A charity run by women, for women and girls
Encouraging, inspiring and empowering women and girls to thrive.
Her-Place Charitable Trust runs safe, women-only spaces across Cheshire — counselling and peer support, community hubs and a launderette, period dignity supplies and inclusive movement — so that no woman or girl faces her mental health alone.
Her-Place Charitable Trust · Registered charity no. 1173554 · Charitable Incorporated Organisation
We fundraise in line with the Code of Fundraising Practice.
Practical help, safe spaces and a listening ear — free wherever we can make it so.
Everything Her-Place does starts with a woman or girl telling us what she needs. These are the four strands of the work your support keeps going.
- 01
Wellbeing & mental health
Counselling, peer support, wellbeing days and workshops run by women, for women and girls across Cheshire — including Believe In Her, FlourisHER and Inspire Her.
1,400 support sessions a year
- 02
Her Hubs & practical help
The Crewe Community Share Hub and the Winsford Community Launderette: baby bank items, clothing, period dignity supplies and repair skills, offered without judgement.
2 community hubs, 350 sports teams supplied
- 03
Active Her
Women-only, inclusive movement — walking, netball tasters, open-water dips — that puts enjoyment and friendship ahead of competition or appearance.
40 movement sessions a season
- 04
Families & campaigns
Thriving Families parenting and counselling support in Northwich and Winsford, plus SafeHer Spaces, Period Dignity and the #APlaceForHER Women's Centre campaign.

“Since our founding, we have been dedicated to empowering and uplifting women through tailored wellbeing services, advocacy and community support.”
From Motherwell to Her-Place.
Founded in Crewe in 2015 as a small community interest company supporting mums, Motherwell became a charitable incorporated organisation in 2017 and grew into wellbeing hubs, counselling, campaigns and a launderette. In April 2025 it became Her-Place Charitable Trust — a name that reflects a mission for all women and girls, not only mothers. The lottery is the newest chapter: a steady, local way to fund the work.
