A one-day Self Defence & Personal Safety workshop for girls aged 11 to 13 is being held in Warkworth on Saturday, April 7.
The course aims to help girls learn how to resist unwanted approaches; say ‘no’ in unsafe situations; use verbal and physical ways to deal with abuse and assault; and develop strength and confidence by increasing knowledge of their bodies, feelings and rights.
The workshop, which is being organised by the Rodney Women’s Centre, will run from 9.30am to 2pm at Totara Park community hall, off Melwood Drive. It costs $35 and the tutor will be Lorraine Moir. Numbers are limited and bookings are essential. Participants need to wear comfortable clothes and bring their own lunch.
A second workshop for young women aged 16 and over will be held in May.
