A summary

Girls Journeying Together groups offer a year of in-person monthly support for preteen girls as they practise being true to themselves, learn about puberty, share their hopes and fears, and help each other into their teens. Girls' group supports girls as they enter adolescence and (if they go to school) to make the transition into secondary school. We support girls to emerge from adolescence stronger than they went in, working to prevent the high rates of anxiety, self-harm and low esteem.
At the same time the mothers meet to form a community of support for one another at this pivotal stage of parenting.
Girls Journeying Together groups help girls enter their teens feeling self-assured and supported. We meet monthly for a year and the girls make friends for life.

Changing the world - one girl at a time.

Kim McCabe, Rites for Girls CIC

I’m on a mission to help make growing up for girls kinder, happier, safer and better supported. I’m the founder director of Rites for Girls CIC where we offer year-long groups to preteen girls, and six-week online groups, having fun and mentoring them into their teen years, support for mothers and training for women who want to run these girls' groups. I studied child psychology at Cambridge University and have worked with young people for thirty-five years. I was a home-educating mother of three.

Cancellation policy

Once a girl decides to join Girls Journeying Together there is a single payment for the year, which can be paid in monthly instalments. We are able to offer fully funded places.

My experience is an educational activity, and the ‘14-day cooling period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 therefore applies. After the 14 day period my standard policy will apply.
