h. Prlnclpal actlvltles
Leewavs principal activities are to provide temporary accommodation and other services to adults and children
who are subject to Domestic Violence and Abuse.
Improving the health and wellbeing of adults and children using the seprflce.
Promoting empowerment and self-detennlnation for adults, children and young people using the service.
Keeping the needs of seNice users central to serV￿a delivery and ensuring sep4ices evolve to meet
changing needs.
Developing diverse sepiices to meet the needs of diverse communities.
Providing tailored services that meet the specific needs of children and young peopl•.
Sharing best practice and to promote effective multi-agency worf(ing.
Educating and raising awareness throughout Society that domestic abuse is not acceptable.
Plans for future porfods
Leeway is a welkposltioned voluntary organi8ation. The current business plan addresses many of the
opportunities and challenges facing Leeway in the near future. There is likely to be increased use of
eommissionlng as a way of delivering services in the future and we can expect increased competition for funds.
Despite this we will continue to put the people we serve at the heart of our work and ensure that any contracts
are fully funded by the commissioners. Some of Leeway's contracts are ending, and as yet. we are unsure of
what fomiat any re-tenders will take. We will continue lo work wrth commissioners, helplng them shape seNices
to meet the identified needs that we see on a daily basis. Leeway will work to increase awareness of domestic
violence and abuse and promote Leeway's 6eNices. To enable us to do this we will expand our trading activities
to maximise income.
Geographlcal ¢ov•r4ge - Different local authorities have different approaches to commissioning and to d•llv•ry
of services. At this stage it seems sensible to concentrate mainly on expanding and sustaining Norfolk services
as a priority and building on our Suffolk services when funding opportunities become available. Growth across
the counties will enable Leeway to deliver the required domestic violencelabuse services for service user8
and to allow the organisation to build greater capacity. This will allow Leeway to share central costs across mr)re
services. thus making us 8 more cost-effective service provider. It will also enable us to offer value for money
services in an extremely competrtive environment. However. a realistic approach to providing pilot and short4errn
projects ne8ds to be recognised across the organisation. and so sadly some seNices may not continue once the
funding ends. Our specialist domestic abuse training can be delivered both locally and nationally our plans are to
expand and develop this service in the future.

Govemm•nt Agenda - We are aware that there will be an impact as a ￿sUIt of Local Govemment changes and
locality cornmissioning changes. So, we continue:
Making links with County Council directors, portfolio holders and GPS.
Working with local authorities to meet domestic violence targets.
Campaigning on Welfare reforms and issues that may have an impact upon the organisation or Leeway
serrfice users etc.
Promotlon & marketlng of tha oryanlsatlon .- Given our extensiv• experience in both ¢ommis8ioning and
providing seriices, it is important that Leeway 18 fully engaged with ongoing and potential new initiatives with
commissioners. This means ensuring Leewarfs representation at key meetings. However, there is also the
development of informal nelworks and support of newer projects local authorities may be considering - e.g. pilot
projects. The staff are trained to actively promote the core values and mission of the organisation and to ensure
that our work and the need for it, is fully understood by everyone in the nelworks we work with. This is Separate
from the function of the marketing and sustainability role which focuses on raising awareness of the
organisetlonal brand within the local community to generate funds.
Servlco user Involvement - Developing service user involvement is an important strand of our work. Historically
service users have always been involved in the development of Leeway's services. We work with service users
in a way that enables them to develop and have control of the support we provide. We continue to devekjp
seNice user forums so that service users can be actively involved in the organisation and influence the way we
develop seNices. This work is refiected in our qualty a8se8sment framework for Adutt Social Care.
Infomiatlon on fundralslng practlc••
Leeway employs a fundraising and events officer, for which the Board sets an annual fundraising target to
achieve to support the charitls activitoes. We do not engage with professional fundraisers. We ensure that we
follow Charity Commission guidance and that all fundr8i3ing is clearly documented and accounted for. No
complaints have been received by the charity, or a person acting on its behalf. in relation to fundraising.
Leeway ensures that we do not contsct people directly for money or other property. we advertise through our

assessed risks; and to respond appropriately to instances of fraud or suspected fraud Identified during the audit.
However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both management and
those charged with govemance of the charitable Company.
Our approach wa$ as follows:
W6 obtained an understanding of tho legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the charitable
Company and considered that the most signrfic8nt are the Cornpanies Act 2006, the Charitles Act 2011. the
Charty SORP, and UK financial reporting standards as issued by the Financial Reporting Council.
We obtained an understanding of how the charitable Company complies with these requirements by
discu88ion8 With management and those charged with govemance.
We assessed the risk of material misstatement of the financial ststements, induding the risk of Material
misslatement due to fraud and how it might occur, by holding di8CUS8ions with management and those
charged with govemance.
We inquired of management and those charged with governance as to any known instances of non-
compliance or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations.
Based on this understanding, we designed specific appropriate audit prO￿dureS to ￿entty instances of
noncompliance with laws and regulats'ons. This included making enquiries of management and those charged
with govemance and obtaining additional corroborative evidence as required.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit. there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities. including
those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or norFcompliance with regulation. This risk
increases the more that compliance with a law or ￿gulatIOn is removed from the events and transactions
refiected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instan￿$ of non-compliance.
The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error. as fraud involves
intentional concealment. forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentstion.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
General Informatlon
Leeway Dornestic Violence & Abuse Servi￿$ ('Ihe charitable Companrf,) is a private company limited by
guarantee and incorporated in England and Wales, registration number 03208084.
Accountlng pollcles
2.1 8a818 of prnparatlon of flnanclal stat•monts
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP {FRS 102)
Accounting and Reporting by Charities: St8t8ment of Recommended PraCt￿e applicable to charities
preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK
and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard
applicabl8 in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
The financial statements are presented in Sterling (£), the charitable Companls functlonal currency,
and have been rounded to the near88t £.
Leeway Domestic Violence & Abuse SeNices meets the definition of a public benellt entlty under
FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless
otheNiise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
2.2 Golng concorn
The Trustees are confident that the charitable Company can continue its successful track record of
securing th8 funds needed to support its valuable work. This will be achieved by the Senior managers
and fundraising team apptying for grants and donations. The charitable Cc*npany's annual budgets
end fundraising log demonstrate how the incorne will be raised to meet all the charitable expendiutr8
and support costs as they fall due. The Trustees therefore consider it appropriate to prepare the
financial statements on the going concern basis.
2.3 Income
All income is recognised once the charitable Company has entitlement to the income. it is probable
that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured ￿lIablY.
The recognition of income from legacies is dependent on establishing entitlement, the probabilty of
receipt and the abilty to estimate with sufficient accuracy the amount receivable. Evidence of
entitlement to a legacy exists when the charitable Company has sufficient evidence that a gift has
been left to them (through knowledge of the existence of a valid will and the death of the benefactor)
and the executor is satisfied that the propety in question will not be required to satisfy claims in the
estate. Receipt of a legacy must be recognised when it is probable that it will be received and the fair
value of the amount receivable, which will generally be the expected cash amount to be distributed to
the charitable Company, can be reliably measured.
Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment
income is recetvable.

the institution with whom the funds are deposited.
2.6 Tanglble flxed assets and depreclation
Tangible fixed assets costing £100 or more ar8 capitalised and recognised when futur6 economic
benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset Can b• measured reliably.
Tangible f￿•d assets are Inttlally recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost modal, tanglble
fixed assets ar• measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impaimient
