Empowering women and girls through self-defence and personal safety
Ignite Your Power CIC is a female-led organisation delivering expert self-defence and personal safety education for women and girls. Through community projects, workshops, and professional training, we create spaces where people can build their confidence, trust their instincts, and feel more in control in everyday situations.
For women, by women. We combine lived understanding with practical expertise to deliver training that is empowering, accessible, and grounded in real-life situations.
For women, by women
At Ignite Your Power, we believe women and girls deserve access to practical self-defence and personal safety education that reflects the realities they face.
We exist to empower women and girls through projects, workshops, and learning experiences that build confidence, awareness, and real-life skills. Our work is rooted in education, community, and empowerment, creating supportive spaces where women and girls can grow stronger in both confidence and personal safety.
As a female-led organisation, our approach is shaped by lived understanding, compassion, and a commitment to tackling violence against women and girls.
Our mission
Our mission is simple but powerful:
To help women and girls feel safer, stronger, and more confident in themselves and their surroundings.
We do this by providing accessible self-defence and personal safety education, alongside community initiatives and professional training that create meaningful, lasting impact for individuals, organisations, and communities alike.
Professional training with community impact
Ignite Your Power combines community understanding with professional expertise to deliver high-quality self-defence and personal safety training.
We work with women and girls directly, while also partnering with schools, local authorities, workplaces, and community organisations that want to support safety, confidence, and empowerment in meaningful ways.
Our approach is educational, inclusive, and grounded in real-world experience — helping us deliver training that is both accessible and credible.

Ignite Your Power creates spaces where women and girls can learn, grow, and feel empowered — not through fear, but through knowledge, confidence, and practical action.

'Charlotte came to our girlguide unit to run a session and as a teenager I think this is so important. I go out with my friends and sometimes don't feel safe. I now feel much safer and loved the session.'

"I signed up for the Online Safety Hub and just WOW." So much information. It's great that we can watch it on our own time and new content is always being added. I also love that the money from it goes back into community workshops.'
