What Are We?

Peterborough Women's Centre is an organisation based in the UK, run by women for women. Since 1988, the Centre has been open in Peterborough and continues to grow and change as does Peterborough and the women who use the services available within the city. The Women's Centre is the only organisation providing a range of intergrated services, citywide.

This web site is intended to inform those interested what we currently have on offer and possible plans for the future. We are always willing to change and develop our services and to look for others to add to what we do.

PWC is for women and about women. We always welcome those that wish to volunteer for us and generally help out. We wish to keep our confidential, non-judgemental and supportive role in order to help as many as possible.

We have big plans for the future. We recently moved into a larger premises affording more scope for the events and activities we offer. This means we can now increase our range of services for women, thus offering more help, advice and space for women and women's organisations.
