The people behind the work
The founder, directors and specialists behind Viva Core CIC.
Joyce Mwape
Joyce founded Viva Core after her own postnatal recovery showed how little joined-up support existed for women. What she needed - specialist movement, clear health education and the company of other women - simply was not there in one place.
So she built it. The CIC formalises the community side of that work, so it can grow, attract funding and reach the women who need it most: those least likely to be offered specialist support, and least able to pay for it.
