Performance
In 2023, Muslim Won]en's Network UK (MWNUK) marked its 20-year anniversary. As well as Teflecting on our
achievements, we also looked ahead into the fi]ture. We therefore held board and management away days and refreshed
our mission, vision and objectives and developed a new strategy to take us to 2030. Based on our new strategic
objectives of safety, inclusion and solidarity, we launched a Muslim Women's Manifesto.
The MWN Helpline was contacted approximately 3800 times in 2023 and 1473 service users were supported. An
additional 1029 beneficiaries included children who were also indirectly helped through the support provided to their
mothers. To improve rnental health. we provided 409 culturally sensitive counselling sessions to around 80 of the service
users. To help improve wellbeing, we completed our walking project in 2023. It resulted in 22 Walk Leaders who
supported 210 women and girls to complete 331 walks across 8 cities (in 66 green spaces).
We launched a Muslim Women's Advisory Group to provide insights and help inforni our work, particularly advocacy.
Our advocacy work has included responding on cost of living. prosecuting sexual offen¢es. escalation of violence against
women and girls, women's reproductive health, hate crime, the Victims Bill and Online Safety Bill. We published 12
media statements and were featured in a BBC Newsnight piece on domestic abuse I homicides.
We have hosted I partnered on events which included experiences of women of colour in politics, celebrating
achievements of refugee women and raising awareness about Islamophobia. Our resource downloads increased by 17%
to 328, 215.
