Abianda works with gang-affected young women aged 10-24 in London and delivers training to professionals nationally. Our mission is to bring about a culture shift in the way services are delivered to gang-affected young women, so they feel safe to access help; to ensure they are no longer a hidden group in our communities; and they are free from harm and abuse. We pursue social impact through our services, training, and providing paid employment opportunities for gang-affected young women so that they can influence the future delivery of services.
Our unique model of practice addresses the barriers that stop young women seeking help. By asking young women the right questions and offering an equal, transparent relationship we help them discover their own resilience and competence and to develop the power to change their situation. Our former service users co-facilitate all our training, and so shape the way professionals understand GAYW and work with them.
