Recommendations for women's charity

7 replies

I want to get someone a charity gift for Christmas. Can anyone recommend a charity (or a gift within a larger charity) that particularly works with women, either in the UK or internationally?

I was looking at Refuge, but I specifically want to support a charity that offers support to women based on sex, not gender, and I couldn't find out from their website what their policy on transwomen in domestic violence shelters is.

Any suggestions, please?

Thanks, I'll take a look. Never heard of any of them. Blush but I will start looking them up.

How strange OP!

I am the "charity rep," at work, and have been tasked with finding a charity that specifically support women/ women's causes for us to support in 2022. I was just about to come to this board to ask for suggestions. So far I found:

www.miscarriageassociation.org.uk/

ectopic.org.uk/how-we-can-help

www.jostrust.org.uk/get-support/one-to-one-service

targetovariancancer.org.uk/support-for-you

pandasfoundation.org.uk/

rapecrisis.org.uk/

I'm also looking for more.

Thanks. There's some great charities out there. I think I will go with Nia for Christmas because it's local to us and works in our borough. But there's some brilliant other causes to consider for the future.
