A few years ago, a small group of women began meeting in a borrowed community room — not to fix anything, but simply to listen to one another. No agenda, no advice, no judgement. Word spread quietly, the way these things do, and more women came. Some to talk, some just to sit in the warmth of company.
Today, Sistershare is still powered by that same gentle idea: that being truly heard can change how a hard week feels. We’re entirely voluntary, led by women with lived experience, and open to every woman aged 18 and over — whoever you are, whatever you’re carrying.
We hold space and listen. We don't diagnose, advise, or try to 'solve' you.
What's shared in the circle stays in the circle. Safeguarding is taken seriously.
No hierarchy, no experts on a pedestal — just women supporting women, side by side.
All backgrounds, all stories, all welcome. Free to attend, with no referral needed.
Peer-led means our circles are guided by women with real, lived experience — not clinicians, not caseworkers. It keeps things human, equal, and free of the power imbalance that can make asking for help feel hard. You’re never a ‘patient’ here. You’re a person, among people who get it.
Started Sistershare after finding how much one honest, listening conversation could change.
Makes sure every circle stays a safe, confidential and welcoming place for everyone.
Greets every woman at the door with a warm welcome — and an even warmer cuppa.
