OBJECTIVES To relieve mental, emotional and physi sickness of persons, resident in Wanvickshire by the provision of counselling and support for such pcrsons. To advance the education of the public in general on the subject of how better to meet the need5 of people with mental. emotionat and physical sickness, in such ways as the tnistees see fit. The main purpose of the Warwickshire CounselIing Centre is to benefit the community of Nuneatoffj Bedworth and the surrounding area by delivering professional therapy services and to preserve professionalism by offering training opportunities and clinical supervision. There is a high prevalence of people with mental health and emotional issues in the are& In order to meet its main objectives, the centre is committed to enabling as many people as possible to access high quality affordable therapy. The charity therefore, endeavours to safeguard the quality of its work by ¢nsuring that it recruits qualified and motivated staff. We are committed to providing a profession standard of therapy for those with insufficient means to afford IL In view of this, we offer general counsellinpjtherapy to the community regardless of age, gender. ethnicity, sexual orientation or disability on a donation basis. In filltherance of our charitable objectives, we have continu¢d to develop our service and support individuals who come to us for counselling.
Page 4 WARWICKSHIRE COUNSELLING CEF (Company Limited by Guarantee) The TTUStees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024 Providing affordable counselling relies on the commitment and good will of our therapists who either volunteer their services or work for remuneration below that paid by other providers whether private or public sector. In a rccognised aa of deprivation such as Nuneaton and Bedworth, which has some of the most deprived political wards in the county, the trustees are very aware that both old and youn8 are vulnerable to the stresses of everyday life. During the year, we received 1078 new referraIs of which 640 were adults and 438 were children and young people and at least a furt} 180 clients continued in counselling from the previous Yr. We have continued to received many additional enquiries from people who live Outside of the area and are therefore not eligible for our funding streams. For the clients we have been able to engage with we feel that we have made a difference in their Elves by helping them to cope in what has continued for some to be difficult times. The mainstay of our service is our volunteers without whom we would not have been able to support the people that we have. This includes a strong team of senior volunteer counsellors some of whom have volunteered for us for a number of years. All of our volunteers are a most valued part of OUT service without whom therapeutic support could not take place. This year we nominated one of our long standing Teception volunteers Doug Ames for a Long Servirx Award through WCAVA and he was shortlisted and recognised for his contribution to the local community. AcfivITIES The activities this year have focused entirely on responding to the therapeutic needs of our community. In addition to the clients offered one to one counselling we offered counselling with therapeutic play. Movement Psychotherapy, Drama Therapy. Yoga Therapy. couples counselling both remotely or face to face. Externally seven local primary schools commissioned us to offer COUDselling face to face for their pupils and a variety of models of therapy were PTovided to numerous other Schools through our involvement in the Early Help provision commissioned through Warwickshire County Council and increasingly through individual schools and organisations funding individuals to access therapy and clinical supervision. We employ: a manager and deputy manager who manage all of the proj¢¢ts as well as a team of ¢ounsellors, apply for funding and report all outcomes, employ staff and volunteers &8 welj as supporting atl placements that see clients in the agency and the day to day ning of the charity and its work and premises. In addition to this they are both qualified counsellors and the manager is a qualified clinical supervisor and children's counsellor. Both hold a small case load and cOrdinate the assessments and allocation of adult clients and are both employ¢d for 30 hours a week. We've also employed a children's

We employ a growing team of children and young people's therapists on a sessional basis to complete our work through the Early Help provision and our contracts with local GP surgeries 2nd a team of adult counsellors to fulfil the needs of projects such as our Anger Awareness project fimded throush the Police and Crime Commlssioner, Phlllp Seccombe: Innovation Fund offering trauma infonned counselling for men who have been simsted through a health professional and who have experienced a traum4 and our contract with local GP surgeries. We have had 14 placement counsellors in training> 7 clinical supervisors and have the services of13 associate counsellors and 5 reception volunteers. We have opened our service 6 days a week Monday to Friday 9- 718pm and Saturday 9- l. We have continued where possible to offer a programme of training to further develop our team. We continue to providc annual brtefings in Safeguardtng, Health and Safety and Data PrOtectiOGDPR. Much time and thought h&$ been given to achieving a reasonably sound financial foundation for the service. Our principal funding sources are currently by way of grants. a contract WAth Warwickshire County Council, contracts with 8 GP surgeries in the North of the County as well as surgeries from all over Nuneaton and Bedworth; service level agreements with schools and individually invoiced work and donations, We have contin1 to fimd raise when we have been able to. We were success1 in gecuring the following grants: We received continuation funding from the Police and Crime Commissioner, Philip Seccombe, to offer a series of Anger Awareness courses followed by limited individual counselling for the local community of Nuneaton, BedwortlL North Warwickshire and Rugby. We received funding from Coventy & Warwickshire Integratsd Care Board (the ICB) through the Community Mental Health TraDsforniation: VCSE tnnovation Fund as well as fillther continuation funding to offer trauma Inforni person centred counselling for individuals Struggling with their mental bealth who have been signposted to us from their GP. IAPT, the mentsl health team or the crisis team. Our focus for this project is primarily to be offering this support to males who do not fit the criteria for NHS services but aff struggling with their mental health and need to access support before their mental health declines further and they require more specialist or long-terni intervention from the CMHT and other NHS services.
Pagc 6 wARCKsHIRE COUNSELLING CENTRE (Cornpany Limited by Guarantee) The TnteeS present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024 We have struggled to secure grants to offer ehil(fren's counselling in the centre this year and have offered a limited service on a donation basls. We have employed a children's counsellor on a limited basis until we can secure funds to meet the costs of meeting the local need when hopefillly we can expand the Service again. We are grateful for the continued support of a number of local organisationslchurches and individuals who have continued to support us this year. Special thanks go to: The Amtico Company Limited who donated enough new flooring to re-carpet the whole of our building which was in urgent need of replacement. We were put in contact with The Amitco Company by the Make Good Grow SOCI enterprise who connect local charities in need with companies who may be able to help. Many thanks to these two organisations for their support. Coventy charity Football Cup who have supported us for many years through a donation towards offering our services. Jayne Harris who sells lavender bags to support the ¢harity and the Sheepy Magna ladies choir who rais¢d money to support us. Hugh Tibbits who donated his Birthday donations to us to provide a welfare fund for those in need. And the two regular donations that we receive who have supported us for a very long time. All Saintlst Andrews Churches who regularly support us in our work. We have used some of these donations to replace some of the furniture for the counselling rooms enabling us to provide a comfortablc welcoming environment for our clients. The charity has continued to be involved with local groups. Thanks are extended to WCAVA who have helped to keep us infonned about local initiatives, fimding and training. The manager has been a member of a small steering group and chaired the newly fornied Counselling Network Group developed through the Community Mental Health Transfomlation VCSE Team to bring counselling charities together in Warwickshire to work on 5tandaTds and partnership OprtUnItieS such &8 training and funding. The manager has attended local meetings such as the Suicide Prev¢ntion Network and the Mental Health Tran5fomiation m¢etings. The Tn review the position regarding our present premises and their limitstions at each of their meetings. The size. location and cost are all silficant considerations iflwhen properties do come on to the market and unfortunately, no suitable alternative premises became available in the year. The Trustees constantly keep the position under review.
Page 7 WARWICKSHIRE COUNSELLING CENTrE (Company Limited by Guarane) The Trustees Dresent its reDort and financial statements for the vear ended 31 March 9..4 The demand for "counselling" services (of all kinds) has continued to be significant over the year. This means that qualified counsellors can now demand much higher rates of pay. Larger national agencies are able to meet th¢se costs because of the depth and breadth of their resources - which unfortunately we do not have and are unabIe to match. The retention and particul&rly the recruitment of therapists have continued to be extremely difficult and time consuming for both the Manager and the Deputy Manager. As noted last year a number of applicants withdraw wÉthout starting having accepted an appointment following a full recrnitment process. The recrnitment of replacements then becomes very urgent in order for the agency to meet its obligations to the various funding bodies and demand for the service. Therapists are not easy to find and often the same 'attern" is rq)eated many times. New sources of funding have to be located to keep the agency financialEy secure because there is no independent'core" funding. The Manager and Deputy Managcr spend considerable time seeking and making funding applications which all denwid a great deal of their time and detsiled attention whether successful or not. Funding bodies require considerable inforniation and statisti] analysis as part of evaluating any work which they fund and demand for these is becoming greater. This applies throughout the course of a grant. Even more COMph¢81ve infonnation and analyses then have to be supplied towards and at the end of each grant period. The agency has always depended heavily upon the commitment 2nd loyalty of its manager and h¢r deputy. As always, both have responded unstintingly to the many demands made upon them, which has meant that they have each often worked well beyond their contractual hours and have also had to step-in when unexpected situations have arisen and no one else was available. The recruittnent and retention issues, the constant need to find new funding sources and to submit new applications and the growing requirements of funders for evaluative infornydtion and statistics continue to be unrelenting. These demands are all additional to their respective responsibilities for the overall management of the agency and ensuring sound administrative systems are in place and fimctioning well at all times. The Trustees owe a debt of gratitude to them both for their commitment, talen( ability and knowledge all of which they freely give to th¢ agency. The agency has continued to offer a high quality, ethical and highly respected. independent counselling service over the past tw¢lve months in spÉte of the many demands and pressures upon it.
Page 8 wARCKsHIRE COUNSELLING CETrrfRE (Company Limited by Ouarantee) The Trustees present its report and financi81 statements for the year ended 31 March 2024 The Trustee5 are therefore satisfied that th¢ charity has continued to achieve its principle purpose in canying out activiti which benefit a specific section of the community in providing a counselling service for some of the neediest people in ow cornmunkty.
