_About us:

The Pankhurst Trust brings together Manchester Women's Aid and the Pankhurst Centre.

We work together to ensure the story of the women who won the vote continues to inspire us all to challenge gender inequality, and to ensure that those suffering from domestic violence and abuse get the confidential help they need.

The Pankhurst Trust (Incorporating Manchester Women's Aid) is a diverse organisation with c31% of our staff coming from BAME and c12% from LGBTQ+ communities.

We span the generations with c11% of staff being aged 18-24 and c25% aged % of staff identify as having a disability.

Our staff, volunteers and service users have recently taken time to reflect on who we are and what we do when we are at our best.

This reflection showed that we can proudly claim to be:

Courageous by challenging inequality
, stepping forward and making change

Affirming by supporting and inspiring, paying attention to discover what matters

Generous by sharing our skills, creating energetic positive links, and thriving together

Rooted by being secure in our communities, participating and nurturing a sense of belonging

PTMWA are looking for volunteers to join our Board of Trustees: women who can help us to continue the vital work we do for women and girls, women who can inspire action, and women who can help us carry forward the ambitious plans we have for the Trust.

The Pankhurst Trust has huge ambitions for the delivery of its Domestic Abuse services, the majority of which are open to all and some of which are single-sex, and our Equality and Heritage services.

Helping the team to carry forward these aims will be an important part of being a Board Member.
