ABOUT CROSSROADS WOMEN

OBJECTIVES

Crossroads Women was formed in 2009 to renovate and run an expanded more accessible Crossroads Women’s Centre in Kentish Town, north-west London. The Women’s Centre has existed in different venues in the London Borough of Camden since 1976. We have been at 25 Wolsey Mews since April 2012. Through the Centre, women and their loved ones participate in self-help and peer support activities, volunteer, learn new skills, get support for community, cultural, educational, health, environmental or social projects, and access help and information about their rights including to escape racial and sexual violence.

Beneficiaries include single mothers, women with disabilities or health problems, asylum seekers, immigrant and refugee women, survivors of rape or other abuse, carers, students, grandmothers, pensioners, LBTQI, unemployed women, and low-waged workers.

TRUSTEES

They remain: Cristel Amiss, Carolina Begue, Solveig Francis, Claire Glasman, Selma James, Sylvia Salley.

CROSSROADS WOMEN’S CENTRE FOR ALL

The Centre provides a base and meeting space for women’s and community groups.

2020 was the fifth year of a second five-year grant from the Big Lottery Fund to develop the community services provided at the Centre.

The pandemic – how we adapted and responded

For most of the first three months of 2020 our work continued under the usual inperson conditions. After the first lockdown in March, we had to close the Women’s Centre to the public, redirect the mail, arrange remote access to the ansafone and computers/emails. The three staff, up to 15 volunteers plus trustees met every week (on zoom) to keep in touch and

discuss how to respond to emergency and calls for help etc.

Staff and volunteers (some of whom were shielding) rose magnificently to the occasion, to work from home as we rearranged our work to happen by phone, email and Zoom. In this way we were able to continue dealing daily with queries for help, information and support. A notice on our front door informed beneficiaries who still showed up how to contact us. On account of the pandemic we had to address a higher number of urgent enquiries that required us to do more research and to be creative in our responses.

When lockdown restrictions were temporarily relaxed, people did not feel comfortable for health reasons to travel in on public transport or open up to the public. Some people worked socially distanced at the Centre for essential appointments.

It quickly became clear that the impact of the pandemic was falling disproportionately heavily on women, especially women of colour and single mothers, who were losing jobs, trying to claim and survive on Universal Credit, increasing their unwaged caring work burden for vulnerable adults, children and neighbours as statutory support services were abruptly cut. People with disabilities were left in life-threatening situations.

Women were working from home while trying to home-school; managing the brunt of others’ anxieties, young and old; trying to maintain health in risky situations (overcrowded housing; front-line jobs); being bereaved; sometimes trapped with frustrated even violent partners, while experiencing anxiety about loved ones in care homes or hospital, and adjusting to the loss of family or friendship support networks. Women have expressed being at the end of their tether, but not being able to show it. This combination of factors has contributed to more mental health issues which may take years to resolve.

Access to self-help resources and information

“Words cannot express, I am so happy to have been able to buy food, and credit to call people I care about during this lockdown which found me at my lowest .” A sylum seeker from Kenya.

Case-study

We referred a 37-year-old woman facing imminent eviction to a rare opportunity to apply for secure social housing (the Centre is on a list to be alerted to such openings). She had mental health issues and had lost her job due to the pandemic. She had only experienced short-lived accommodation, moving 30 times in 20 years. We encouraged her to fill in the form and helped her to prepare for the interview. She was allocated the flat and when she moved in said: “ Having my own secure home for the first time in my life gave me a huge sense of security and confidence. I have the biggest smile on my face. Thank you so much for your help .” She has since found a job, and started a course.

Peer support and self-help

 Mothers largely from the Bengali community, supported each other against the closure of a well-loved local primary school which would affect overstretched low-income families, disrupt long-standing supportive relationships between staff, children and parents, increase travel time for mothers and children, break up friendship groups, and make the local environment less childfriendly. Parents found out that they had been bypassed in the online consultation as parents with little access to the internet, and/or without English as a first language were severely disadvantaged. Mothers including a volunteer at the Centre began their own survey – see below.

 We referred women to self-help meetings online, and informed them of other relevant online events/webinars such as those organised by Fuel Poverty Action, Association of Breastfeeding Mothers and Women in Dialogue to mark the 25[th] anniversary of the UN World Conference on Women in 1995, which some of our longstanding members and volunteers had attended. This communication broadened women’s networks and perspective and gave

women more hope and confidence to act for themselves and each other.

Women shared information informally:

SELF-HELP GROUPS

Asylum Seekers and Refugees

The All African Women’s Group of asylumseeking women includes women from Eastern Europe, Iran, Latin America and other countries. Up to 90 women participated in monthly on-line self-help meetings, weekly training workshops and volunteering sessions to discuss their cases, offer mutual support and advice, learn how to help others, prepare for appeals, etc.

Mothers’ Group – Support not Separation

This group met monthly on-line throughout the year. Many mothers had to attend family court proceedings and meetings with social workers and lawyers on-line. Some mothers and/or their children were shielding and could not use public transport. Mothers, grandmothers as well as supportive fathers who face unwarranted separation from their children/grandchildren were able to continue to exchange experiences, advice, support and encouragement with each other, more needed than ever.

Women with disabilities

WinVisible -- women with visible and invisible disabilities group, continued to hold regular self-help sessions on-line, which became central to crisis support for disabled women

who suddenly found themselves in lifeendangering situations because of the suspension and interruption of social care.

COMMUNITY EVENTS & INITIATIVES

On 8 March, International Women’s Day, we held an open day with panels, films, open mic, delicious home-cooked food, ‘count your work’ survey and info stalls.

Local papers featured our call for “ people to be able to find out more about what the centre does.” A young woman of Indian descent who attended the day said “ Incredible to see so many issues from lived realities .” And another woman said “ Local connection, real news, feel refreshed. This is where I needed to be today .”

Eleanor Rathbone project

The Remembering Eleanor Rathbone – Mother of Child Benefit project progressed. We completed editing the 150 interviews with mothers aged up to 95 years, plus a few husbands, daughters and sons. Interviews had been carried out by volunteers including students from the local Parliament Hill School for Girls.

ACTION FOR THE ENVIRONMENT

 This year as part of ongoing work to measure and reduce our carbon footprint we had more solar panels installed on the roof of the Centre, after securing funding from Camden Council. We worked with Power Up North London green energy group, and local women architects who donated their services for the planning application.

The south-side of the Centre’s roof is now covered with solar panels.

 We had input into a proposed inner city food-growing pilot project addressing food poverty issues and

 Towards the end of the year volunteers met together on Zoom to brainstorm their views for a wrap-around special by the local Camden New Journal on what Camden could be like in a green future. The piece came out early in the new year, headlined “Women lead the charge for ‘caring Camden’”.

COMMUNITY USE OF THE CENTRE

APPEALS

We continue to work in partnership with the groups based at the Women’s Centre, which also provide resources to our beneficiaries including survivors of rape and domestic violence.

Other groups we worked with include Tufnell Park Parents Support Group, Food for All, Camden Law Centre, Think & Do Community space, Transition Kentish Town, Clean Break, Home Start, Remembering Eleanor Rathbone Group, Elfrida Rathbone Society, Law for Life, Mutual Aid societies, North Camden Housing Co-operative, Kentish Town Community Centre, Power Up North London, St Luke’s Church Safe Haven, local schools, nurseries and mum’s groups, students (SOAS, UCL).

INTERNATIONAL CONNECTIONS

Throughout the year, we stayed in touch with women groups in India, Malaysia, Peru, Tanzania, Thailand and the USA and exchanged information on what is happening in their countries. At the start of the pandemic, this was a lifeline for us, as we were able to compare how people were protecting themselves and their loved ones in different countries, and share experiences, including all those who had completely lost their income, often overnight, including shopworkers, sex-workers, asylum-seekers, and those who suddenly found themselves on the frontline of the pandemic, working in dangerous and exhausting circumstances. They were all calling upon local and national governments for emergency resources to feed themselves and their families, but it was also useful to hear about how local communities were sharing resources.

Our fundraising during this first year of the pandemic was focused on emergency relief for the sectors of women who suddenly lost their income, like asylum seekers and any immigrant women who are forced to not have “recourse to public funds”. We were moved by how new and regular donors came forward with additional funds without us asking, understanding that women in our network are deeply impacted by the pandemic. Donations to the annual Christmas asylum appeal increased substantially from the year before.

THANK-YOU

We greatly appreciate the financial support of The Big Lottery Fund, Persula Foundation, Rock ‘n Roll Rescue, Roughly Trust (AW60 Fund), ACTS, and our generous regular donors. Their grants and donations helped make possible our activities.

Our deepest thanks to everyone who contributed over this difficult year: our stalwart volunteers, women and men, who are the backbone of our Centre; the local organisations who fundraised for us; friends and supporters in the local community and beyond whose warm words and deeds (often via phone and zoom, but also in the foodshops and on the street), encourage us daily; the speakers on zoom who encouraged and urged us to keep going, and the technical support people who enabled us to get into our zoom meetings, and gave us training in zoom and other social media; therapists in Vital Forces who provided free or low-cost healing therapies; and local journalists always ready to report on our activities.
