Our Programme Action:
The projects we undertake are all rooted in the Soroptimist Vision & Mission, inspiring action and creating opportunities to transform the lives of women and girls. Our projects are wide and varied, and we work locally, nationally and internationally. Each project focuses on one of the five Programme Areas identified by Soroptimist International:
- Economic Empowerment
- Education
- Environmental Sustainability
- Food Security and Healthcare
- Violence and Conflict Resolution
Our projects are linked to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) – ending poverty, eradicating hunger, providing education and preserving the environment. We record all our actions on a database that is used by the United Nations to bring about policy change and practical responses to key issues.
In November 2024, members of Bridgend Soroptimists participated in a review of Specialist Domestic Abuse Courts in South Wales (a project undertaken across the region of Wales South).
