The Harlow Women's Network was an informal group of women's organisations and individual women, campaigning on issues important to women, attending conferences and celebrating International Women's Day each year. It became an incorporated charity in 2001 and from 2001 - 2004 operated a successful Women's Resource Centre offering a wide range of activities and opportunities to women. Since the funding was not renewed, we closed the centre and continued with a reduced number of activities run by volunteers. We are now steadily growing and our aim is to open a new centre in the future.
Harlow Women's Network offers support to all women in the locality through the provision of a range of activities, advice, education and training with a view to strengthening self-esteem, providing new skills and promoting self-help. The Network encourages women to deal with social issues and make positive choices to enhance their quality of life and take a full and active role in community life.
