The Esther Project
The Esther Project is Yada's Outreach Service.
The Esther Project aims to:
- Increase safety
- Increase well-being
- Reduce isolation
We offer visits to self-identifying women in the sex industry in Coastal West Sussex (from Worthing to Chichester). These visits are discreet and confidential; they can be one-off or regular and at a convenient location.
We offer listening and emotional and practical support, tailor-made safety information, and signposting to other specialist services such as sexual health. We also offer spiritual support to those who would like it. We can offer support to women in all sectors of the sex industry, including independent and agency escorts, women working in massage parlours, and women exchanging sex for rent or other necessities.
***Due to Coronavirus, we have had to put a pause on our Outreach Services. If you would like support, you can still reach the team over email or phone, Mondays and Tuesday 9am - 4pm and we will see what we can do: hello@esthersproject.org 07902 726432
