The Women's Centre offer a range of services and opportunities that help us to meet our aim to 'Support, Encourage and Enable' all women to get the best out of life for themselves and their families.

We offer a wide range of courses which we provide in a safe, supportive and friendly environment.

These include:

• Personal Development courses to enhance your skills for life & work and build your self-esteem
• Courses for fun to explore your creative side whilst increasing your confidence
• Courses aimed at improving your home and family life
• Courses for learning and accredited courses which may lead to you taking further recognised qualifications

As with all our services, we aim to provide training opportunities which are relevant and accessible to all women, to improve lifestyles for continued well-being and individual development.

We work closely with other organisations to run courses at venues local to you, throughout East Lancashire and Blackburn with Darwen.

We offer a crèche for pre-school age children on some courses and additional support for you if you feel you want it.
