"Words from Warrior Women"

Celebrating the Power of Poetry and Recovery

WE:ARE Women's Empowerment and Recovery Educators, in partnership with Poetry Prescribed, is proud to announce the release of "Words From Warrior Women", a collection of poetry written by survivors of domestic violence. This powerful book is a testament to the resilience and strength of the human spirit.

The poetry collection is a culmination of Poetry Prescribed workshops, facilitated by renowned spoken word artist Miss Yankey. The poems reflect the transformative power of poetry, weaving together stories of struggle, hope, and empowerment.

“Poetry is a powerful tool for social change, helping us reclaim our stories, identities, and agency.” Miss Yankey states, "I am honored to be a part of this process and help bring these powerful voices to the world."

"Words From Warrior Women"
is an invitation to listen, to bear witness to the strength that lies within us all. It serves as a beacon of inspiration and support for survivors, reminding them of their worth and offering a gentle embrace of solidarity.

The book is supported by Jess Phillips MP, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State in the Home Office. "Helping women who have suffered abuse to find the words to truly express their experiences is no small thing... Language and words are the greatest tools in the abuse of women."

"We are thrilled to share this powerful collection of poetry with the world,"
said Jacky Mulveen, Project Manager at WE:ARE. "The words within these pages are a testament to the resilience and strength of the women who have participated in our workshops."
