), and we currently have services across Sussex from Crawley to Worthing, Eastbourne, Hastings, and since 2021 we have stretched into Kent.

Last year, we helped 868 women and 14 children through one or more of our services – 23% more women than the previous year.
