Joanna Leeds Trustees’ report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2021

Objectives and activities

The charity's objects

To relieve the charitable needs of vulnerable women and girls, particularly those who are at risk of or involved in prostitution in Leeds, or such other locations as the trustees may from time to time think fit, and to fulfil such other purposes which are exclusively charitable according to the law of England and Wales and are connected to the charitable work of the charity.

The charity's main activities

Joanna works with women and girls, particularly those at risk of or involved in prostitution in Leeds. Through practical and emotional support, befriending and mentoring we aim to enable these women to exit prostitution and sustain a new life.

Public benefit statement

In setting our objectives and planning our activities Joanna Project's trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit. Our focus in particular is on improving the . safety, health and wellbeing of the vulnerable women in contact with the charity, in accordance with Joanna Project's purpose.

The ‘heads of charity’ Joanna Project operates within is the relief of those in need, by reason of youth, age, illhealth, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage.

Achievements and performance

We work with women who have encountered multiple disadvantages and whose complex needs require a long term relational approach. - The community aspect of Joanna Project has been slowly rebuilding, despite the challenges of pandemic restrictions. Our weekly Thursday Open House is bustling once again, with the benefit of Bevan Healthcare Van and other professionals who value the relaxed environment for building rapport with the women.

A major benefit to our service has been the successful fundraising for and purchase of a replacement outreach vehicle in September 2021; this is used daily for daytime outreach and our twice-weekly evening outreach service which was restarted in June following the easing of coronavirus regulations. During lockdown Leeds Council closed the ‘Managed Approach’ area, yet the efficacy of our close working relationship with the specialist police officers continues, regularly accelerating the provision of support to the women encountered.

An exciting new aspect to Joanna Project has been the launch of two support groups, separately for alcohol and drug addiction recovery. These user-led groups met weekly to set goals, share experiences reflectively, learn together and undertake therapeutic activities with input from staff with occupational therapy expertise and experience. This development represents a significant milestone in our service, indicative of our intention to grow through challenges. Another proud achievement was supporting four women to Residential Rehabilitation, a record number.

Financial review

The net expenditure for the year was £19,225, including net expenditure of £-1,244 on unrestricted funds and net expenditure of £20,469 on restricted funds after transfers.

We have not identified any material uncertainties that cast doubt on the ability of Joanna Leeds to continue as a going concern in the short term. We continue to take a prudent approach to the cost base with a recent example being a decision to delay the replacement of a recent vacancy. This short term postponement will be reviewed in April when we hope to receive news of our successful National Lottery grant application.

The additional uncertainty and expense caused by Covid (i.e. IT equipment to facilitate different ways of working) incurred in 2021, is not expected to be repeated in 2022. As a result it is expected that a greater proportion of time, energy and resources can be directed towards the primary aim of the charity.

Trustees’ report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2021

Reserves policy

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £89,785.

Joanna Project's reserves policy is to hold free reserves (unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible assets) of between 3 and 6 months of total annual expenditure in order to enable the smooth running of the charity and to allow for an orderly winding up should the charity need to close.
