(previously known as Relate Worc•stershir•)
Report of the Trustees
For the year ended 31st March 2024
Athievement and Performance
Charltable Artivities
The expertise of Relate trained counseLLors is offered to the public primariLy through the
Worcester Centre and rented premises at other Locations across the counties of Herefordshire,
Worcestershire and Gloucestershlre. During the year we increased our reach to cover a broader
area for face-to-face counselLing to incLude towns from Kidderminster in the North West to
Stow-on-the-wold in the South East of our territory.
Most of our work is with private clients and couples. However. the Trustees have determined
tha( whilst the ongoing counselling of individual and coupLe clients form the strategic backbone
of the charity's activities, ReLate Severn and Wye is well pLaced to play its part in impLementing
improvements to family and young people's well-being through government and iocaL initiatives.
This year our counseLlors worked with 907 clients and delivered 3.794 sessions of relationship
counseLLing - largely in person but also by Ivebcam or telephone. at ti mes most convenient to
our clients. We are proud of the quality of the service we provide in difficult circumstances and
believe that we make a real difference to many lives. Our overall client satisfaction score is 8.9
out of10. We continue to provide subsidised counselling to clients depending on their household
income. This year we have subsidised 1,776 (59%) of sessions. providing clients with access to
support that may otherwise have been unavailable to them. The charitys bursary scheme
continues to be of significant benefit to those Clients suffering severe financial hardship and
both Trustees and management are agreed that this provision should continue.
We undertook 13% more ¢ounseLLing sessions than the previous year and demand for our
¢ounseLling services continues to be high. particularly as NHS waiting Lists grow in our area.
Our responses to this are to maximise the number of client sessions available with our existing
resources as welL as to grow our capacity going forward. We have been delighted to work the
Droitwich, OmbersLey and Rurals Primary Care Network to provide counseLLing to patients
referred from their GPS.
Trustees have continued to invest in the training of new Relate counsellors by sponsoring the
tuition fees of Relate courses, as well as utilising grant funding from our generous supporters.
This is an important part of strategic business planning to build capacity and provide succession
pLanning for our workforce. We currently have six counsellors undertaking the Relate level 5
training course who are on placement within our Centre. and we pian to continue this annuaLIy.
Personnel
Our service is reliant on an engaged and enthusiastic work force. All members of our counselling
team are highly qualified and are registered annually on the Relate National Practitioner Register.
We are e4er grateful to them. to our administrative team, and to our voLunteers for the provision
of a safe. high quality, client focused counseliing service. We welcome too our latest intake of
newly trained counsellors, recruited so we Can expand our services and improve our reach into
the community.
Thanks must aLso go to our CEO, Maxlne Sharman for her tireless efforts to grow and improve
the charity. The Trustees fully support her continuing efforts to ensure the charity's future and
successfuL provision of services.

Relate Severn and Wye
(prevlously known as Relat• Worcestsrshlrn)
Report of the Trustees
For the year ended 31st March 2024
In addition, Relate Severn and Wye is very fortunate in the number of volunteers who provide
counselLing services and reception cover free of charge. The volunteers make a much-valued
contribution to the charity's operations, and we thank them for their support.
The Trustee team meet monthly to react to changing circumstances. making strategic plans to
safeguard our future operations. We have strengthened the Board this year with new members
who have additional skiLLs to help us through these changing times. We have also increased
our diversity of Trustees with their ages spanning six decades. I would like to take this
opportunity to thank my Trustee colleagues past and present for alL their work and wouLd like
to make a speciaL mention of Benedict CoLeman who retired this year. after more than a de¢ade
of loyal service.
nanckl Review
The charity remains in a strong position. TotaL funds as at 31 March 2024 being £93,629,
compared to £107,567 as at 31 March 2023.
Total income in the 12 month5 to March 2024 was £281.128 {2023: £249.361) split £227.581 of
unrestricted income and £53.547 of restricted income. The £31.767 increase in total income since
2023 was largely as a result of a rise in counselting fee income received of £46.TTO, although this
was partly offset by a redurtion in grant income of £25.867.
Total expenditure in the year ended March 2024 was £294,329 (2023: £255.115) split £235,282 of
unrestricted expenditure and £59,047 of restricted expenditure. The increase in expenditure
through the year refLects the increased number of counselling sessions provided and the return
to fa¢e-to-fa¢e sessions in more outreach sessions, following the expansion of the charity into
Gloucestershire.
The overall result for the year is a net deficit of £13,938 (2023: £8,382).
Princlpal Fundlng Sources
The principal funding sources during the year were fees charged to ctients for counselling
seNices and service contracts for counselling services provided. In addition, the charity is very
grateful for the support of local and national grant-making trusts. In particular. the support and
generosity of the Sanctuary Group for the provision of the Worcester premises at a peppercorn
rent
Reserves Pollcy
The strategy agreed by the Trustees is to maintain an unrestricted reserve fund equivalent to
approximatelythree months, expenditure. The charity's general unrestricted reserve5. excluding
fixed assets. was £53.987 as at 31 March 2024 (2023: £50.077), representing approximately 2.7
months of unrestricted expenditure. The stated strategy has therefore not quite been achieved
this year. Included in unrestricted funds is a designated Winding Up Fund in order to ring fence
funds to cover the cost of redundancy and lease termination costs in the event of the charity
winding up. The balance of this designated fund {incLuding an investment valued at £39.642)
was £51.790 (2023: £51,790).
Total unrestricted reserves as at 31 March 2024 were £93,629 (2023: £102,067) to include an
investment valued at £39.642 at the year end.
Total restricted funds as at 31 March 2024 were £niL (2,023: £5.500).

Report of the Trustees
For the year ended 31st March 2024
Future Developments
The Trustees have determined through the annual planning process. that the charity should
continue to aim for breakeven. However. it is most important that our services be open to all
and that we continue to invest in additionaL ¢ounseLling capacity. Having established a strong
platform for future deveLopment. there are plans to train more new counsellors and increase
our capacity in providing a much-needed service across Worcestershire. Herefordshire and
Gioucestershire.
I conclude this report by giving thanks to my fellow Trustees for their support and advice and
on behaLf of the Trustees. I wish to thank all our counsellors. supervisors. trainers,
administration colleagues and voLunteers. without whom the Charity would be unable to
function.
