Community outreach

  • Education

    We are keen to work with schools, colleges and Universities to open up the conversation around sexual consent. This can be led through movement &/or self defence workshops on a person centred methodolog. Themes will be navigated sensitively and Safeguarding provisions led by led by AD Laura Kenyon & a psychotherapist to creatives.

  • Workshops

    Open to all ages & backgrounds, WomanEwer creates a safe space to empower participants to tell their stories via movement, voice &/or self-defence. They are inclusive workshops for female survivors and LGBTQIA+ groups in community centres, & shelters. Safeguarding provisions are supported by a psychotherapist and RASASC.

  • Installation

    Paintings, collages, ceramics and hanging mobiles by Melanie Kenyon with soundscapes & digital forms by Laura Kenyon. The exhibition can exist on its own and can also be a setting for a 30min live performance. This multi sensory experience leaves traces & gives new meaning to a familiar space whilst challenging the audience to create their own narrative.
