Providing a platform for new projects
Restore
The Restore Project provides non-judgemental unconditional support to women working within the sex industry in Derby and Derbyshire. Using a chaplaincy-style approach, we walk alongside women, offering a listening ear, a helping hand and practical support when requested.
Our aim is to offer friendship and support to women in a non-judgemental and non-discriminatory way, whilst nurturing self-worth and giving help to access the appropriate services if necessary. Our van offers women a safe space to retreat during their working hours and we provide them with ‘beauty bags’ to help maintain personal hygiene.
We also help with follow-up work to help women access services which help them move away from negative life patterns.
Rebuild
Support for those who have been trafficked
In 2018, working in partnership with the Derby and Derbyshire Modern Day Slavery Partnership we started a new project ‘Rebuild’ to offer practical help in areas such as benefit support, housing support, accessing physical and emotional support to people who have been trafficked, this has now become a sustainable charity in its own right.
