## **1:1 Counselling**
Before the 1:1 sessions begin, an initial assessment is conducted to understand the issues clients face (i.e. any potential financial, domestic, bereavement, and/or employment stressors) and how Roshni Ghar can better support them. Clients then receive 6 weekly 1:1 support sessions where they can explore issues impacting their mental health in a safe, supportive, and non-judgemental setting. There is no limit to what can be discussed and as the sessions are client-led and happen at a pace the client is comfortable with.
Between April 2021 – March 2022, Roshni Ghar supported 437 adult and young women with their mental health and wellbeing needs; of these 321 were provided 1:1 support with their mental ill health and during times of crisis. A total of 3655 sessions of 1:1 support were provided.
Roshni Ghar received 171 new referrals.
After the 1:1 support, clients are encouraged to attend weekly wellbeing support groups, as part of their ongoing recovery and to promote positive wellbeing, clients are encouraged to manage their wellbeing through selfcare, with a focus on relapse prevention.
## **Support Groups**
## **Umeed (Hope) Group**
Umeed (Hope) group consists of support for clients with acute mental ill health needs, who are under secondary care services. This small group offers structured therapeutic activities and support, designed to meet the needs of each individual client due to their acute mental ill health needs. This group provides a quiet atmosphere for individuals who struggle with busy and noisy environments due to acute mental ill health. We work closely with primary and secondary care services to support women at their most vulnerable.
## **Being Creative with Hive**
The organisation Hive has been working in partnership with Roshni Ghar for several years and has supported the Umeed Group with the delivery of arts and crafts sessions, these were greatly received by service users.

## **In-Reach Services**
The In-reach Support Service is a drop-in service offering 1:1 emotional support to female (South Asian) inpatients sectioned under the Mental Health Act and admitted to the Heather Ward (psychiatric unit) at the Airedale General Hospital. This support service has been running for 6 years and is valued with positive feedback from both clients and staff at the Heather Ward. To ensure continuity of care we support women in the community post-discharge from the Psychiatric unit. We work closely with staff from Community Mental Health Team at Meridian House (Bradford District Care Trust) and other specialist mental health teams. When a referral comes through from their service, we carry out joint home visits and do regular follow up with the clients CPN. This partnership helps improve communication, identify barriers, and improve access in to mainstream services for women from predominantly South Asian communities.
## **Carer wellbeing group**
Carers often neglect their own health and wellbeing as they are focused and busy caring for others. Roshni Ghar’s Carer’s Wellbeing Group was developed as the service recognised that it is important for carers to look after their own health (both physical and emotional) and to make time for themselves. The group is user-led and is facilitated by Roshni Ghar support workers who are carers themselves or have lived experiences of caring responsibilities.
The Carer’s Wellbeing Group meets on a fortnightly basis at the request of the carers. It is an opportunity for carers to connect with others in a similar situation, whilst accessing support for their own mental health and wellbeing needs. The group provides carers a safe and non-judgemental environment to offload and seek advice on issues relevant to them and build a network of support for themselves.
Caring for a loved with additional needs can be very isolating, and the Carer’s Wellbeing Group meets regularly where carers can regularly meet one another, gain support, gather information as well as have time away from their daily caring roles. The group has enjoyed taking part in Tai Chi, mindful walks, beauty courses, ‘Create and Connect’ art sessions and much more. Getting involved in something different has helped the carers stay well both physically and mentally. The Roshni Ghar Carer’s Group also runs day trips to places of interest such as the escape room and Bolton Abbey.
## Feedback from Carers:
_‘This group was needed in the community. I can feel alone when caring for my son and coming to the group helps me receive peer support, engage in activities to take my mind off my caring responsibilities and receive useful information’._
_‘I make sure I take the time to attend the group. It is the one place where I feel accepted and not pitied and judged’._

## **Gup Shup (Chit Chat) Group**
Due to many clients having underlying health conditions, some members of the group met virtually through WhatsApp on a weekly basis. Many of the clients accessing this support group have multiple health conditions and were having to shield for long periods of time. The safest way to offer support was through virtual means, WhatsApp being the preferred method for many clients. Other clients accessed face to face support whilst maintaining social distancing and wearing face coverings for their safety.
It was important for clients to keep busy and interact with others to reduce social isolation and maintain good mental health. The group has continued face to face sessions in the community since restrictions have been lifted and is running successfully. The sessions are led by the WEA (Workers’ Educational Association) which is a charity dedicated to bringing high-quality, professional education into the heart of communities and provide a qualified tutor who delivers the sessions with the support of RG staff. Service users have been involved in the planning of the sessions and have been consulted on what they would like to try. Service users with underling health conditions continue to participate in the face-to-face sessions on a regular basis which has contributed to supporting and improving their health and wellbeing.

## **WhatsApp Support Group**
The exercise group started through the lockdown for service users who wanted some sort of normality and motivation to keep active and healthy and it has continued. The sessions are led by a qualified instructor and has adjusted the session to meet the needs of the service users. As there was a demand for the group two 1hr groups were set up and gave the women an opportunity to attend the sessions.
The sessions are still taking place service users who have mobility problems have continued to participate in the sessions on video call and have commented that it has improved their health and wellbeing.
Service user comment RA “I like attending, the Tutor is good, and she talks us through the exercise”. NH “I would like to continue WhatsApp as I enjoy the session, I find it difficult to attend face to face sessions due to mobility and health issues”.
The WhatsApp group has 5-6 ladies on each group service users have attended regularly, due to easing of lockdown restrictions RG introduced face to face sessions to encourage service users back into the community settings as they were wanting face-to-face sessions RG decided to meet the needs of the service users and face-to-face group was set up which is taking place at the Civic Centre on a Wednesday afternoon through the Dekh Baal group which has a good attendance of 15+ service users.

## **Culturally Sensitive Counselling Support Service-Group therapy**
Due to barriers in accessing appropriate counselling as highlighted by some of the women we support, Roshni Ghar developed a bespoke Culturally appropriate counselling service to meet the needs of its clients. The Culturally Sensitive Counselling Support Service involves both one-to-one counselling support and group therapy. From April 2021 – March 2022, 97 clients received 1:1 culturally appropriate counselling consisting of 670 sessions. The group therapy sessions are designed and delivered using a client-centred approach by a trained psychotherapist supported by Roshni Ghar staff. The sessions have covered different topics such as bereavement, grief and loss, learned helplessness, and behaviour change.
The sessions centre on identifying and changing inaccurate or distorted thinking patterns, responses and behaviours and provides psychoeducation focusing on educating clients about their mental health issues and ways of coping. The sessions are delivered in the client’s spoken language with special consideration to religious and cultural needs. The setting is accessible and supportive and has created a safe space for clients to openly share and discuss their issues.
The therapy sessions have also helped clients receive support and encouragement from other members of the group and by participating in the group, this has allowed the members to see that others are going through similar experiences which has helped them to feel less alone. Feedback from clients has been positive and they have reported that they have learnt appropriate coping strategies to help manage their mental health and have found the sessions beneficial to their wellbeing.
## **Collaborative Work**
Roshni Ghar is part of the Wellness Collaborative scheme to help BDCT reduce their waiting time for people waiting for additional support.

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards.
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which 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 the year.

state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
