Welcome to West Riding Heritage C.I.C.
West Riding Heritage C.I.C. is a non-profit organisation dedicated to improving mental health and well-being for women and girls, with a special focus on empowering local BAME communities.
We provide a safe, women-only space where participants build practical, transferable DIY skills using traditional hand tools. Through hands-on craft and outdoor projects, we help reduce isolation, boost self-esteem, and create lasting community connections across indoor and outdoor spaces.

-
Woodland Conservation: Restore mental well-being while caring for local natural habitats through hands-on outdoor work.
