Between Us Sisters

The Circle

Our monthly flagship series: a safe space for honest conversations between sisters.

MonthlyLondonFlagship programme

Between Us Sisters is our most regular programme, and the heart of what we do. Each month we gather for honest, open conversation on the issues that shape women's lives, held in a space that is genuinely safe, warm and by sisters, for sisters.

We address important and often overlooked topics: safety and support, silence and speaking up, identity, faith and belonging. Every session pairs meaningful discussion with reflection and real connection, celebrating sisterhood at its best.

Past sessions have explored questions like why silence can feel safer than support, and what it truly means to embody the lessons of Karbala today, always through the lens of the teachings of the Ahlulbayt (as).
