Objectives and Activlties
a. POLICIES AND OBJECTIVES
The objecttves of the Charity are primarily bLrt not exclusively to assist in the relief of women and their children
from Black and Minority Ethnic groups who have suffered or are suffering or are at risk of suffering, domestic
violence and forced marriage, through the provision of support, education, advice, and accommodation and by
such other charitable means as the Executive Committee think fit with the object of improving their conditions of
life. Provision for communty women was also created.
b. ACTIVITIES FOR ACHIEVING OBJECTIVES
Throughout 2023124 Humraaz continued to offer quality services to vulnerable women and their children which
were tailored to their individual needs. Many of these women do not speak English and our team of bilingual
project workers and support staff provide one-to-one support on a daily basis. Most of the women we support
have NRPF and require specialist immigration assistance. We are therefore supporting some of the most
vulnerable women in the country. The intense practical support they receive enables them to move on from
abuse and fear to safety and independence. Humraaz ensured a space was allowed for BME women in the
community to expand skills. reduce isolation and have a safe pla￿ to belong by means of workshops, social
groups and learning activities.
Humraaz is a specialist "by and for. service and will continue to promote the importance and virtues of specialist
support for Black & Minoritised Ethnic {BME} women. Humraaz continues to receive high volumes of referrals
from women who are unable to access public funds. Working with these women Humraaz has a 100/0 success
rate of securing Indefinite Leave to Remain.
Partnership working
Humraaz has continued to work in partnership with several organisations across the violence against women
and girls (VAWG) sector, working collectively where possible to share expertise, experience and create positive
outcomes for marginalized suNivors. Some of Humraaz's partnership working has included the following..
Northern Consortium- continualion of neI￿Ork and sharing expertise.
Imkaan - policy review, membership participation, netmorking, and training.
Women's Aid - support, standards, policy, impact, and guidance. Confirmed Award for National Quality

TRUSTEE'S REPORT (continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
IT
Confidentiality and IT security continue to remain high on the agenda. All data is kept on the Central server and
backed up daily for additional security, this is a much-improved system than the shared server previously used.
IT service provision was reviewed and resourced.
Staffing
The CEO continued to work on raising the profile of the service, meeting commissioner5, partners, and
stakeholders. The movement of team with staff turnover was prominent and so team members have been
recruited into new roles to support the team with capacity. We had one team member leave. and a replacement
was recruited.
Volunteers for community activities and learning workshops have been supported.
Premises and factlitles
The Trustees and Management have ensured that all properties meet standards required by legislation and that
the overall standard of décor and furnishings is high. Equipment was replaced as required. Reviewing the
potential accrual for the single larger premises for refuge accommodation has been a priority. The Charity
continues to lease the 2nd floor at Unity House. In-person Se￿iceS for the community were resumed with health
and safety protocols in place. We continued to offer educational sessions for our service users from the refuge.
c. MAIN ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN TO FURTHER THE CHARITY'S PURPOSES FOR PUBLIC BENEFIT
The Trustees confimi that they have paid due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit
reporting in deciding what activities the Charity should undertake.
The remainder of the Annual Report explain's the Charitys work during the year and how it has been carried out
for the public benefit. {See Activities for Achieving Objectives above).
d. VOLUNTEERS
.The Trustees confirm that they have paid due regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit
reporting in deciding what activities the Charity should undertake. The Trustees are all volunteer5 who have
continued to serve the charity, especially by contributing their professional advice when required. Meetings took
place six times during the year. A core of 6 Trustees remain committed to the service. All trustees have an
induction pack and priority is given to attending events whenever possible. As the majority of our trustees are
young women with full-time jobs, we operate a hybrid trustee model. This ensures that each trustee has a
specialist skill that Ihey bring to the board in order to support the Charity. This helps with managing capacity and
concentrates individual contribution. We also have trustees who are not local to the area, however they are
committed to the purpose of the Charity and virtually attend meetings with the aim of visiting in person annually.
Thank you to donors, funders, supporters and the commitment and resilience of all staff.

Plans for future periods
a. FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
Humraaz strives to continue supporting women and their children who are victims of Domestic Abuse, forced
marriage and honour based violence, whilst expanding networking and promotion of the services of Humraaz.
We have built on the strategy work commenced in the last financial year to clarify our mission and vision
statement which will be adopted in the forthcoming year. We have been mindful of language, including staff,
service users, trustee and relevant sector input when considering and selecting temis.
Humraaz continues to work with the emphasis on ensuring women are fully equipped with the skills necessary to
live a fully independent and integrated life. Group work and counselling services are being developed further and
new ideas are being considered. Humraaz continues to promote the virtues and benefits of a specialist Service.
Funding as always remains a concern as housing benefits have been reduced and the Supporting People
contract may possibly suffer further cuts in the future. Currently, Humraaz has sufficient reserves to mitigate any
risks for the near future. However, Humraaz will strive to appropriate additional funding in the future.
The support now gained from closer involvement with Imkaan a national capacity building organisation has made
a big difference to Humraaz. Work has been done on governance and strategy with the Trustees.
