Feel Good Friday @ Women’s Turnaround

Each Friday Turnaround has a range of activities under the ‘feel good Friday’ banner. During August some of the women who had recently completed The Freedom project received a makeover from a professional makeup artist which left them feeling fab (just in time for the weekend).

What is The Freedom Project? Facilitator Tina Pomford tells us:

“It is a 12 week programme which covers different types of abuse: physical, emotional, financial and also the associated warning signs. In the group we also discuss domestic abuse and the effects of this on children and other family members. A few of the sessions I facilitate are ‘the bully’, ‘the headworker’ and ‘the persuader’. The women who attend are all at different stages, some have been abused in past, some are still in the relationship, some are living in hostels and we also have a range of age groups

I have facilitated this group for approximately 5 years. I can honestly say I am passionate about it and love to see the women transforming their lives (when the time is right for them).”
