Imkaan

Imkaan is the UK's only national Black feminist umbrella organisation dedicated to addressing violence against Black and minoritised women and girls. The organisation works to improve responses to violence against women and girls and supports a network of specialist organisations across the UK.

They provide:

  • Support and representation for specialist organisations working with Black and minoritised women and girls

  • Research, policy and advocacy to improve services and outcomes for survivors

  • Training and resources for professionals

  • Access to culturally specific support through member organisations across the UK

  • Campaigns to address violence against women and girls and promote equality and justice

Imkaan does not provide direct crisis support but helps connect women and girls to specialist organisations that offer culturally informed, trauma-responsive support.

How to access support

If you or a resident need support relating to domestic abuse, sexual violence or other forms of violence against women and girls, Imkaan can help connect you with specialist services for Black and minoritised women and girls.
