Since September 2021, HealthProm has been supporting Afghan women refugees in London. More specifically, we provide English language classes and mental health support to help facilitate their integration into British society, and overcome some of the negative psychological effects associated with becoming a refugee. To mark International Women’s Day, we organised an event for our beneficiaries talks on female empowerment, group discussions and was an opportunity to meet new women and connect with each other further outside of class. The day was a huge success, with around 35 Afghan refugee women attending, and great feedback received on the day all-round.
