REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH 2023

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives

We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities.

How our activities deliver public benefit

= The refuge accommodation is available to any wotnan and her children flecing domestic violence regardless of geographical location and ability to pay but priority is given to residents in North East Lincolnshire. We try to accommodate women with no recourse to public funds, but this is restricted according to our fundraising income available. This accommodation, together with the full-time daily support offered, improves the health and wellbeing of the residents, increases their safety and security and enables independent lifestyles and improves economic well-being.

We provided an excellent service during the year to the children in the refuge who have been exposed to domestic violence through the provision of Children’s workers. This service is available to all children who live in the refuge but unfortunately, we mainly rely on income from our own fundraising efforts to provide these posts. The benefit they provide to these children in terms of the aims of improving health and wellbeing, developing learning and positive achievement and enabling positive contribution are therefore reliant on continually seeking alternative forms of funding.

The Outreach Services are only available to residents of North East Lincolnshire due to restrictions of our funders — North East Lincolnshire Council Housing Related Support . However, similar services are available in other regions of the country. Our Outreach service was established and expanded in recognition of the fact that not all those who have experienced domestic abuse wish to live in a refuge and therefore support is offered in the community. These projects meet the aims of improving health and well-being, increasing safety and security, developing learning and positive achievement, enabling positive contribution, enabling independent lifestyle and improving economic well-being.

Our Drop-In facilities and on-line support are available to anyone experiencing domestic abuse and this advice and guidance is available to increase the safety and security of those using these services and thereby should improve their health and well-being.

Fundraising activities alone enable the facilities in the Women’s Centre to be provided. The Women’s Centre provides a welcoming and friendly environment for women to get advice and information. It is available to ALL women in North East Lincolnshire. It is recognised that women-only spaces provide a safe place for women to develop learning and positive achievement where they feel more safe and secure. Other agencies provide services and advice sessions within the Centre thus maximising inter-agency working, One particular project that has continued for some of this year has been women’s probation services. This includes interviews, support sessions and support groups for women who have offended or are at risk of offending. We continually strive to raise awareness of domestic abuse in North East Lincolnshire. We aim to increase awareness in all sectors of society in the hope that we can improve the lives and safety of victims and children affected by domestic abuse. This is done by delivering training, networking and inter-agency working.

We are developing a portfolio of affordable, quality, social housing in North East Lincolnshire for survivors of domestic abuse who are marginalised in the housing market. Some of these properties were previously long-term empty homes,

.

All of these services can only be provided by maintaining a quality service with a firm financial foundation.

Strategies and activities that contributed to achieving these objectives

Refuge

The refuge building continues to provide 15 units of very secure 24-hour emergency accommodation (although 16 to 17 women can be accommodated if flats are shared), This arrangement supports the requirements of refuge provision based on the number of people resident in North East Lincolnshire.

We continue to have a high demand for the services that are offered through North East Lincolnshire Women’s Aid. A quality service is provided by the refuge staff including a Support Manager who supervises and supports both refuge support staff and outreach workers.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR

ENDED 31st MARCH 2023

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Strategies and activities that contributed to achieving these objectives

Children

Women’s Aid receives no core funding for Children’s Services and as such is mainly dependent on fund raising and donations to sustain this element of its service. These funds along with the income from our shops hasenabledustoemploy three part time staff from July 2022 (previously two part time staff) for the Hideout (the children’s area). We continue to be grateful to our fundraisers for their support in raising funds to pay for the services we offer the children in the refuge.

__.

Outreach

Women’s Aid provides an Outreach service. The Outreach Workers offer support to women and men who are either unable to, or do not wish to come into the refuge. Drop-In sessions including sessions at GP surgeries have been established over the last few years, which are now funded through our own revenue streams,

Fundraising and Income Generation

Fundraising is always a priority for us, as the organisation is heavily reliant on additional funding to subsidise the delivery of our services, Our retail income remains critical to the ongoing delivery of our refuge services, offering us valuable, regular income generation. Retaining and recruiting volunteers remains a challenge but a new marketing campaign has helped promote volunteer opportunities and seen some good results. In March 2023 we took tenancy of new shop premises on the Willows Estate adding another fundraising venture fo our portfolio of shops. Ebay sales and Gift Aid are also helping to draw in more income to help fund our services.

Women’s Centre

The Centre is funded by fundraising income and a small amount of income from room hire and would not be in existence otherwise. The facility is staffed by a volunteer reception team and used to deliver training and events and to provide drop-in services as well as generating a small income from renting out office space. Some Women’s Aid core staff are based in the centre. Activities and courses are delivered in the centre including the Freedom programme and a Self Esteem course mostly paid for through fundraising.

Raise Awareness of Domestic Abuse

We continue to: build good relationships with stakeholder agencies; be involved with the Domestic Abuse Strategic Group; update domestic abuse literature and online information; and contribute to our local Strategy. These all help in raising awareness of domestic abuse in North East Lincolnshire. We deliver six domestic abuse training sessions to our local safeguarding team, and local agencies/practitioners who are looking to raise awareness within their organisations. We also help to deliver Humberside Police ‘Domestic Abuse Matters’ training when requested. Our workshops are all accredited by CPD with 2.5 points of learning. We have our own website that allows people to join a mailing list to receive information on domestic abuse. We also developed a Practitioner Resource page on our website in partnership with North East Lincolnshire Council.

The Freedom Programme is now being delivered 2 sessions per week. This is a life enhancing opportunity for women both inside and outside of our services which enables them to make positive choices for their future. It is a twelye-week rolling programme; clients can self-refer or be referred by anyone else. We also deliver awareness sessions for agency staff which are always extremely popular. Charges for Freedom awareness days go towards Freedom programme for clients’ costs, We also deliver a 12-week programme after Freedom, called ‘Own My Life’; this programme explores self-esteem, selfworth and self-belief and rebuilding a new future after the abuse. Similarly, feedback to this programme is rated ‘excellent’.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH 2023

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Strategies and activities that contributed to achieving these objectives

Volunteers

Women’s Aid is hugely dependent on its volunteers who mostly work within its shops. A new marketing strategy was introduced during the year with support from a small marketing company and has helped recruit new volunteers to the organisation. Our volunteer teams remain a valuable asset to the organisation and we continue to be grateful to all those giving their time up to volunteer for us.

It is estimated that in 2022/2023 Tiverton Street shop volunteers provided a service valued at 6,650 hours representing £63,175 in wages, if it had been paid work. The Hainton Avenue Shop provided 14,798 volunteer hours in total valued at £140,581 in wages, the Nunsthorpe shop provided 3,264 volunteer hours valued at £31,008 in wages and the new Willows shop from March 2023 provided 396 volunteer hours valued at £3,762. Committee members worked for 150 hours valued at £1,425. In addition, there were 384 hours provided by Ebay volunteers valued at £3,648 and also 2,062 hours provided by Refuge and Women’s Centre volunteers valued at £19,589. Our total volunteer hours were 27,704 which equates to £263,188 of unpaid work. The volunteers are the backbone of the organisation and we continue to be very grateful to all who work for us on this basis,

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable Activities

The main areas of charitable activity are the provision of:

:

Corporate Partnership Programme

We introduced a Corporate Partnership programme including an Ambassadors scheme which has attracted commercial businesses to collaborate and partner us allowing them to exercise their philanthropic values, and ethos of 'giving back’. More information can be found on our website,

Internal and External Factors

The organisation is currently awaiting the launch of the next tender opportunity to continue to deliver its Women’s Aid services. The outcome of the tender exercise will impact on our ability to deliver our strategy.

Our Housing Development Project is progressing well and we now have 13 properties. All our refurbished properties are currently rented out and there is high demand for more housing. We have been able to access Empty Homes grants from North East Lincolnshire Council to support some of the refurbishment costs of our properties.

Page 6

NORTH EAST LINCOLNSHIRE WOMEN'S AID

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH 2023

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Internal and External Factors

A Referral Support Worker post was partly funded during the year through the Humberside Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner’s C19 Emergency Fund. It is now funded by North East Lincolnshire Council. The post holder is the point of contact in Women’s Aid for taking police referrals, which has been found to be very effective.

Housing Related Support funding was extended to 31st March 2023. In addition, we obtained funding from a Safer Accommodation Duty Grant to cover shortfalls in providing refuge accommodation and Outreach services until the tender is determined.

We obtained a grant over two years from Lloyds Bank Foundation of£50,000 which will be used to support the organisation in meeting the financial burden of minimum wage rate increases implemented by the government. This is a short-term solution whilst plans are made to address this in the long term.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves

The trustees reviewed the charity’s Reserves taking into account the main financial risks faced by the organisation. They established a policy for the Reserves, highlighting the reasons for holding a reserve balance:

The policy is reviewed annually or in the event of significant financial changes. ;

The unrestricted reserves are regarded as the capital funds (£2,755,459) less the tangible fixed assets (£2,886,336). Long term liabilities (£360,542) have not been included as they are secured against the assets themselves. However, an allowance has been made for loan repayments due within one year including an amount of £100,000 to be paid off. This leaves an amount of£229,665 ofunrestricted reserves available. Large items to be purchased in the year include updating the Hideout garden (£25,000). In addition, there is uncertainty about funding for housing related support after 2022/23 as a tender bid will need to be successful, so three months of this contracted income including safer accommodation duty funding, for refuge and annexe plus outreach services and some redundancy costs, have been included in reserves to provide continuity (£90,080). Two months of shop takings have been included in reserves as this income is needed to cover the rent and rates of the shops plus provide continuity of activities in other projects including core services, children’s services and the Women’s Centre (£72,807). This leaves reserves of £41,778 which may be used to fund property repairs and maintenance.

Principal Funding Sources , The principal sources of funding for the charity are Housing Related Support grant (local government grant) and housing benefit (rent). These funds allow us to fulfil our main objectives of providing support and accommodation and raising awareness of domestic abuse. We have also had Safer Accommodation Duty funding from the Department of Levelling Up, Communities and Housing during the year. A Referral Support Worker continues to take police referrals to optimise engagement for domestic abuse, this is currently funded by North East Lincolnshire Council. The workload has grown considerably during the year with the number ofreferrals increasing month on month.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Principal Funding Sources

Our Children’s services have been funded from shop income and fundraising and we also levy a Children’s Services charge for residents in the refuge based on the number of children they have living with them.

Shop income, fundraising income and income from delivered training courses have been used to equip and run courses and training at the Women’s Centre. Shop income and fundraising income plus income from rented properties and reserves ~—have been used to fund the post of Housing Development manager and to maintain the rented properties. ‘Trustees have decided to use funds from their Reserves to repay £100,000 of the Charity Bank loan in 2023/24. This is in addition to the usual monthly repayments and was a decision based on combating rising interest rates. The repayment will reduce the overall debt and will keep the monthly repayments at a maintainable level.

In addition, an Empty Homes grant received from North East Lincolnshire Council has contributed to the refurbishment costs of one of the houses purchased in 2022/23.

Grants used during the year include; funding from the Crime Reduction Fund to meet the remaining capitalised costs of equipment needed for providing domestic abuse drop-in surgeries; a grant from the Nat West Safe Lives fund to help survivors of domestic abuse move forward and to promote recovery and resilience; funding to meet the remaining capitalised costs of assets to enable us to move to remote and digital working - from the Humberside Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner C19 Emergency Fund. Additional grants were spent during the year to continue to provide food, fuel and other essentials for those in need from NELC Hardship funds and the NELC Housing Support grant. Funding from a Nationwide Community grant was used to purchase security equipment, phones and video doorbells for victims of - domestic abuse. Also, an Awards for All grant has been used to provide family activities.

,

We have also again had a number of generous contributions from individuals, organisations and local businesses during the year.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

Our future developments continue to be focused on securing the funds needed to sustain our services. We have the following key strategic drivers for 2023/24: -

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF NORTH EAST LINCOLNSHIRE WOMEN’S AID

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of North East Lincolnshire Women’s Aid (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 March 2023 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

= give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company’s affairs as at 31 March 2023 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its result, for the year then ended; = have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and = have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. ~~ Basis foropinion a eee : : ee We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concer are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Page 10

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF NORTH EAST LINCOLNSHIRE WOMEN’S AID

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concem, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

:

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows:

We assessed the susceptibility of the company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:

Use of our report This report is made solely to the charitable company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the accounts

_

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) ‘Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1st January 2019)’, Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’ and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

In preparing the accounts, the trustees have considered whether in applying the accounting policies required by FRS 102 and the Charities SORP FRS 102 the restatement of comparative items was required. The trustees have concluded that no subsequent restatement of items has been required in making the transition to FRS 102. The transition date was | April 2015.

Incoming resources

All incoming resources are included on the statement of financial activities when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income.

Resources expended

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings, they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Expenditure includes VAT as the charity is not able to recover VAT, except in the case of the charity shops which have been registered for VAT since 1* September 2014.

Allocation and apportionment of costs

All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories on a basis designed to reflect the use of the relevant resources, Costs relating to a particular activity, shown in the statement of financial activities are allocated directly whereas other costs are apportioned on an appropriate basis.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its useful economic life: Equipment - at varying rates on cost Fixtures and fittings - at varying rates on cost Motor vehicle - at varying rates on cost

It is the charity’s policy to maintain its freehold and leasehold properties to a high standard. The expected useful economic life of these assets is expected to be over 50 years and the carrying value of the properties is considered to reflect their residual values. Therefore, these assets are not depreciated but the annual costs of maintaining the properties are charged to the SOFA in the year they arise.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
