Introduction to Working with Female Sex Workers

Tuesday, February 25, 2025 - 1:30:00 PM until

Hosted by the Leeds Women's Homelessness and Housing Frontline Network, this short training will offer an introduction for those working with women involved in sex work. It covers key areas such as relevant legislation, pathways into sex work and support strategies. The training content has been co-produced with someone working in the sex industry.

The Leeds Women’s Homelessness and Housing Frontline Network launched in 2021 and is facilitated by Basis Yorkshire in partnership with Together Women and Leeds Women’s Aid.

This network brings together frontline workers providing intensive support to women in Leeds. It is a much-needed forum given the lack of gendered focus and initiatives on homelessness and includes increased attention on hidden homelessness, Domestic and Sexual Violence and other traumatic experiences more often experienced by women. In addition to homelessness charities, it ensures specialist agencies such as those supporting sex workers, migrant women (particularly those with no recourse to public funds), harm reduction agencies, criminal justice, are invited to contribute, given the strong link between these issues and homelessness.
