Do you want to work for a values-led charity that centres young women’s voices?
Abianda is a London-based charity that works with young women and girls affected by criminal exploitation and violence, and the professionals who support them. We exist to ensure young women are no longer hidden in our communities and can live free from harm and abuse. We aim to bring about a culture shift in how services are delivered to young women and girls, so that they can access support that works for them when they need it.
We are seeking experienced, reflective and values-driven freelance trainers to support the delivery of high-quality training for professionals working with young women and girls affected by criminal exploitation and violence. This role is ideal for someone who is confident in participatory facilitation, committed to trauma-informed and intersectional practice, and able to work collaboratively.
The role will involve facilitating sessions in person and online and may require overnight travel and stays.
If you have experience delivering training and want to use your facilitation skills to improve professionals' understanding of young women and girls, we'd love to hear from you!
“The trainers know how to hold a room well. Excellent knowledge and experience and interaction. Every session has been informative and enjoyable - the time passes so quickly!”
