**ANAH PROJECT LTD TRUSTEES’ REPORT** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**_
## **Meetings**
The Trustees hold management meetings every six weeks. Additional sub-group meetings are also held to look at specific areas of the business to action, which include Trustees who have specialisms in those areas. Sub-group members consist of Trustees and the Management Team of Anah.
Sub-group members report their findings to the full Board of Trustees for approval.
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to risks, including the sustainability of the project.
## **Objectives and Activities**
The charity’s objective are to support single/lone Black and Minoritised Women and Girls who have suffered domestic abuse.
Anah undertakes the following in furtherance of our objective:
- provides temporary refuge for Black and Minoritised Women and Girls subjected to physical, psychological and emotional abuse;
- empowers each woman in shaping her own future and assisting her in attaining her aspirations, be it through education, a return to her home or embarking on a new resettlement journey; and
- offers support and provides essential information to Black and Minoritised Women and Girls seeking assistance and/or experiencing homelessness. Our commitment extends to offering ongoing support to women and girls who have transitioned out of our refuge.
The referral criteria for women seeking accommodation at the refuge is as follows:
- 16 years of age or over
- Single/lone and from Black, Asian and Ethnic Minority origin
- Fleeing physical, sexual, emotional, psychological abuse or forced marriage
The location of the refuge remains anonymous in order to ensure the safety of the Service Users as well as all members of staff.
## **Achievements and performance**
Anah strives itself on being a ‘by and for’ women-led organisation that share the same lived experiences and protected characteristics as the women we serve.
We have continued to expand our online reach, which in turn has led us to become increasingly recognised for being a specialist organisation that supports women from minoritised communities. We recognise the importance of leveraging digital platforms to engage with our stakeholders and share our success stories whilst still maintaining controls around confidentiality. This has led us to take advantage of unique funding opportunities and provide specialist sessions to public-sector agencies. Not only does that build on our organisational strength in terms of sustainability but it also raises the awareness of the services we offer.
We continue to provide a pivotal role in prevention and awareness of domestic abuse - for example, the provision of sessions to children in schools. We have noticed that the increase in awareness-raising on domestic abuse has been reflected in an increase in self-reporting from women themselves. The community engagement work continues to be nothing short of remarkable. Raising awareness has played a significant role in fostering a generational shift in attitudes towards domestic abuse.

## **ANAH PROJECT LTD**
## **TRUSTEES’ REPORT** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**_
Women with no recourse to public funds often find themselves falling through the gaps but Anah Project prides itself on supporting such women, who often find themselves increasingly isolated. Our commitment and model to empower hard-to-reach women and girls in closed communities has led to inspiring others to create and deliver similar initiatives.
Anah Project uses a multifaceted approach in terms of the support we provide, which has been vital in survivor recovery and resilience. Anah Project is so proud of the women and girls who overcome adversity, realise their potential and begin to thrive.
To celebrate Anah’s 30-year anniversary, service users created and performed a domestic abuse mime play, drawing from their own lived experiences and showcasing how far they have come in their individual journeys. Many of the women involved in this could not speak English when they first approached Anah, however our involvement with community theatre and art therapies has given women a new outlet to express themselves, use their voice and give back to the wider community.
## **Public Benefit**
Anah is addressing a pressing social issue and providing a lifeline to women in need by helping them escape abusive situations and allowing them to begin the process of healing and recovery. By doing this, we are contributing to a safer and healthier environment for women, girls and estranged children. Ultimately, empowered women and girls are more likely to become active, engaged citizens who can positively contribute to society.
Anah Project’s community-prevention work helps raise awareness and therefore prevent long-term physical and psychological harm to women and children. This, in turn, reduces the potential burden on public healthcare and social services. This also helps break the cycle of domestic abuse and opens up dialogue about this issue within Black and Ethnic Minoritised communities and facilitates social cohesion.
We have established impactful alliances and collaborations with local Non-Government Organisations, government agencies, and academic institutions. This in turn amplifies our impact. This, in tandem with our advocacy and lobbying efforts, influences government policies that address the systemic issues affecting female marginalised communities.
## **Risk Management**
At the Anah Project, our commitment to robust risk management and control measures is an integral part of our governance practices. These measures are regularly reviewed and updated during Board meetings, with a particular focus on financial, reputational, and organisational risks. Additionally, the Board diligently assesses risks associated with staff recruitment, retention, stress, and staff health and wellbeing. One example of this is through regular staff supervision by Management and Trustees.
Safeguarding is of paramount importance and the project's location remains hidden to ensure the physical and emotional safety of the women we serve, creating a fear-free and secure living environment. Anah also regularly monitors our online safety to ensure we are not putting women at risk.
Like many charities, one of Anah's key risks, exacerbated by the challenges posed by the Cost-of-Living Crisis, is long-term sustainability. To address this, our business plan and strategic development initiatives are aimed at diversifying income streams and enhancing financial resilience, allowing us to plan for the future. Our strong online presence, service user involvement and survivor advocacy serve as a proactive measure to stay relevant to the women and girls we serve while expanding our reach.
The Board of Trustees comprises a ‘by and for’ highly skilled and well-trained Management Team, wellversed in governance, safeguarding, and health and safety practices. We conduct periodic skills audits to assess our strengths and areas for development, allowing us to identify training and development needs proactively. All Board members have undergone training in governance principles, in collaboration with Women's Aid, which has strengthened our commitment to effective and informed governance.

## **TRUSTEES’ REPORT** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**_
## **Financial Review**
The Statement of Financial Activities (page 7) reflects a deficit for the year of £74,664 (2023 surplus of £82,177).
At the end of this financial year restricted reserves amounted to £54,414 and except for the Shama funded support (£34,913) this money is committed to be spent by 31 March 2025.
Unrestricted reserves at the end of this financial year amount to £295,376.
Current funding (restricted) has been secured until 2024, if however, any financial difficulties were to occur then reserves of £138,822 are available. The Trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charities current activities whilst consideration is given to ways in which funds may be raised or activities changed. The unrestricted reserves not designated for specific purposes stood at £156,554 on 31 March 2024.
As part of this policy, the level of reserves will be calculated and monitored every 6 – 12 months by the CEO, Finance Manager and the Board of Directors.
This policy will be reviewed annually or sooner should the need arise.
## **Plans for future periods**
Anah continues to look at diversifying and developing income streams to ensure that our services can be sustainable.
Anah has come to realise that our potential does not stop at housing women, but our strength is in also undertaking preventative work and increasing awareness online and across different platforms. Awareness-raising feeds into the ability to make an impact on the political, social and the legal landscape when it comes to Domestic Abuse, which we are starting to see more and more with the enactment of the Domestic Abuse Act and an increase in social awareness of the different forms of Domestic Abuse.

## **Statement of Trustees Responsibilities**
The Trustees of Anah Project Ltd are responsible for preparing the Trustees Report and accounts in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the Trustees to prepare accounts for each financial year. Under company law the Trustees must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these accounts the Trustees are required to:-
- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
- make judgements that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the accounts; and
- prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose at anytime the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006, and the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
This report was approved by the board of Trustees on 23 October 2024

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF ANAH PROJECT LTD**
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2024, which are set out on pages 7 to 17.
## **Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner**
The Trustees, who also act as Directors for the purposes of company law, are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under Section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011, (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination it is my responsibility to:
- (i) examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
- (ii) to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
- (iii) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **Basis of Independent Examiner’s report**
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as Trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a “true and fair view” and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
## **Independent Examiner’s statement**
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
- (a) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
- (i) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
- (ii) to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities;
have not been met; or
- (b) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**_
## 1. **Accounting policies**

Hostel rents and service charges are recognised in the accounts when receivable.
