Chief execJJtive, Women's Ad Reflecting on the past year, l am proud of everything Women's Aid has achieved, parb"culady in the face of significant challenges. As we continue our mission to end domestic abuse, our federation has remained steadfast in supporting women and children across England, while advocating for systemic change. This year marked our 50th anniversary-a moment of reflection and ￿lebratiOn. We were honoured to welcome Her Majesty Queen Camilla to a special event, recognising the dedication of our staff, members, and supporters. It was also a year of organisalional transformation, as we restructured our directorates to strengthen collaboration across teams and clarify our professional offer to survivors. members. and wder aUdien￿S. Whik some services, such as Live Chat, were closed, key sutvivor-facing programmes induding No Woman Tumed Away which setves some of the most margin81ised of survivors, our Survivors Forum, and the Friends and Family resour(*s have been retained and further developed. The transfomiab'on also enables inthouse delivery of Nalional Quality Standards INQSI assessments, supporting our members wf(h a￿reditatIOn and sector leadership. These changes positson Women's Aid to be more agile, sustainable, and impactful in the years ahead. Over the past year, our federation grew stroTrger welcoming 15 new member organisalions, bringing our total membership to 185. Together, we delivered over 300 vital frontline servI￿s, reaching thousands of survivors with support tailored to their needs. In face of economic pressures, soaetal turbulen￿ and the racist and divisive narratives we are contending wilh, our federation has stood fim. We continued to advocate for all women and children, induding Blad(, minoritised 8nd migrant women, ensuring our values of indusion and solidarity rernained at the heart of everything we do. Women's Aid was also sadly affected by economic climate and was obliged to make changes lo ils structure, as well letting go of some cnlically important servi￿5 and deeply committed colleagues owing to a lack of funding. During the year, the domestic abuse and wder violen￿ Against Women and Girls IVAWGI sector in the UK saw several significant legislative and policy developments, bolstered by the Labour govemment's pledge to halve VAWG within a decade. While this signals a renewed focJJs, COn￿mS remain around funding and implementation across the sector, and Women's Aid, working wth its membership and sector partners. will always fight for deeper refomis and sustainable nding. Looking ahead, I remain hopeful. The challenges are real, but so is our progress. Our federation continues to be a powerful for￿ for change, and l am deeply thankful for every member, supporter5, Staff colleague, the survivors we work with who so bravely share their stories and so generously offer their guidan￿, to our incredible board, who volunteer of their lime so generously and to our chair(sl, Sarah Hill who stepp￿1 down in December 2024, and to M8di Makgoba-Turpin who have both been phenomenal. Their unwavering comment makes thi5 work possible. l also want to offer my heartfelt thanks to our donors and contributors without whom we would not ￿ able to do the work we do. Page 2

Influencing slakeholders through research and action -The Price of Safety111.' Our researth, the Pri￿ of Safety, shows how rt can cost approximately £50,000 for survivors lo flee abuse and rebuild their life. Whilst stale support can miloate those costs, there is still a fvnding gap of £10,000+ which is impossible to fill for many survivors. The biggest single cost is likely to be legal fees for the family court lo fight for their children's safety. The second biggest cost is housing. Only thirds of these costs are met through benefits. -continuing to campaign for improved family courts-women's AKI responded to a consultation on potentially harmful changes in the family courts which would have made mediation mandatory. The dangerous measures were Su￿ssfUllY overturned.121 Supporting survivors with whal they need when they need it We are proud that Women's Aid provided direct support to survivors and those who support them via 1,000's of correspondence, chats sessions and inteNentions. 11,756 Live Chat sessions were held A total of 10,993 emails were responded lo 659 professionals supported from soaal servI￿s, the NHS, poli￿. housing teams, VAWG services and other servI￿s.

WOMENS AID FEDERATION OF ENGLAND NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of preparing the financial ststements The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordan￿ wth the Charits"es SORP {FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities.. Statement of Recommended Practi￿ applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordanc£ with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland IFRS 1021 (effective 1 January 20191,, Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland, and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. Going Concern The trustees are confident that the tharity remains financially strong, having undergone a significant change programme in response to the challenging funding landscape, and moved designated funds back into free reserves to provide flexibility during this change. These actions have ensured that the charity remains a going concEm. The Charity's figures are looking more positive moving forward, wth a projected defiat of £275,000 in 2025126 and retuming to a breakeven position in 2026127. Income All income is recognised in the Statement of Finanual Activitses On￿ the charity has entiuement to the fvnds, il is probable that the ino)me will be re￿iVed and the amount can be measured reliably. Donations are recognised when the Chanty has been notifEd in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a ￿Ve1 of perf0mlan￿ by the Charity before the Charity is entiued to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised unb'l either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilmenl of those conditions is wholly within the control of the Charity and it is probable that these conditions will be ￿lfilled in the reporting period. Legacy gifts are recognised on a case by case basis following the grant of probate when the administratorlexeculor for the estate has communicated in writing both the arnount and settlement date. In the event that the gift is in the form of an asset other than cash or a finanaal asset traded on a reownised stock exchange, recognition is subject to the value of the gift being reliably measurable with a degree of reasonable accuracy and the title to the assel having been transferred to the Charity. Deferred income represents amount re￿iVed for future periods and is released to incoming resources in the period for which, it has been received. Such income is only deferred when". - The donor specifies that the grant or donation must only be used in future accounting periods., or - The donor has imposed conditions which must be met before the Charity has uno)nditional entitlement. Where servi￿$ or farylities are provided lo the Charity as a donalion Ihat would nomially be purchased from our suppliers this benefit is induded in the finanaal statements at it's fair value unless il's fair value cannot be reliably measured, then at the cost to the donor ot the resale value of goods that are to be sold. Expenditure Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a ￿gaI or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expendilure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have ￿en allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resour(Es. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure. Governance costs These include the o)sts attributable to the Charity's Complian￿ constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and Trustee's meetings and reimbursed expenses. Allocation and apportionment of costs Support costs indude Central functions and have been allocated the activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of the reSoUr￿s, for exarnple, allocating property costs by floor area. or per capila, staff (x)sls by the time spent and other costs by their usage.

WOMENS AID FEDERATION OF ENGLAND NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 ACCOUNTING POLICIES- continued Tangible fixed assets Depreaation is provided al the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. Office refurbishment- 5 years straight line Computer equipment- 3 year5 straight li Taxation The Charity is considered to pass the test set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finan￿ Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a tharitable company for UK corporalion tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of inc£)me or capital gains rec£ived wthin categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporabon Tax Act 2010 or Sech'on 256 of Taxab'on of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exdusively to charitable purposes. Fund aceounting Unrestricted funds can be used in accordan￿ with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. Restricted funds can only be used for particular restrrted purposes wthin the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fvnd is induded in the notes to the finanaal slalements. Pension eosts and other post4etirement benefits The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charilabk company's pension scheme are charged to the Ststement of Finanual Activities in the period to which they relate. Trade debtors Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merthandise sold or se￿I￿S perfomed in the ordinary course of business. Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction pri￿. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impaimient. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the Charity wll not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original temis of the re￿1vable$. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-temi highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. Trade creditors Trade creditors are obligations to pay for gocxjs or servi￿$ that have been a￿Uired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are dassified as current liabilities if the Charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlemenl of the creditor for at leasl twelve months after the reporting dale. If there is an unconditional right to defer setuement for at least ￿e1ve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilit*s. Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction pri￿ and sUbseqUen￿Y measured at amortised cost using the effective method. Financial Instruments Classification Financial assets and financial liabil￿e5 are recogniseed when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial liabilities and equty instruments are dassffied according to the Substan￿ of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that eVIden￿S a residual interest in the assets of the Charity after deducting all of ils liabilities. Page 22 continued...

WOMENS AID FEDERATION OF ENGLAND NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 ACCOUNTING POLICIES- continued Trade debtors Reco nition and measurement All financial assets and liabilities are initially measures at transaction pri￿ {induding transactions costs), except for those financial assets dassified as at fair value though profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value Iwhich is normally the transaction pri￿ exduding transaction coslsl, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. If an arrangement conslilutes a finanryng Iransath"on, the financial asset or finanaal liability is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a mad(et rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are only offset in the statement of finanaal position when, and only when there exists a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the Charity intends either to setue on 8 net basi5, or to realise the a55et and settle the liability simultaneously. Finanaal assets are derecognised when and only when a) the contractual rights to the the cash flows from the financial asset expire or are settled, bl the Charity transfers to another party substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the finanryal asset, or c} the Charity. despite having retained some, but not all, signrficant risks and rewards of ownership, has transferred control of the asset lo another paty.
