Churches in Reading Women's Centre (CIRWC) is a safe place where women are accepted and valued regardless of age, ethnicity or faith. Our main focus is working with women who are at a disadvantage in the community, such as those who have suffered from abuse, violence, have mental health problems, physical health problems, are lacking in self confidence or are just lonely and isolated. We try to enrich their lives and enable them to integrate back into the community by providing a 'listening ear', friendship and support. 


We offer many different services including:


  • A comfortable, friendly and enjoyable atmosphere.
  • A hot meal, and drinks all day!
  • Ongoing creative arts and craft 
  • Days out on organised trips
  • Local support through relationships with other Reading based agencies & services
  • Caring staff who always have a ‘listening ear’
  • Friendship and company from  like minded women of Reading.                              
Our Opening Times are:

Tuesday        10:00 am – 3:00 pm
Wednesday   10:00 am – 3:00 pm
Thursday       10:00 am – 3:00 pm

Lunch is served at 1pm
