## Achievements: 

Liverpool City Council (CRG) - Granby Somali Women's Group with its funding from  Liverpool City  Council (CRU) continues to offer a twice weekly drop-in service for Muslim women and those affected by health issues. The aim of the project is to enable Muslim women to feel less isolated and improve their quality of life by interacting with others from within the community and receiving assistance with their health issues. The sessions are targeted at those who are isolated and secluded from mainstream provision and outcomes centre on building new friendships, gain knowledge and insight into the range of activities available within the community and centre and being the first port of contact to address health issues.  The women involved are isolated, face a language barrier, and  are  in  desperate  need  of  increasing  their  confidence  and  selfesteem. 

National Lottery Community Fund - GSWG was able to secure funding from the National Lottery Community Fund for ‘our voices’ project. Our Voices aims to build upon existing awareness raising campaigns around the issues of FGM and sexual misconduct by providing direct support to those affected, giving them a voice against harmful practices. We have developed extensive experience of delivering and co-delivering services, advice, and support to individuals from our communities who are directly affected by these practices helping individuals to come to terms with and overcome mental and physical health related issues within supportive environments  that  we  provide.  By  incorporating  FGM  and  sexual harassment/misconduct  discussions into  other  messages  which  might include  a  wider  range  of  health  issues  (e.g.,  sexual  health,  mental 

**GSWG** 



health) and into the wider social, recreational and support services that GSWG also provides, we will ensure that individuals get the support that they need in an appropriate and non-pressured way and increase their social connections through ongoing engagement. This project is now in its second year and during the pandemic, GSWG was able to adapt its services to continue to deliver the “our voices” project to the community using a range of platforms. 

PCC Sexual Violence Fund – This project continues to reach women and girls affected by Female Genital Mutilation (FGM). This harmful practice requires specialist grassroots interventions, which enable participants to explore their views on the practice and how it affects women’s health, confidence, and life detrimentally and the consequences of enacting this harmful practice on girls situated in the UK. The project also provides men with the opportunity to voice and challenge their opinions on FGM. Sessions  with  males,  has  enabled  them  to  debate  the  impact  this practice has on their families and what actions are required by males to end  FGM.  The  support  provided  by  GSWG  includes  preferences  for individual or group support and designated services for children and young people. 

HAF  Funding: Funding  from  Holiday  Activities  and  Food  Program  has enabled GSWG to offer a range of activities to children in Princes Park region in receipt of free school meals through holiday periods. Due to the cost-of-living crisis, many parents or carers have been unable to feed their children during the holiday periods or get their children involved in activities, as they don’t have the money to cover these costs. However, funding from the HAF program, has enabled families most in need to let 

**GSWG** 



their children to be engaged in positive play during the holiday periods and  receive  free  nutritious  meals  and  snacks.  This  project  has  let children to learn about the importance of health eating, reduce social isolation, get activity, and eat healthy during the school holiday periods. Without this HAF funding many children from low incomes would go hungry and be lonely, this project has enabled these children to change their  current  situations,  improve  their  metal  health,  wellbeing  and develop new skills, new experiences and just have fun. 

Additional Funders: GSWG would like to thank all its additional funders and  small  pot  funders  like  Community  Foundation  for  Merseyside, Daneway Foundation,  Ann &  Ray Messer fund,  Dulverton Trust,  Rosa Fund  etc  which  enabled  the  Charity  to  cater  to  the  needs  of  its community. Without any of this funding, GSWG would not have been able to provide a range of services, which met the needs of not only its services  users  but  the  wider  community  and  enable  this  frontline organisation  to  continue  to  provide  a  service,  when  many  statutory services  have  been  unable  to  due  to  the  current  situation  that  the country finds itself in. GSWG would like to take the opportunity to thank all its funds but especially those who were able to provide sustainability to the charity during these unprecedented times, as every penny counts and makes a difference to those, we all serve. 

Challenges for 2023: The challenges facing GSWG for 2023 will be the cost-of-living crisis and the ongoing fallout of the pandemic. The increase in the cost of living has led to an increase in demand for the services the charity offers which is in correlation with a decrease in funding for the charity sector. GSWG service users and the country are facing increases in bills (especially energy bills) and spiralling inflation with a lack of 

**GSWG** 



employment opportunities. The organisation itself will contend with rising running costs and the ability to run projects. 

To combat this GSWG will continue to strive to stay sustainable and prioritise its projects and services.  With the goal of long-term funding and linking with other local charities to work out collaborative ways to support people through the crisis. Strong financial management and collaboration will be the way the organisation will face these challenges head on. The charity will also explore all possible options for income generation bar funding, to continue to serve those most in need. 

Reserves: The Charity aims to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the free reserves of the charity, at a level adequate to meet its needs. 

Risk Management: The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, those related to the operations and finances of the  charity  and  are  satisfied  that  systems  are  in  place  to  mitigate exposure to the major risks. This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. 

Granby Somali Women’s Group and its service users appreciate all the support and assistance they have received from Funders and would like to say a big thank you to them for the support and funds, which enable us to provide worthwhile projects to our service users and the wider community.
