Case Study
Sarah, like many of us, has experienced the devastating impact of grief and mental health struggles. When Sarah reached out to the Shama Women’s Centre for bereavement counselling and help with her anxiety levels, she felt fragile and low in mood.
But with the support of the Shama Women’s Centre counsellor, Sarah was able to find a safe and empathetic space to work through her challenges. The counsellor patiently helped Sarah to understand her anxiety and taught her techniques to cope with the stress.
Thanks to the support she received at Shama, Sarah has become more resilient in the face of life’s challenges and is better equipped to handle emerging times of stress. She now feels empowered to cope with her anxiety and has gained a better understanding of how stress was impacting her life.
But Sarah’s story is just one of many. The Shama Women’s Centre supports hundreds of women like Sarah every year who are facing their own personal struggles. By becoming a sponsor, you can help support these women to access the vital services they need to rebuild their lives and find a path forward. Together, we can make a real difference in the lives of women in our community.
The opportunity can be entirely bespoke to your business, dependent on your values and aims. However, whichever opportunity you choose, we will keep you informed at all times, to ensure you know where you support is making a difference. We want you to personally appreciate the impact of your generosity, and our team will endeavour to share the progress and milestones along the way.
