Sessions for professionals

Our popular occasional sessions for professionals continue online for the moment; hosted by members of our Rose & Doorway teams, they provide not only an opportunity for us to share the work of The Magdalene Group, but also for professionals from other agencies to talk about their roles and experiences, & between us we can share best practice. New year sessions will take place from 10 - 11 a.m. on Wednesday 26th February, Tuesday 25th March and Wednesday 23rd April. If you would like to attend, please e-mail support@magdalenegroup.org or contact the office on 01603 610256 to book a place, as numbers are limited.

You Know When a Conversation Starts With: “You Can Say No If You Want To, But I Think You’d Be Really Good…” by Angela Brett

In October 2023, my (very) supportive boss, Richard Ross, approached me with a proposal/idea/suggestion... Yvonne, his wife, and a Trustee of The Magdalene Group (TMG), mentioned that the charity would be celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2024. To mark this milestone, they wanted to organise a fundraising event, a Charity Ball. With my experience in the third sector and hosting charity events, they both thought I’d be a good fit.

National Human Trafficking Awareness Day : 11th January

National Human Trafficking Awareness Day : 11th January

“Human Trafficking Awareness Day takes place on 11th January every year and is a solemn reminder of the ongoing fight against human trafficking, a grave violation of human rights affecting millions worldwide. This day is dedicated to raising awareness about the different forms of human trafficking, including labour and sexual exploitation, and to educating the public about how to identify and combat this global issue. Human Trafficking Awareness Day serves as a call to action for governments, organizations, and individuals to increase efforts to prevent trafficking, protect victims, and prosecute perpetrators. It’s a day to shed light on the plight of victims and to promote the importance of human rights, dignity, and freedom. By bringing attention to this critical issue, the day aims to inspire collective action and foster a world where such exploitation is eradicated.”
