women's support services set up and led and run by and for Bla¢k and minoritised women, but we recogni5e that
there are many other kinds of 'by and for, services such as those supporting disabled women, LGBT+ and others.
Our approach is rooted in an understanding not only of men's violence against women and girls, but also the way
intersecting factors such as race, age. class. eas￿, ethnicity, sexual orientation and disability can affect girls and
women's journeys and cxperienccs. As such we actively promote the leadership, autonomy and self-detennination of
Black and minority ethnie women and girls.
At Imkaan, we recognise that VA WG is a fundamental violation of our human rights and one that has implications
within a range of human rights framcwork5. We are committed to utilising (and expanding} existing human rights
approaehes in our work to end violence against women and girls. Imkaan aims to create safe spaces for black and
minority ethnic women and girls, to define our perception of human rights. identify our own priorities and to
strengthen our voices at national and international levels.
The organisation initially set out to provide services for refuges working with South Asian women and children.
Since our consultation with stakeholders in December ?005, Imkaan provides advice. information and practical
&SSiStance including networking forums, capacity building and training to Black and minoritised women's
organisations and seTvices in England, Scotland and Wales.
Imkaan was first established in direct rcsponsc to an exprcsscd need by front-linc refuge staff and local sccond-tier
seryice providers. The need for Imkaan's work as a second-ticr umbrella organisation is documcnted through
continuous consultation with our members who provide up-trpdate information on the issues and concerns they
experience on the frontline of service delivery. Imkaan is clcar in its vision to clevatc voices of Black and

Impaci Of Imkaan'5 Work Over Ihe Yeur
Imkaan is a national feminist organisation, dedicated to addressing violence against Black and minoriti5ed women
and girls. We centre anti-racism as a key component to tackling violence against women and girls (V A WG). Imkaan
are proud to support 38 member oruanisations, representing the expertise and perspectives of frontline. Specialist
and dedicated Black and minoritised women's organisations, that work lo prevent and respond to VA WG every day.
Imkaan also work with 21 local and regional netsvorks of Black and minoritised women and girls who are not
Imkaan members to Crea￿ the foundation for wider movement building work.
Imkaan has highlighted a significant disparity in the provision of 'by and for, services withln the Violence Againsi
Wonien and Girls {VA WG) sector. According to the National Domestic Abuse Commissioner, only 51 yo of Black
and minoritised survivors who sought specialist 'by and for, support were able to access it. This figure drops further
for other marginalised groups. with jusi 190/0 of LGBT+ survivors and 70/0 of disabled survivors receiving the
support they needed. Alarmingly, onty 2 out of 30 Deaf survivors could aceess specialist seTviees. Extensive sector-
wide data r¢v¢als that VAWG dispi'oportionarely atrects Black and minoritised women and girls. De5Plte this. these
groups remain consistently excluded frotn policy discussions on cnding V AWG. Thi5 SySteTnic exclusion not only
exacerbates the cliallenges faced by survivors but also undemines the efforts of 'by and for, organisations working
to protect them from violence and abuse. The UK Government policies, particularly those related to immigration,
have severely hampered efforts to end V A WG. H05tile environment policies place miorant victirn-survivors at risk
of dcportation if they report abuse, compounded by their exclusion from support due to the No Recourse to Public
Fund5 (NRPF) condition. Also, the failure to address institutional racism, racial inequality. and misogyny within
Statutory Sectors further Mar￿l￿aliseS Black and minoritised women and girls, increasing their vulnerability to
violencc. Imkaan'5 duty extends beyond addressing domestic abuse to confrontin¢F all forms of violence against
Black and minoritised women, with a particular focus on the lack of support for disabled Black and minoritised
survivors. In 2023. the Home Secrctary recognised VAWG as a national threat, including it in the Strategic Policing
Requirement alongside terrorism and ￿riOuS organised crime.
Imkaan published a lif¢worqieath report with Centre for Women's Justice January 2023. The life-or4eath T¢POrt
examines the challenges encounter¢d by Black and minoriti5ed women who tragically10s¢ their lives in instances of
domestic homiclde and suicide within the context of domestic abuse. It focuses on the additional ¢hall¢nges they
face, over and above the difficulties faced by white women. The foundation of the report was based on ih¢mes
identified by die 'by and for. Black and minoritised women's organisations in Imkaan member organisations within
workshops we did with them. The themes of the report reflect the day-to-day experiences of the survivors the by and
for services work with - and are also reflected in the experiences of the women who died. We have shown the way

Contributed to the tragic deaths of Black and minoritised women.
In light of Ircent violent racist, Islamophobic, and anti-migrdnt attacks instigated by far-right groups across the UK,
Imkaan has prioritised the wellbeing of 51aff and survivors within Black and minoritlsed 'by and for. VAWG
organisations. ThEsc cvenls have highlighted the need for urgent action and resource5 to support or(vanisations
disproportionately irnpactcd by such violcncc. Thcsc wave of attacks, incited by white supremacisl group5, has
created an environment of fear and distress for both service providers and the communities they serve. Imkaan's
member organisations are confronting rising operational and emotional challenges, compounded by significant
funding constraints. In response, Imkaan is calling for immediate, unrestricted hardship funding from ￿nderS and
commissioners to help these organisations manage the unforeseen costs associated with emergency responses to
racial violence and threats. Imkaan's members. already underfunded and undcr-resourced. are among those most
acutely affected by these attacks. Imkaan has formally addressed letters to thc Horne Secretary. Minister for
Safcguarding, Secretary of State for Housing. Communities and Local Governmenl Secretary of Stste for Health
and Social Carc. Sccrctary of State for Education. and Secrerary of State for Culture, Media, and Sport, outlining
urgent concerns and actionable requests. The letter emphasised that the recent far-righr violence, including attack5
on asylum accommodation, rnust be Immediately addressed. These attacks are not i501ated incidents but are the
result of years of inflammatory rhetoric. minimi5ation 'of ¢xtremist activity, and lack of intervention from
authoritie5. The murder of Alice Da5ilva Aguiar. Bebe King. and Elsie Dot Stancombe-victims of male violence-
has been exploited by far-rigl)t groups to fvel xenophobic attacks. This climate has heightened the vulnerability of
Black and minoritised communities, particularty those within 'by aiid for, services. Imkaan urged the government to
provide immediate protective measure5 for all Black and minoritised communitie5 and organisations. Imkaan
addressed thai there is widespread fear that frontline services, including specialist re￿ges, will be directly targeted.
Imkaan addressed the institutional racism within public agencies remains unaddre55ed.
Imkaan emphasised on that the UK lacks a comprehensive strategy to counter systemic and institutional racism,
evident in the Windrush Compensation Scheme's failures and the hostile environment policies that have exacerbated
vulnerabilities within rninoritised communities. Imkaan called for government must end its minimisation of far-righi
extremism, Islamophobia, and anti-immigrant sentiment, which continues to incite violence. Recent attacks on
hotels housing asylum seekers undcr5core the urgent need for safe, humane. and stable asylum housing policies.
Imkaan and its members have observed significant police failures to intervene in violent incidents. fvrther eroding
trust among Black and minoritised communities. We called on law enforcement agencie5 to fully implement anti-
racism strategies and prioritize the protection of all communities affecfrd by racial. anti-migrant, and Islamophobic
violence.
Imkaan also launched a joint best practice guide on SUTvivor engagement with Welsh Women's Aid. Scottish

Imkaan developed the In Our Words manifesto to articulate our demands for a new government commitment to
ending systemic inequality and violence against Black and minoritised women and girls. The manifesto ouilines
Imkaan's vision for collaboration with the next government and other Black and minoritised VA WG specialists.

TRUSTEES'AKNUAL REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS, REPORT)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH ?0?4
This approach is critical to safeguarding Black and minoritised victim-survivois and responding to their specific
needs. The broader legislative and policy decisions of the previous government have significantly hindered progress
in ending VA WG. exacerbating challentses within frontline setvices and limiting the support available to victim-
survivors. As a representative body for specialist Black and minoritised wornen's organi5ations. Imkaan brings a
wealth of expertise and perspectives frotn thesc dcdicated frontline organisations. Imkaan emphasisc that limiting
rocus solely to domestic abuse, as is common in mainstream narrative5, would neglect the broader scope of violence
affecting Black and minoritised women. Imkaan is therefore committed to addressing all foms of violence
experienced by these comrnunities. Of particular concern 15 the significant lack of provisions and servicc5 available
for disabled Black and minoritised victim-survivors. an arca that demands urgent attention and government action.

Ba5isfor opinio
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAS (UK)) and applicable
law. Our responsibilities under tliose standards are ￿rtI]er described in the auditor's responsibilities for the audit of

that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
ConelusioAs relating lo going coftcern

accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have perforn)ed. w¢ have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or

continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised

required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If,

As explained more fvlly in tlie trustees, responsibilities statement set out on page l O, 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 15 necessary to enable the preparation of financial ststements that are free from material
misstaternent, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements. the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitsble company's ability to
contillue &$ a going concern. disclosintr as applicable, matters related to going Concern and usintr 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.
Audiior's responsibilitiesfor ihe audil ¢pf thefinancial stalements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financi85 statctnents as a whole are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor'5 report 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 mis5tatcmcnt when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error
and are considered material if, individually or in the aggrcgate, thcy could reasonably be expected to influence the
economic decisions of users taken on the basis of thcse financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliancc with laws and regulation5. We design procedure5 in
line with our responsibilities, outlined above. to detect maierial misstatements in respect of irregularities, including
fraud. The extent lo whicli our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities. including fraud is detailed below:
the engagement partner en511r¢d that the audit team had the appropriate competence, capability and skill to
identify and recognise any non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
12

IMKAAN
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH ?0?4
we identified such laws and regulations applicable from our discussions with trustees and other
management and from our knowledge and experience of the sector.
we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the
financial ststemenLS or the operaiions of the charitable company. including the Companies Act ?006, the
Charities Act 2011 and the Charity SORP (FRS I O?).
we eonsidered the provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial
ststements but compliance with which might be fundamental to the charitable company's ability to operate
or to avoid a material penalty, including the Gencral Data Protection Regulation (GDPRI, Anti-frau(L
bribcry and corruption legislation. Taxation legislation and Employment legislation.
we assessed tlie extrnt of compliance with laws and regulations identified above tlirough making enquiries
of management and inspecting legal correspondence. and
identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team and the team remained alert to
instances of non-compliance throughout the audit.
We assessed tlie susceptibility of thc charitable company'5 financial statements to material misstatement, including
obtaining an understanding of how frdud might o¢¢ur by:
making enquiries of management as to where they ¢on5ider¢d there wa5 5U5CePtibility to fraud. their
knowledge of actual. suspected and alleged fraud. and
onsidering the intemal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and
regulations.
To address Ihe risk offraud rhrough manngemeni blas and overrlde of controls, we..
performed anatytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships:
tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions-
assessed whether judgements and a&sumptions made in deterniining the accounting estimates were
indicative of potential bias; and
investigated the rationale behind significant or Unusu￿ transactions.
In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations. we designed procedures
which included. but were not limited to:
agreeing financial statetnent disclosures to underlying supporting documents
rcading thc minutes of meetin￿5 of those charoed with govemance. and
enquirino of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, thcrc is a risk that we will not defrct all irregularities. including those
leading to a material Missta￿Ment in the financial stafrments or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases
the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from thc cvcnts and tran5actiOll5 reflectcd in the
financial statements. as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliancc. The risk 15 also
greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather tlian error, as fraud involves intentional Goncealment,
forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresen(ation.
