ABOUT SISTERWOOD

Supporting young women in a nurturing community to flourish and thrive

For those who identify as female aged 12-16, SisterWood offers a programme where they will learn skills they can draw on to keep themselves well.

The focus is on mental wellbeing in a supportive framework and a beautiful woodland. Away from screens, passing on practices which help to connect to the full potential of the young person’s unique gifts. SisterWood is a registered charity working with young people in Devon.
