Inspired Sisters has been providing services in South Manchester since March 2003. It is a multi-cultural learning and resource centre supporting the local community. We help our users overcome the barriers they face through a range of learning opportunities and personal support. The project empowers the users by helping them to build both confidence and encourage social interaction. The project also provides in house training, educational and personal development facilities in a socially sensitive environment with individual support in accessing and acquiring skills, careers guidance and opportunities. We offer individual support and advice in accessing and acquiring career guidance and skills in the courses we offer.


Our approach is to combine education and social interaction for women through a range of opportunities such as:

• Coffee mornings.

• Careers and Jobs Convention.

• Community Gardening Days.

• Discussion forums/Feedback Sessions on projects.

• Awareness days on Health, Beauty, Domestic Violence, Employment, Safety and many of the everyday issues that affect women's lives.

• Days out/ Trips.

• Food Tasting sessions and many other social events.

This encourages women to share cultures, experiences, traditions and histories.
