Company activities and impact

We Are Frieda CIC is a Black feminist, by-and-for community interest company providing intersectional training, consultancy, and research to improve responses to domestic and sexual violence, particularly for racialised and marginalised communities. During the financial year, our activities focused on increasing cultural competency, anti-racist practice, and intersectional awareness across the VAWG and broader social care sector. We delivered accredited training programmes for domestic and sexual violence practitioners, developed practitioner toolkits (including the Intersectional Risk Tracker Tool), and supported frontline organisations to embed culturally appropriate, trauma-informed practices. We facilitated specialist workshops on topics such as intersectional feminist leadership, disempowerment and advocacy, and anti-oppressive service design. These sessions directly benefited practitioners, service leaders, and commissioners, equipping them to better support racialised survivors of violence and abuse. We also undertook community research projects exploring the experiences and needs of Black and racialised women affected by sexual violence in the West Midlands. This work aimed to address systemic gaps in support and inform future policy and service development.
