Welcome to Women's Centres Regional Partnership (WCRP)

The Women's Centres Regional Partnership (WCRP) is an emerging partnership of four lead regional women's organisations linking with fourteen frontline women's organisations across Northern Ireland. This new partnership has emerged from the report of the Review Group on women's organisations providing support and services to disadvantaged areas. Read more

The four key lead partners of the Partnership are the Women's Resource and Development Agency (WRDA), Women's Support Network (WSN), Northern Ireland Rural Women's Network (NIRWN) and The Women's Centre, Derry. The fourteen Women's Centres are spread across Northern Ireland with seven from the Greater Belfast and Lisburn area, four in the North West and three in Dungannon, Magherafelt and Craigavon. Together the WCRP seeks to develop and strengthen a regional infrastructure which will support community based women's organisations across Northern Ireland.
