Chorley Women’s Centre

For over 40 years Chorley Women's Centre has been supporting and helping women to find solutions to their problems, so they can feel empowered to help themselves. We promote the mental health and wellbeing of all women in Chorley, South Ribble and surrounding areas.

We are an independent organisation run by women for women and are dedicated to supporting women of all ages regardless of their circumstances.

Our staff and volunteers are warm, friendly, approachable and fully trained in supportive listening. They can provide information on many topics.

The centre has numerous weekly, monthly and evening activities. We offer a variety of informal courses, peer support groups and crafting activities, as well as relaxation, yoga and positive journalling.
