What to expect from Support Spaces

Kairos Women+ strives to create safe, welcoming spaces designed for all women+ (inclusive of trans women and non-binary people.) To get involved in our Support Spaces, get in touch via our contact page and a member of staff will be in touch to give you more information. You will have access to staff support while you’re part of our Support Spaces to help you access additional support from other services or simply as a listening ear! 

Take a look below at what we offer at the moment.

Beautiful Women

Beautiful Women, Beautiful Me is our 12-session Personal Development Programme, developed at Women’s Community Matters in Cumbria. In Beautiful Women (Part 1) we explore the world and our place in it with topics such as difference, identity, resilience and belonging in safe, trusting, relaxed group of 8-10 women+. In Beautiful Me (Part 2) we delve a little deeper to explore our own thoughts, feelings and behaviours with topics such as emotion, communication, relationships and perceptions

The sessions run weekly over 6-weeks for 2-hours and are delivered by an experienced group facilitator. The first two sessions give us time to get to know one another through gentle activities that help us think about our place in the world. This is the perfect course for any woman+. If you’re worried about coming to a new space, you’re not alone. We will support you every step of the way and this course is designed with that very feeling in mind.

Accessibility and Inclusivity

If you have any accessibility needs such as difficulties reading or writing or a disability, please get in touch so we can make changes to help you access the course. Part 1 has little reading and writing and we use visual activities and conversation. We aim to meet the needs of different learners with a variety of activities. If you need support with literacy, we can provide a buddy to support you throughout the course without this being obvious to other participants.

Beautiful Women was fun, interesting and emotional. My confidence has improved and I’m thinking about others more. I’ve learnt to smile because it cheers people up and I’m talking more about my feelings

Wellness Group

Our peer-support Wellness Group is a welcoming and safe space for all women+ who are looking to explore ways of managing their mental illness or mental health condition. It’s a space where we can get together to support each other, share our experiences and offer each other wellbeing activities to support positive mental health. 

This group runs in 8-session blocks from our home in Paisley. Check our What’s On for the full schedule. 

Kairos has made me feel wanted for the first time in a long time.

Disability Campaigning Group

Do you have a long term condition or disability? Maybe you’re autistic? Then this group is for you! A safe, relaxed monthly group to connect with other women+ and make change together! In person with an option to connect via Zoom.
