SHE RISES 🌸
Throughout September, VEDA Women’s Club CIC delivered She Rises, a four-week programme hosted at Wesley Hall in collaboration with Leicester City in the Community
She Rises was created to give women access to practical knowledge, personal development, professional expertise and, most importantly, a supportive community in which to learn and grow.
From the beginning, we wanted every participant to feel invested in. Each woman taking part received a VEDA bag, VEDA notebook and VEDA pen to use throughout the programme.
A huge thank you to KP Trading & Distribution for sponsoring our VEDA bags, and to Samworth Brothers for sponsoring our notebooks, pens, programme supplies and drinks.
Across the four weeks, we explored:
🌸 Mental Health & Wellbeing
🌸 Soft Skills
🌸 Vision Boards, Affirmations & Journaling
🌸 A Free Legal Clinic
Over the next few posts, we’ll be taking you through each week of She Rises and celebrating the people, partners and participants who made it possible.
Because She Rises was never intended to be just four sessions. It was about confidence, knowledge, connection and giving women practical tools to take forward with them.
And this is only Part One.
She Rises. Next, She Conquers.
Coming in 2027. 💗
WEEK ONE | MENTAL HEALTH & WELLBEING 🌸
We began She Rises by creating space for one of the most important conversations of all: our wellbeing.
Led by Hasina Reshamwalla , Week One focused on mental health, resilience and the importance of prioritising ourselves while navigating the pressures of everyday life.
An honest, supportive start to four weeks of learning, connection and growth.
This was Week One of She Rises. 💗
WEEK TWO | SOFT SKILLS 🌸
Week Two of She Rises was all about the skills that often make the biggest difference.
Led by Nimisha Pancholi , the session explored confidence, communication and interpersonal skills, helping participants think about how they present themselves and navigate both professional and personal spaces.
Because developing yourself is just as important as developing your CV.
This was Week Two of She Rises. 💗
WEEK THREE | VISION BOARDS, AFFIRMATIONS & JOURNALING 🌸
