The Perthyn project ran from January 2019 for a year (‘Perthyn’ meaning ‘Belonging’ in Welsh).
Perthyn was based on a peer-led approach and subsequently, began with the recruitment of peer-leaders. These women were invited to join Perthyn with the transparent aim of supporting them to facilitate the group.
The overall aim of this process evaluation is to explore the experiential process of people seeking sanctuary becoming peer leaders using a ‘hope’ theory.
