KAIROSWOMEN WORKING TOGETHER REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES DED FOR OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Aims and Objectlves At Kairos, our vi8ion is a world there every woman matters and all women live free from sexual exploitation. We airn to empower women who are subject to or at risk of sexual exFloltation {whlch includes women who face multiple disadvantsge and have unmet needs) to increase theif safety. stability, self-belief, and self-reliance. through the provision of emotional and practicAI support and advocacy, so they may build fulf511e(I lives free from violence. abuse. and sexual exploitation. Through our wider advocacy and influencing work. we aim to use our specialist knowledge and expertise. alongside the voices of women with lived experience. lowards syElems change. Kairos is an ancient Greek word meaning 'the right, critical, or opportune moment for Ihe accomplishment of crucial action.. In Greek mythology, Kalros was the god of opportunily. We meet women knere they are at. until the lime is right for them to take action towards their goals. We provide options and create opportunities, supp)rting supporting women to accomplish the change they want for their lives. Kairos was established in 1999 to reach out lo a group of w)men who were perceived lo be marginalised and vulnerable: women involved in streel-based prostitution in the 'red lighl area, of Coventry. It was recognised that there were many complex issues that bound the women to prostitution and ihat there was a clear need for a dedicated projecl that could build relats'onships wlth the women and broker the provision of mainstream seniices that often struggled to reach and engage them. Through street-based outreach. trusting relationships with the vrnen formed. In the formative years, Kalros was run by a small leam of volunteers and in 2002, we gained charitable stalus. Over the past 25 years, the organisation gradually developed and has grown in line wth the women's needs and wishes. Particularly in recent years we have widened our reach, evolved our approach. and expanded our service offer to become a specialisl wornen's centre.we responded to the exlrerne challenges presented by the Covid-19 pandemlc. subsequenl cost of living crisis. and a more competitive funding landscape. Across four main service areas we now offer: streat-based outreach, daytime and evening drop-ln sessions. Crisis intervenlion and harm reduction support, facilitated and peer led groups. intensive 1-2-1 practical and emotional support and advocacy. access to counselling. and various enrichment activities. Navigating ever increasing levels of demand, complexity ol need. and increasing expectalions relating to professional knowledge, safeguarding. and risk management. we continue to b8 the service in Coventy who is Ihere for the women who, vithout us. would otherwise 'fall through the cracks,. As a values based organisalion our work reflects our shared core values. CompassSon- We believe that women have the righl lo be respected and treated fairly. W8J act with humanity, listening with curiosity to come to an understanding of what is causing them difficulties or distress. We value them as unique indpiiduals, hold Space for Ihem, and empathically seek to understand their priorities, needs, abilities. and aspirations. Empowemient- We recognise thal the women we support have a right to self-determinatlon. Rather than 'rescue'. we support Ihem to develop self-belief and establish a sense of choice, control. and agency wilhin their lives. We do not treat women as passive recipients of help and we maintain strong professional boundaries to ensure we facilitat8 independence. Justice- We understand that women at risk ol or subject to sexual exploitation face signfficant Injusti in their lives. They are often ignored, silenced. or pushed to the margins. As infomied and passionate passionate advclcates, we ensure Iheir voices are amplified and rights are upheld. We seek to positively challenge and influence poltcy and systems to improve outcomes for all women. Page 2
KAIROS WOMEN WORKING TOGETHER REPORT OF THE TRU TEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 We are unwavering in Ouf commitment to feminisl principles that prioritise the liberation. safety, and equalty of all women and girls. We believe Ihat patriarchy and systemic sex inequality perpetuate a societal structure where where women's bodies are objectified, commodified, and subjected lo violence. We view commercial sexual exploitationlthe 'sex industrl as a form of Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) because it is inherently exploitstive, rooled in sex inequalty. and perpetuates systemic violence through the commodifi'cation, objectffication. and abuse of women, often involving coercion, trafficking, phIcal and sexual violence, and long-term psychological harm. We support the NordicJEquality Model as a legislative response. We place no moralistic judgment on the women we support whatsoever and we are always led by them. Who We Support and The Need We Address We support women subject to or at risk of sexual exploitation. This includes women actively involved in street-based prostitution andlor other foms of commercial sexual exploitation, women seeking to exit the 'sex industy and women who have exited and require support to maintain this. We support young women who have been subjected to childhood sexual exploitation (CSE) and arg subject to or at risk of further sexual exploitation as they transition into adullhood. We support pregnant women and mums who may be at risk of having their children removed into care or are seeking to reunify with their children or strengthen family bonds. The vast majority of Ihe women we support women are in contact with or at risk of becoming involved in the criminal lusbc8 system andlor are homeless or at risk of homelessness. Most broadly. we support women who face multiple disadvantage and have rnultiple unmet needs becAuse we recognise that these women are at risk of sexual expl(itstion. Women who face muttiple disadvantage and have multiple unmet needs are at rlsk of sexual exploitatlon In all its forms, commercial and otherwise. Risk faclors may include (but are not limited to).. - History of complex trauma Poor mental health (often due to the impact of trauma) Subjected to childhood abuse, including Child Sexual Exploitation {CSE) Was a 'looked after child. or had social car8 involvement Has had their own children removed into care Subjecved to sexual andlor domestic abuse - Limited support networks Poverty Contact with the criminal justice system Employs coping strategies such as Substan use, which Gqn pla financial demands on th8 woman and impact on her ability to make informed choices and give consent Precarious housing or homelessness Exploited into the commercial sex induslrylselling sex as a child Subjecved to coercion. People {usually men) who coerce women into prostitution may employ intimidation, abuse. and violen. The coercion may be financial or Ihrough the provision of something needed (i.e., food, housing. drugs). It is a complex issue, and the perpetrator may not frt the 'pimp' stereotype. They May be a father. husband, partner. onloff partner, house mate, friend, associate, or drug dealer. PVIouS involvement in prostilution The women we support have all experienced trauma and struggle with the lasting impact of this. The majority were subjected to at least one form of childhood abuse. Around threLyuarters grew up in in the social-care sjstem and many have never experienced a safe, loving latiOnShIp. Many have had children removed from their care. The vast majority are routinely subjected to at least one form of violence and abuse.. sexual violen, domestic abuse, andlor coercive control. It is no SUTprise that many tum to substance use as a coping strategy. Tbvo thirds of Ihe women have spent time in prison. Most live in abject poverty, and have no safe space to call home. For those involved in prostitution, most were exploited into it as teenagers. some as young as 14 years dd. Page 3
KAIROS WOMEN WORKING TOGETHE REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 The women often face various barriers to accessing other servtces. Those focussed on single issues may struggle to reach andlor engage the women given the multiplicity of needs. For example. women may be living in poverty, in unsafe, insecuro housing, subject to dorne5tic and sexual abuse, stwggling with addiction as a way to cope with trauma. being sexually exploited Ihrough selling sex to survive. and struggling with the impact of trauma. Being involved in multiple services at the same time can be ovethelming and incredibly difficult for the women to navigate. Because our approach is women-centred. relational. holksb'c, trduma-informed, and open-ended, we're able to empower women to address multiple intersecting challenges. We also work alongside and in partnership with other organi5ations to support women's engagemenl with specialist SUPtx)rt such as drug and alcohol services or children's social care, for example. Kairos is at the heart (practically and emots'onally) of nelworks of supporL Th• Way W• Work We believe that every woman matters. Our work is women-centred. trauma-informed. and collaborative Our support is holistic. relational, and hopeful.. As an organisation, we are striving to become more reflective, outcomes focused. and ev idence- based in our professional practice. We're there for women In crisis, supporting them to increase their safety. reduce hann and ensure basic needs are met. We take time to build trusting retationships., persistence and flexibility are key. We also recognise the potential for women to move beyond entrenched cycles of crisis and harm. We support them lo believe in their ability to achieve Iheir goals and empower them to take the necessary steps along the way. We joumey alongside Ihem as they increase their stability and self-reliance. We fully recognise that such a journey is unique to each indivual woman, is never linear, and needs to be open-ended. Our Approach Women4entred- Kairos is run by women, for women. Women supported by Kairos have been subjected to male violence and all are impacted by trauma. They tell us that the presence of males could acl as signtfic8nt barrier to their engagement. Therefore. we prioritise women through the provision of single-sex S8rvices and spaces. Each vloman is al thg C8ntre of her joumay. wo are led by her. and we amplify the voices of Ihe women we support in our advocacy work. Trauma Inform•d- We nSider the effects of trauma in our interactions wrth women and in the design of our environment, approach, and servlces. We challenge the way In wthich women are blamed and often pathologised for their trauma. We focus on women's strengths and are noTrvictim blaming. We advocate for trauma-informed approach at a local, regional. and nats'onal level. Hopeful- We belleve in the potential of every woman and empower them to believe in themselves. We always hold hope for them. even when they might not want or feel ready for change. We will never give up on them. Our support enables them to reimagine their lives and we joumey with Ihem towards their goals. This is nol to be confused with placing expectations on the women., they lead us and we joumey alongside Ihem. Collaboratlv•- We listen to Ihe volces of yrnen wlth Ilved experience. They are actively involved In Co-designing their support plans and CO•producing service provision. We regularly consult with the women we support, so thal their voice is influential at all levels of organisatlonal decision making and beyond. We encourage and provide opportunities for peer leadership. We work in partnership wilh other organisations and ar8 always open to new opportunities for coljaborab'on. Relational- We take tlme to bulld trusiing relationships with women to malntain thelr ongoing engagement and optimise opportunities for 8mpowerment. Our infomal style involves patience. persistence. and flexibilily. We uphold high levels of confidentlalty and work to deliver whal we say we wrill. Hollstlc- Every woman is treated as a unique individual. with specific needs and ambitions. Setvices are designed to be open ended and to enable women to address multiple issues in their lives, not just focus on one area. because their lives cannot be calegorised into single issues. Page 4
KAIROS WOMEN WORKING TOGETHER REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 202 Outcomes Focussod- We want our support to be transformational. therefore we ensure our approaches and processes are working towards helping women move beyond crisis to achieve positive. lrfe changing outcomes, that result in more women living free from sexual exploitation. Eviden Based- We are infomied by good practice evidence of what wirks best to achieve our aims. We are striving to better collect dats, monitor outcomes, and evaluate our services to feed into a cycle of continuous improvement. Reflectlve- We engage in reflective practice, intentionally taking time to consid8r how our values, biases. thoughts. feelings. and beliefs influence the decisions we make in Ihe course of our work. Kairos is a place for learning and evolving. Page 5

KAJROS WOMEN WORKING TOGETHER REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 OBJECTIVES AND ACTMTIES Volunteers Kairos is privileged to have a dedicated team of 15 volunteers who assisted us with many aspects of seriice delivery throughout the year. The operation of outreach & dro1n, WWW, Blossoms. our fundraising capacity and our annual Christmas celebration could not continue at its current level wtthout the commitment and dedication of our volunteers, for which we are very grateful. This year we appoinled a dedicated Volunteer Manager for the first time. in line with our strategic aim to make Kairos a more sustainable organisation. The new Volunteer Manager completed a review of all our volunteering practices and updated policies, procedures, recruitment and induction processes, and introduced regular Support and Supervision for all voluntears. She also began facilitating regular Woman Supporting Women Workshops. a safe space for volunteers lo refiect, share best practice, and address challenges collaboratively. She introduced a Volunteer Handbook and implernented rnethods to ensure that our vdunleers know Ihey are valued. appreciated, and important members of our leam. In November 2023 the Volunteer Manager and volunteers represented Kairos at a local event. held on Saturday. to rnark International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. The Coventry Counts Dead Women vigil honoured the lives of women killed by men in the UK In the preceding 12 months. Alongside other support services, our volunteers engaged wSth the publlc to ralse awareness of the issue of men's violence against women and girls The Volunteer Manager attended recruitment and communlty events throughout the area to raise awareness of the Nvork of Kairos and of volunteering opportunities. There is a steady stream of interest from women seeking a role where they can support other women. Guided by our 2022-2025 organisation strategy, we are working lowards the following long term aims: 1) More Women Will Be AGhieving Transformational Outcomes That Last 2) Women Wrth Lived Experience Will Be PrActiVelY C8ntred In All That We Do 3) We Will Be Advocating For Women At A Local, Regional And National Level 4) We WiS18e A Best Practice Provider Of Outcomes-Focused, EVIden-BaSed Services S) Kairos Will Be A Well Resourced. Efficient And Sustalnable Organisation Objectives for the 202&2024 financial year towards these aims included: 1) To review all aspects of servlce provision to explore how we define 'succ6ss' and imp8Ct in the women's lives and to gain a more comprehensive understanding of what data we need to be collecting to be better placed to report on outcomes and articulate the difference we make in women's lives. 2) To (x)nsutt wrth women we support and other organisations regarding best practices for women's participalion work. 3) To Increase our stralegic partnership work. involvement in multi-agency forums, worklng groups. coalitions etc., and to strengthen our presence on social media. 4) To fully embed the use of Outcomes Stars across the organisation and explore options for an improv8d CRM database and continue to support the professional developrnent of the team (staff and volunleers) 5) To recruit a Fundraising Manager to work closely Vlti Ihe CEO and Finance Manager to develop furKlraising strategy.

ROS WOMEN WORKING TOGETHER REP RT OF THE TRUSTEES R THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 STRATEGIC REPORT Achlevement and performance Charitable actlvities Behveen the period of 1st April 2023 10 31st March 2024. Kalros supported 246 unique women. an increase from the previous year of 12QA. The majority of women who come to Kairos for support do so through word of mouth from peers, with other referrals coming from housing. Change Grow Live (drugs and alcohol seNic8), prison and probation. midwrfery and other health Serl¢eS, children's social care, and via the Coventy Women's Partnership (made up of FWT, Coventy Haven, CRASAC, Central England Law Cenlre; and Kairos). We believe the need is much greater in Coventry than we currently seNe and that there are communities of marginalised women we are rv)t yet reaching. Women received holistic wraparound support across our services based on their individual needs. Due to the multiple, intersecting challenges the women were facing. typically wlth Involvement in various external systems (housing, benefrts. health, social care etc.). their support was often intensive in nature. For example, a woman may have accessed crisis support on outreach, attended our women's hub several times. been supported lo attend and engage in meetings wrth other services. took part in one of our groups, ate meals and showered with us, and practiced Selfre in our garden, all in one week. Simullaneously, our staff may have been seeking out expert advice. writing advocacy tetters. liaising with stsff from other organisations. cornpleting safeguarding procedures, and contributing to mutti•agency safety planning all on behalf of the same woman in the same week. In our experience, this high level of interaction is needed to successfully engage women, overcome complex challenges, and achi6ve transformational change. Throughout the reporting period we undertook a number of activitles to refiect on and assess our success against our organlsalional and strateglc aims. These included: -weekly team check-ins -monthly support & supervlslon sessions between siaff and management -monthly group reflective practice sessions -monthly whole tearn meetings -rolling informal consultancy with the women we support -collection and analysis of feedback received -regular partnership rneetings -regular feview of data held on our database and outcomes measure tool to capture cornmon themes -quarterty Board meetings -annual seniice and stralegy reviews -quarterty, 6 rnonth. and annual reporting back to individual funders on progress against agreed key perfom)ance indicators Kairos continued to use a CRM database system, Lamplight, to record day to day actlvities and work records Ihroughout the reporting period. We also used the nationalty recognised Triangle online Outcome Stars to monitor, review, and record progress and outcomes achieved with the women we support. We acknowledge th81 neither of these systems aided us in truly capturing the irnpact of our Work, thus y plan to explore, adopt, and embed new ways to measure and demonstrate the difference we make to the women's lives in the coming financial year. The following overview highlights the number of women supported in each service and the outcomes reported by the women we support. Page 10
KAIROS WOMEN WORKING TOGETHE RE RT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Feeling Safe: Our Feeling Safe service supported 56 young women 16 - 25 years old as they transitioned into adullhood. Thls year we lowered the age criteria to 16 based on recommendatlons from an external evaluation into the effectiveness of Feeling Safe, conducted by independent researchers from Nottingham Trent and Coventry Universities which hlghlhted a gap in transitional safeguarding for 16 and 17 year old girls as they 'aged out, of children's seNices. This is often a crilical time as support they received from as childn (up to the age of 18) drops avrny and they are at risk of becoming further isolated. and vulnerable. We know that perpetrators of sexual exploitation don't suddenly stop their abuse because the girl turns 18 and she as the vlctim does nol suddenly become a 'consenting adult, no longer in need of supporL We were able to meel with and deliver training to local authority services (i.e. the young people's exploitation team) based on the findings of the serrfice evaluation, along with training to a wide variety of professionals from local services. We plan to continue lo raise awareness of the unique needs of girls at risk of sexual exploitation as they transition into adulthood and strengthen referral pathways to ensure that fewer young women are falling through the cracks. The Feeling Safe service uses the Young Persons Star to monitor and record progress made. 72% reported that they improved or malntained their choices and behaviours 750A reported that they improved or maintained how they feel 770/0 reported that they improved or rnaintained their positive people and support networks 83Yo reported that they improved or mainlained their practical life skills. As part of our Feeling Safe service we continued to facilitate a weekly ernpowerment group called Qu•on Bees where young women provided peer support. built their self-confidence, improved their wellbeing. and increased their understanding of their rights ( for example their rights within a heathy relationship). The group was attended by 24 women over the reporting year who reported an increase in coping skills. lrfe skills. Confence, and feeling of community as a result of their involvement. They also reported that Ihgy knew more about their rights and had a Clearer idea of their future goals. Some members of the group became involved in our wider advocacy work themselves,. contributing to external consultations and research Projects, participating in a meeting with MPS at Parliarnent, 8nd contributing to training delivery Our 2023 Summer Programme. which offers young women the opportunity lo try new experiences. build their confidence. meet other young women, and broaden their horizons to help them think about what they would like to achieva in the future. was attended by 17 young women. .This year, there was 8 focus on accessing affordable. low cost activities In the local community wilh the idea of encouraging the young women to feel confident i n taking up activities that interest Ihem in their own time. Aspire: Our Aspire service supported 137 women over 25. Some of the women were or had previously been actively involved in street-based prosts'tution andlor olher forms of commercial sexual exploitation. They often accessed the Service in crisis and some cycled in and out of support, which we recognise is a natural part of change when facing multiple disadvantage. The women typically experienced the most harsh extremes of povety (and they were often not in recelpt of the benefits Ihey were entitled to), complex physical and mental health challenges (but may not have been registered with a GP or in receipt of specialist medical support), homelessness (which is so often 'hidden' as differs from male homelessness), lrfe controlling use of substances lo cope with trauma. criminalisation (most often for non-violent offences), and repeated victimi5ation in the form of robberies, assaults. kidnapping. hostage keeping. torture. financial abuse, blackmail, sexual assaults and rapes. coercive control and domestic abuse (though may nol have been considered a victim of this because her perpetrator may not have been a stereotypical intimate partner. This seNice struggled to meet the demand for support due to tho increasing complexity of need presented throughout the year. We recognise a need to increase capacty in this service so that more women can receive support that extends beyond crisis intervention and harm reduction, however this was a challenge within the funding cx)nstraints of the reporting peiiod. Page11
KAIROS WOMEN WORKING TOGETHER REPORT OF THETRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Tragically, a higher than usual number of women known to us through this service passed away during the reporting period. which we believe is linked to the inequalrties Ihey faced in their lives. One significant issue which emerged this year and put women's lives at risk was an increase in synthetic opioids in the local community. which created an increased risk of overdose. We responded to this by ensuring we communicated Ihe risk and harm reduction measures to women, continued our close partnership working wilh CGL, the local commissioned drugs and alcohol service (induding them being co-located on Wednesdays at our drop-in), and we introduced a pilot with CGL where our staff were trained to train women in the safe administration of Naloxone on others. For the A8pire Service we use the Empowernient star to Monitor outcomes. 63°/tr roportod that they improved or maintained their money 69°/o reported that they improved or maintained their legal issues 69 % reported that they improved or maintained their health and wellbeing 710/0 reported that they improved or maintained their empowerment and self-esteem. 74 /• reported that they improved or maintained their safety In addition to the Aspire service we continued to run a weekly evening street-based Outrèach and Dropln provision. where staff and volunteers walk around the local so-called 'red light districy, distributing food. drinks and condoms. chatting to women and inviting them back to our session held later in the evening. At our dropin we offer hot food and drinks. needle exchange, dothes and a nonfjudgemental, listening ear. There is no obligalion for women to access Our wider support services, however Ihis is most often where the women supported under Aspire first accessed wider support and self-refer in. It can take many months, if not years to build up enough trust with a woman for her to feel ready and able lo receive ongoing support. During the reporting period, 73 women were supported via our Outreach and Dropin provision. Women reported to us that they valued a safe. womertronly space. that they could retreat to, where they wouldn't be judged or pressured for anything in retum. A Home of Her Own: The A Home of Her Own SeiCe supported 42 vfflen who were homeless or at risk of homelessness across 3 pathway as follows; Crisis: supporting women who are homeless, rough sleeping, sofa surfing or using suThival sex. There were 8 wornen supported through this pathway. Prevention.. supporting women at rlsk of home18ssness, or evlction. There ware 24 women supported Ihrough this pathway. Sustainmenl.. supporting women who have moved into thelr own lenancy, access grants, setting up utilities and settling in to the local community. There were 10 women supported through this pathway. It should be noted that during this financtal year there was a period where the Specialisl Houslng Practittoner role was vacant so we reached fewer women than anticipated through this provision.

ROS WOMEN WORKING TOGETHER REPORT OF THETR STEES FOR THE YEAR ENDEO 31 MARCH 2024 Women's Justice: Our Women's Justice Service, currently funded by the Mlnlstry of Justice. 5UPPOrted 86 women In contact with the criminal justice system {CJS). Our intervention included us going into prisons, release planning, supporting women on Ihe day of release and providing ongoing support in the comrnunity. We worked closely with prisons, probation. and other services. Most of the women's offences %vere directly lated to povety, homelessness, or addicts'on and were typicalty acquisitive and non-violent. We saw that criminal exploitation of the women was also a coniributlng facior in some cases and this Is often interlinked with coercive control and domestic abuse by male perpetrators. We aimed to address the criminogenic factors that contributed to women's offending. thereby reducing the risk of reoffending and the likelihood of women being repeatedly caught up in the revolving door of short term periods of imprisonment. Women's experiences of criminalisab'on intersects with being subject to or at risk of sexual exploitation, so we worked on increasing our voice and influence within the women's justice sector. We were successful in our application to Join the National Women's Justice Coalition, lo Vrk alongside other women's centres and specialist services to influence governrnenl legislation and policy making lo better address issues related to women caught up in the criminal Justice system. We were also visited by the Ministry of Justice who were interested in our approach and work with young women. The Women's Justice service uses the Justice Star 53% reported that they improved or maintained their mental health and wellbeing skills 54% reported that they irnprov8d or maintained managing strong feelings, 57 % reported that they improved or rnaintained thelr living and selfcare skS11s. 65°/o rewrted that they improved or maintained decreasing or abstaining from drugs and alcohol 72 % reported thal they improved or maintained leadin9 a crime free lrfe Wonder Women Wednesdays: Wonder Women wednesda {WWW) Is our weekly daytime multi-agency support drop-ln.

Foleshill Women's Training, Coventry Rape and Sexual Abuse Centre. Central England Law Cenlre, Change Grow Live (CGL-substsnce use), mental health, housing, and others. St. Margaret's Church often provided a wellbeing aclivty for the women. By adopting a relational approach to interacting with women al WWW sessions, external professionals often find they are abla to exlend speclalist support to women in need who Ihey wouldnl ordinarily reach. If women made a disclosure of abuse. violence, OT exploitation or asked for support regarding a variety of issues. the services were there and available to them. The women didn't need to fill in foms or wait for response but could speak to people that they might have already built a relats'onship with. WWW crealed safer space in which moments that might transform a woman's experience could happen. For examplè, if a woman decided She would like to be on a methadone 'script' (prescription) to start to address her use of heroin. she might have been contemplating the idea for months before she felt able to take action. In Ihat time, she met and had conveT5ations with the relevant CGL worker. They built up a relationship which then Makes it easier for the woman to take that first slep. The women who used the service reported that Ihe dropin felt like their space. a place where they feel comfortable and the know they will get the same consistent support from all the services in the partnership.

KAIROSWOMEN WORKING TOGETHER REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR END D31 ARCH 2024 Blossoms: Our Blossoms group, delivered in partnership with a Specialist Midwife, supported 21 women who were pnant andlor had babtes. The majortly of the women who attended this group had children's social care services involvement at either a Child In Need or Child Protection level. The women were supported to believe in their own capacity to be a nurturing and protective mum5. At Blossoms there is a strong focus on maternal health and wellbeing. Many of the vrfomen benefited from support from staff and each other regarding their fears and anxieties around soctal care involvement. Wornen were encouraged and supported lo engage in care plans with the aim of improving outcomes for mum and baby. In some cases, the intervention helped prevent the baby from entering the care system, therefore reducing intergenerational experiences of the care system. The group also helped women manage their expectations in ternis of possible child removal andlor to cope with the experience of having their child removed.

Thank5 lo funding received through ROSA, we were able to use the services of extemal fundraising consultancy service, Capidale. for assistance with bid writing. This investment not only enabled us to exceed our fvndraising target for Ihe year, but upskilled our CEO in effective bid WTiting.

ROS WOMEN WORKING TOGETHE REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Partnerships Kairos continued to maintsin and build many successful partnerships and alliances localty. regionally and nationally. These relats'onships have helped Strengthen referral pathwass, improved service delivery, the outcomes we achieve. as well as benefiting stsff well-betng and development. In addition lo providing fronttine support setvices. Kairos is dedicated to amplifying the voices of the women we support and advocaling for and influencing systems change. Therefore staff al all levels contribute to many multi-agency meetings, fonjms, working groups, coalitions, and boards across various sectors that impact on the lives of disadvantaged and margin81ised women subject to or at risk of sexual èxploitslion. Kairos continued to be an active member of the Covenlry Women's Partnership, funded by The Smaltwood Trust. alongside Foleshill Women's Training (FWT). Coventy Rape and Sexual Abuse Centre (CRASAC), Coventy Haven Women's Aid (CHW A) and Central England Law Centre (CELC). This partnership aims to increase social and economic outcomes for women, helping them to easily access multiple seNices and move smoothly between agencies. The partnership was evaluated by Renaisi, a social enterprise which conducts research into social and economic injustice to drive social change. The research explored the partnership's trauma-infomied and women-centred approach and ¢Jemonslraled Ihe potential for the Partnership to have greater influence as a colleclive voice representing the needs of the women collectively supported. an area for further development should we secure further sustainable funding to advance our Kairos advocated for Coventry to participate in the Women's Rough Sleeping Census, led by Solac6 and CGL. to ensure Ihat women's homelessness is recognised as an issue distinct from men's homelessness and in need of dedicated strategy, policyrnaking, and funding. We championed the Census locally and were not surprised that 60 women were idenlified as rough sleeping, using the VK)men¢entric approach to counting. compared to the 1 woman using standard male centric approaches. We were actively involved In 8 qualitatlve legal needs research study. a project belween the Universty of Warwck School of Law. the Central England Law Centre and Law for Lrfe: The Foundation for Public Legal Education. The study focuses on the experiences of marginalised groups and the rola of community organisations in supporting them lo access civil and social justice. We continued a partnership with Coventry City Council's Community Resilience Tearn, who administer the household support fund for fuel. Many of the women we support faced many barriers to accessing the fund, It often took too long. in which lime the crisis had passed or the women's contacl details had changed and it couldn't be administered. To overcome these barriers, we set up an agreement with the Community Resilience Team to fast track applications that were made by women accessing our WWW dropin and were in need of immediate assistance with fuel vouchers. This was of great benefit to many of the women we supporL Our partnership wlth Coventrvs Integrated Sexual Healih (ISH) seryice conllnued. We are able to supply sexually- transmitted infections (STI) testing kits, which the yrnen can carry out themselves and are then sent off to be analysed. This has reduced the need for women to have an app05ntment at ISH to access an STI test and increased the uptake of women seff-testing. We continued to fund our partnership with Valley House, for women lo have lrnmediat8 access to person centred counsdling. Women accessing counselling first have an initial meeling with the Counselling Coordinator before being matched with a counsellor. Women accessed counselling for 6 rnonths. and if there was availabilty, longer if needed.

The significanl risks that Kairos faced during the reporting pertod included: Impact of the costryof-living crlsis: The cost-of-livlng crisis continued to severety impact the women we support, sending them further in to poverty and at further risk of sexual exploitstion. Other ServIS reported that they We at Capacity and the vrnen we supported were sometimes unable to get their needs met by other services. This meant an increased demand on our service. We saw more women through our evening outreach and drop-in. We experienced a furlher decrease in the number of donations we ceiVed of essential items such as toiletries or clothes from the general public and a signtficant fall in donations, such as towards our Christmas campaign. Yet more women were asking for essential items. particularly as other services such as local food banks announced that they were in crisis and had to limit their distribution. - Staff Wellbeing.. Frontline stsff work day in day out where the oppresslon of women through unjust slemS and men's violence against women and girls is a huge element: this leads to the risk of secondary and vicarious trauma. The work is fast paced and. at times exhausting. triggering, and enraging. This risk has been mitigated by ensuring that all staff receive managerial and clinical supervision on a monthly basis, weekly paid staff 'wellbeing houe, and an employee assistance programme (EAP) with access to additional counselling sessions. We have embedded a culture of supporting each other, reflecting on practice, and prioritising self-care. We also undertook a pay review and salary harmonisation exercise and improved contractual working Gx)ndilions such as increased leave. Safeguarding: Kairos staff dealt wlth a high number of safeguarding issues and concems on a regular basis. There was an increase in the number of referrals to and attendances al MARAC. To reduce the risks associated with safeguarding. we continued to have robust recording and reporting procedures. We contlnued with a weekly Safeguarding meeling bebNeen senior members of the team. All Trustees. staff, and volunteers keep Iraining refreshed and we promote a culture of safeguarding. - Kairos premises: Kairos has been based at St. Margaret's thurch since 2020, however we have grown and the Church now have amernatlve plans for the space. Afso, recurrlng heating issues put the charity at risk of not being able to cary oul its aims or provide a safe working environment. We have been actively seeking suitable new premises since 2021. having made appeals to the local CA>uncil. MPS, and the local communty. We've been supported with property search consultancy from The Ethical Propety Foundation thanks to fvnding from Lloyds Bank Foundation. have designated some reserves lowards 8 move, and have received pledges from funders towards building refurbishments. The CEO. Head of Service Delivery and a sub group of Trustees continue to search for a new home for Kairos.
