๐Ÿฝ๏ธIntroducing Meat Free Fridays!๐Ÿฅ—

Weโ€™re encouraging our community to try swapping just one meal for a meat-free option each Friday. Itโ€™s a small, manageable change that can help reduce the environmental impact of our foodโ€”and introduce us to some tasty new meals along the way!

Every Friday, weโ€™ll share simple recipes, affordable ingredients, food-saving tips and bite-sized climate information to help you get involved ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒ

Why not give it a go and follow along each Friday?

Our Weekly Recaps are back! ๐Ÿ’šโœจ

Itโ€™s been a busy week across our Climate Conscious Communities ๐ŸŒฑ

At Windsor Women's Centre, our Gardening Group got stuck back into the raised beds, harvesting some home-grown produce, while the Repair Cafรฉ explored fast fashion, repair culture and creative ways to reuse leftover fabrics and wool. ๐Ÿชดโ™ป๏ธ

Over at Chrysalis Women's Centre, the Pickle & Preserve group harvested tomatoes from the polytunnel to pickle โ€” even turning the leftovers into tomato soup! ๐Ÿ…๐Ÿฅซ Our new Sewing Group also got underway, with a new group of women learning the basics of using a sewing machine. ๐Ÿงต๐Ÿชก

This week, we have commenced our 3rd and 4th groups of Own My Life. ๐Ÿ’œ

Own My Life is a 12-week course designed for women who have been subjected to domestic abuse. The course supports women to understand what has happened to them, rebuild their confidence and develop the knowledge and tools to take back ownership of their lives.

And thereโ€™s even more to celebrateโ€ฆ ๐ŸŒฑ

Next week, we will be starting our Inspired to Own My Life pilot programme with young girls. We are incredibly proud and feel truly privileged to be delivering this programme and creating a space where young women can explore healthy relationships, recognise abuse and build confidence and resilience.

To support the delivery of these programmes, weโ€™ve also created a new dedicated room here at Footprints. ๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธโœจ

We wanted the space to feel calm, welcoming and safe, so weโ€™ve incorporated different lighting, cosy touches and a warm, comfortable environment a space designed with the women and girls who will use it in mind.

Weโ€™re so excited about whatโ€™s ahead and incredibly proud of the work taking place at Footprints. ๐Ÿ’œ

Hereโ€™s to creating spaces where women and girls feel safe, heard and supported.
