OUR WIDE RANGE OF SUPPORT SERVICES
COMMUNITY SUPPORT
Our world becomes an altogether difficult place to live when you are going through the toughest phase of life. We understand that there are occasions when you come across such moments where you become a pessimist and start doubting your inner goodness. This is where Dostiyo Women and Girls Organisation comes to assist with our complete range of support services that suit your specific needs. Whether it is a sensitive situation of domestic abuse, self-care or general health, our volunteers are professionally trained to offer the most valuable support and advice.
EMPLOYMENT TRAINING & ADVICE
Working Progress Project Offers Holistic Support into Work
Northamptonshire based organisations are working together to provide holistic support to people across the county. Commsortia has partnered with the University of Northampton to deliver this £2.6 million Building Better Opportunities (BBO) project, helping people back onto the path into employment. Working Progress offers rounded support to participants, which could vary from confidence building and mentoring, to CV writing and money advice; all of which focuses on the needs of the individual.
PROJECT DETAILS:
Who are our beneficiaries? Anyone who is 19+ and out of work can take part, but we focus on those with additional barriers to work who often fall into these categories: Disabilities, Over 50's, BAME Groups, (Ex-)Offenders, and Carers.
Who is funding the project? The project is part of the Building Better Opportunities (BBO) programme and is funded by the European Social Fund and The National Lottery Community Fund.

BEFRIENDING SCHEME
There are many wellness-related problems that only exist due to loneliness and lack of having good company. Therefore, to deal with this dilemma, we introduced befriending schemes that open the doors for women from all across Northampton so that they can share the commonalities among them and become friends. This practice eventually assists in eliminating distress and promotes mental peacefulness.
PHYSICAL WELLBEING IS EQUALLY SIGNIFICANT
While support and advice are crucial, sports and leisure activities carry equal value for overall wellness. Therefore, we provide various sporting and art facilities at our venue in Northampton. We offer:
Badminton
Bowling
Yoga
Painting
Sewing
Zumba
