What is it?
Latin American Women in the UK have little access to education and job opportunities. Most women in our community are forced to take jobs with low wages, job insecurity and long hours playing without being able to seek better working conditions.
LAWRS’ mission is to provide tools for growth to empower Latin American women in the UK to pursue personal and social change.
We focus on meeting the needs, both immediate and long term, of women affected by poverty and abuse.
We offer advice, advocacy, information and counselling services in a personalised, confidential and impartial manner. All our services are free and in Spanish and Portuguese.
