Sev Necati worked in partnership with Brent Council and Ashford Place (formally
known as the Cricklewood Homeless Centre) to deliver a series of workshops for women
in personal safety and self-defence that access the centre and live in the
local community.
The free programme took place at Ashford Place and the women and girls aged
from sixteen plus took part in discussions and practical exercises in
self-defence.
