City Gateway Women’s Programmes provide exciting opportunities for local women to gain independence, grow in confidence, access employment and develop skills in a supportive community environment.
For 15 years, City Gateway has been successfully offering friendly and supported learning and development programmes for women in East London. Our Women’s Programmes Centre in Stepney is a friendly, busy place, which welcomes over 130 women each week – from a wide range of cultures and backgrounds.
We provide accredited study opportunities including ESOL, maths and ICT as well as running a number of drop-in activities and courses for our learners, all in a safe female-only environment.
Last term we ran 17 programmes and welcomed over 100 learners from 10 different ethnicities. Our youngest learner was 21 and our eldest 72.

– Employability Support

Through our family support programme we also run a creche for parents with children aged 0-5, so we can look after your little ones while you’re on your course.

Why do we do this? Because we genuinely see the potential in women across our community and believe all women deserve the support and training to achieve their ambitions and be the author of their own success story.
