Aehievemcnts and pcrformanee
rom I st April 2020 thraugh the 3 1st of March 2021 we hgve supported 36 Women and 42 Children within th¢
refiige accommodation and a further 6 families have been suptx)rtcd ￿..ith re%ettlemellt and siipport services. It
ha% been a challcnging 12 moiith period alld the pandemic has mcant the service has adapted and developed to
find new ways of working and supporting our bencficiaries. We continued to accept referrals for familie% in
cri%is and continued to provide face to face support throughout the COVID 19 pandcmic. We worked in
partner%hip with a large number of other orgallisatiQT]s advocating to ensure that virtual siipport has continued
from other specialist support services to gFain the best outcomes for women and childrei). We have worked iii
pa￿lership with our local authoritv and housiiig departinent to expand our accommodation with 3 further
propertie5 now available for families to move into following an initial period withiii refiige where intensive
5UPPOrt ha5 been provided and they are ready to move on but awaiting offers of petynanent accommodation.
This has iiicreased the Iiuinber of women we are supporting by 50010 and doubled the number of childreii iii our
service at any time.
Oui continued involvement with the Response to Complexity project has also enabled us to ¢oi)tinue close
working relationships with other organisations and provided opportunities to provide wraparound support for
women fa¢in¥ multiple disadvai)tage.
Our community services such as the freedom programme and face to face resettlemeni services were
temporarily put on hold due to the pandemic but ihese have had ihe funding extended and we have provided
inforn)ation sessions for professionals through online provision. We coniinued to support families in
resettlemeni with praciical support over the phone or through provision of items ihey have needed including
food parcels and a number of families who had left the service were able 10 get back in touch for advice.
reassurance and signposting to other agencies.
We have had an overwhelming amount of support from other organisations and groups and this has enabled us
to continue 10 develop. Tara's Angels have provided ongoing siippon helping us to meet the needs of our
families Ihroughout the year and panicularly during times when we were in full lockdown and women struggled
to go to the shops due to restrictions. Tara's Angels have provided us with regular food packages and provided
essentl81 cleaning and protective iiems that were needed to keep people safe and sent items including purchasing
lle￿." televisioiis for all the bedrooms to keep fainilies entertained while all local amenities were closed.
We have partncrcd with a local service who have continued to mentor staff and provide support around th¢
teams mental hcalth and ￿ell-beIng along with training for the team on working in a trduma infonned way. The
specialist children's and families therapist has provided essential sociall}, distanced support within refuge to th¢
young people who Iieeded this Inore than ever when schools were c105ed aiid they were unable to access other
5UPPOrt Iietworks. Staff have all used hotne-WOTking opportiiiiitie5 for personal development and many 01)line
training opportunities which have expanded teain knowledge and expertise.
Soroptomi5ts have continued to support U5 Wlth welcome package5 for woinen when they coine iiito refiige and
other donations and funding for families in need. Buddj. bagF5 foundation have a150 provided welcoine bagF5 and
the Toy Trust provided kids In boxes for all ol. our residents which really supported the work of our children's
siipport worker and support team generally who have provided n)ore activities inside the refuge accommodation
and garden thai) ever before to keep people entertained and ensure the mental health and well-beii)g of
beneficiaries.
We have worked hard to expand our online presence through social media to both reach women who may be in
need and to expand our supporter base and therefore secure continuiiy of service into the fuiure. We held a
successful online appeal "make a safehouse a home" over the winier period and have recruited the support of
several professional volunteers Ihrough the SUPPLlft of the Media Trust.

Finaneial rcvie
avcrall, dcspite challenges faced, this year has been a good year and our financial position is healthy with som¢
monies moved into a %cparate bank accoullt to provide security throu£h the finaiicial services compen%ation
scheme. The funds securcd are allowing us to coiitinue our project purposes and div¢r%ifying our funding
streams has hclpcd us to Continue co-ordinating ne￿. projects. improve fa¢ilitie% and provide additianal
opportunities for the beneficiarie5 in our accommodation and thos¢ families who may need our service in th¢
coming year.
Prlnelpthl rlsAs &ndAncerlalntles
Lack of income
The refuge not being full to capacity for an extended period of time would have a negative atTect on our income.
We have a number of time limited Clintracted services and various different grant funding streams which are due
to come tl) an end but we are working to identify future funding opportunities and further diversify our income
sources and increase subscriptions and donations for increased stability. A downtum in the economy can affect
fundraising so we are mindful to diversify our funding streams to miiigate this possibiliry.
Having inadequate insiirance cover in the event of a claim could cause financial detriment so we seek to ensure
that the InSur￿lCe protection is viable annually.
rraud is always a cojicern in biisiness and so we have in place a robust financial management policy and clear
process which iiiclude separation of authorisation levels.
Poliry oll reserves
NCWA wish to maintain a reserve amount of 6 months running costs to Cover unexpected and unplanned events
so that the charitv's ￿'ork can continue.
These might include
Covering unforeseen day-to-day operational costs, for example.. employing temporary staff to cover a
long-tenn sick absence.
A f911 in a source of income, such as reduction or cessation in funding arrangements.
Planned commitments, or designations, that cannot be met by future income alone. for example plans for a
major capital project.
The need to fund potential deficits in a cash budget, for example money may need to be spent before a ￿nding
grant is received.
In deciding the level of reserves trustees will take into account NCWA'S annual budget.
The mana¥ement committee may designate reserves for at) identified purpose (maternity leavelsickness
cover15ettlenient}.
The Mat￿¥£￿£￿t committee and manager are responsible for ensurin¥ that the level atjd use of reserve5 15
