Amazing Experience

Hi my name is Sajida Karim, I am partially Blind and therefore I hardly leave my house.

The Women’s International Event was the first ever event I attended after 2yrs of isolation from covid.

This event was amazing and I felt like I was in heaven. Thank you to the beautiful and lovely Organisers who came up with this event.

Hope to get out more and get more involved in the community events.

Wonderful Session
Heya Kathleen I had a wonderful session with you as always, I always look forward to coming. I just wanted to say thank you for letting me open up. I find it really difficult as there is just so much I’m going through, so much that has happened to me and you honestly make me feel much better when I know I can speak it out. You’ve gained me to have a lot of confidence as well made me feel that there are people out there who are listening to me and who care for me. It’s just so hard like being alone with my child not having a lot of support but you honestly, make me feel I can do it so really again thank you ❤❤❤

Thank You! Thank You!
I am BZL from Cameroon. I got to know about the Women Empowerment Network from the very awesome Kathleen Harris at the BLACK HISTORY MONTH Celebration in Leicester. What marvelled me about Kathleen was her confidence and the warmth in her voice while she encouraged me on how to handle my little business. I was a stranger yet she mentored me instantly with so much love. Thank you. She had this reassuring smile that told me I was at the right place. What an amazing woman! After listening to her presentation, I realised my/ our lives will be a lot better if we can love ourselves, give those in need extra hands, mentor those who need mentoring and above all never give up on ourselves or on others. A shout out to the founders of WEN. The world will definitely be a better place with women like you all. I can't wait to become a member and have a rebirth. Thank you , Thank You!....
