More than 50 women have completed empowerment workshops co-designed by survivors of domestic abuse to protect them from becoming future victims. 

Police and Crime Commissioner Nicolle Ndiweni-Roberts provided £5k from her Safer and Stronger Communities Fund to Derby-based non-profit organisation Community One for its Empower Her project. 

The programme was designed to address violence against women and girls (VAWG) in Black and Asian communities, raising awareness and building resilience among young women aged 12-21 through a series of eight peer-led and culturally sensitive workshops. 

It culminated in a large-scale community event attended by more than 200 women, community leaders, families and statutory services, creating a platform for intergenerational dialogue around violence against women and girls (VAWG). 

The project has also involved the development of a Community Ambassador network, training women as leaders to support their peers and challenge harmful cultural norms.  

Twelve ambassadors are already training and six are actively delivering support.  

Prior to the workshop launching, awareness of signs of abuse among the cohort was 32%, which increased to 78% following delivery. Additionally, confidence rose from 28% pre-workshop to 72%.
