OUR PROJECT
The Esther Project is a gender-specific initiative dedicated to supporting women experiencing mental health challenges, escaping domestic abuse, recovering from addiction, transitioning from prison, or facing homelessness.
Based in Royal Leamington Spa and serving Warwick, Kenilworth, and the wider South Warwickshire community, the project offers a wide range of services. These include a safe and nurturing home environment, counselling, one-to-one support, creative activities, employability opportunities, and regular drop-in sessions. We also run a welcoming pre-loved women’s clothing shop and community drop-in space, providing both practical resources and a supportive place to connect.
“Our mission is to create a nurturing and empowering community where every woman can heal, grow, and realise her true potential. We are committed to supporting women to overcome barriers caused by trauma, and social or economic disadvantage, enabling them to thrive and build fulfilling, independent lives.”
Bodies & Co Fashion Show
We are incredibly grateful and so excited to have been chosen as one of the charitable causes benefiting from the Bodies & Co Fashion Show 2026.
Being supported by such a well-established event — celebrating its 45th annual show — means so much to us, and the funds raised will help us continue supporting women in our community through The Esther Project – Women of Worth.
Tickets are just £17, and we’d love to see as many supporters there as possible. To grab your tickets and be part of an amazing evening of fashion for a cause, visit:
