Women's Health Matters
@whmleeds.bsky.social
Our Mission: Women's Health Matters exists to support women and girls to live safe and healthy lives. We achieve this by providing a holistic, trauma-informed service for women and girls who are socially, economically, or politically marginalised.
Today is Day 1 of #16DaysOfAction - a global moment to come together against gender-based violence and to stand beside every woman who deserves safety, dignity, and peace.
Our campaign was created with women from our Breathe Free project and third-year Visual Communications students at @leedsartsuni
