Run by Yvonne
and Jo-Jo for a number of years, and working closely with the
group WOW (Women on Women)
in Norwich, the line has been a starting-point for women of
all ages and life-experiences, who need someone to talk
to about their hopes and feelings, anxieties and difficulties,
isolation or loneliness.
They may want to talk about their families’ or workmates’
attitudes. Many are married with children, some are still
at school or college, and others don’t know where to meet other
women who may feel the same as them.
Others
come to find out what’s on or where to stay in Norfolk, or to
tell us about events so we can get the word out.
Families of gay women call, and we offer support on parenting
issues. We have a huge network of lesbian-friendly services
which we can put you in touch with, such as legal advice,
counselling, and support and befriending groups.
Some women
keep in touch with us on a regular basis, and it’s always a
privilege to hear the stories of courage, sometimes pain, and
often love and joy that so many women choose to share with us.
If you
would like to work with us, full training will be given. If
anyone has any fundraising ideas, please get in touch! The line
is open Tuesday evenings, 7-9pm, on Norwich (01603) 625822.
We will
also meet with you if you want to go to any WOW
drop-ins for the first time, for extra moral support!
