Turkish Cypriot Women's ProjectAbout Us
The Turkish Cypriot Women’s Project was initially set up in November 1984 to target the needs of Turkish Cypriot women. A small group of Turkish speaking women got together to advise and support these women to help alleviate isolation and encourage them to access vital services. That small organisation has grown today into one of London’s major Turkish speaking women’s organisations, which provides a high quality and caring service to all Turkish Cypriot, Turkish and Kurdish women.
However, we have extended our services to support any woman that comes to us in need of advice and assistance. Clients may, on some occasions, be referred to agencies better able to meet their needs due to specific language and cultural requirements or a particular expertise. Client’s consent will always be obtained prior to a referral.
To meet the needs of the Turkish Cypriot, Turkish and Kurdish women who are disadvantaged in society by providing culturally sensitive services. The following values underpin our mission statement and the significance to the quality of service we provide.
