Overview
what we do
Feathers Futures offer a range of support to women to enable them to create a brighter future.
Founded in 2018 to bridge the gap in providing an immediate safe space, Feathers Futures is unique in its easy-to-access location, instant, supportive haven and the ongoing help it offers women across Great Yarmouth. We aim to be a friendly place for women to come and make friends, socialise, learn new skills and receive support.
Feathers Futures brings women into a caring and understanding group, in a non-judgmental environment. As a result, women can have a voice and express feelings while being heard and understood.
Supported by a team of volunteers and staff, we offer a range of expertise to help women to create a brighter future. Over the years, we have created enjoyable small groups, including drop-in sessions, counselling, domestic abuse tool kit, Feathers Friends, classes and groups, a book club and art sessions.
Through our unique blend of services, Feathers Futures are proud to have helped create a better future for hundreds of women each year.
“I find that everyone is very inclusive to everyone who comes to Feathers and to who works here. They are extremely good at not judging people who they are or what struggles they may have. For example, I am on the autism spectrum and I don’t get treated differently I’m just given extra support if I need it.”
