Image Annual Report 6[th] April 2022 – 5[th] April 2023
Image has been operating, since 1990, providing support for those making pregnancy decisions and for those who have experienced abortion. We also support people who have experienced miscarriage and child loss or separation. Whilst our services are offered to people of all faiths and none, our recognized training courses are specifically to equip Christians and churches to provide a compassionate response in these areas.
Image is an approved centre with Open Awards for training and delivers two 60-hour courses in various parts of the UK through our own approved trainers. These courses are also recognised by the Association of Christian Counsellors. We also run a Training Trainers course for those who wish to become an approved image trainer.
Image relies very heavily on volunteers for both its Helpline and training (with a core team of 17 but also using volunteer trainers from other centres). During the period from 6[th] April 2022 up to 5[th] April 2023 we employed 3 paid staff: a Training Coordinator, a Pregnancy Helpline Coordinator (both of whose hours were increased, in November, to 16 hours per week) and a Family Services Coordinator (8 hours per week).
