SELF defence will be demonstrated at a women's safety day on Wednesday.
The event, to mark an international day of action to end violence against women, will also have spiritual healing workshops, Christmas crafts and tombola stalls, as well as a taste of the exotic with a belly-dancing demonstration.
It is being held at the Borough Hall, on Hartlepool's Headland, from 8.30am to 3pm, and is being funded by a number of different groups in the town.
Admission is free. Call Lesley Hall on (01429) 296366 for more details.
