Meet, interact & share
Nisa-Nashim supports and nurtures the grassroots development of safe, inclusive groups of women across the country to meet, interact and share positive experiences. In addition, we have groups focussed around a specific area of interest, like book club groups, a teachers group, a lawyers group and many others.
Our groups are co-chaired by a Muslim and a Jewish woman. If you would like know more about joining a group or helping set up a small group in your area (or area of interest) please contact us.
Alternatively you might simply wish initially to join Nisa-Nashim, come to our central events and be part of our ‘sisterhood’ in which case sign up for our newsletters or become a member.
