Opportunity: ESOL Classes, Community.. Gardening, Parties, olher events and activities Support: Resource Room, Crisis Support, Specialist Support {eg FGM, honour-based abuso) We are the only IoGal provider of free, femalé-only English classes wlth a crèche. The women we SUPPOrt are often isolated and facing barriers to accessing seNices such as healthcare. housing and education. Many are claiming asylum, have refugee status or are here on a visa. Virtually all are second language English speakers, often struggling with mental health and needing emotlonal and practlcal support. We support women to grow in their skills and confidence, and with a wide range of issues causing th8m stréss and distress. We have chosen not to prepare our students for ESOL exams, freeing us up to teach lo the needs of the learners and not to the exam. Because of the warmth of the relatlonshlps formed at TWC, especially through our ESOL classes, many women build trust with our staff and volunteers and than reach out for further support. ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE 1. ESOL Wè saw a big increase in ESOL r6glstrations to nearty 300, with 90 children regist8r8d in crèche across both venues. On any one mornlng averaged 40-45 women in class and around 8-10 kids in creche, but numbers fluctuated hugely. The biggest groups were from IraqlKurdistan {86 women), Syria (50) and Yemen (38). We had students from around 30 countries including Albania, Bangladesh. China, Eritrea, Guinea- Bissau, Hungary, Iran, Lebanon. Morocco, Oman. Pakistan. Romania, Somalia. Turkiye, Ukraine and Vietnam.

Donations Room We estimate Ihal at least 150 women received items, wilh demand continuing lo grow. Autumn 2023 saw on average 10 visits per week,. this increased to 25-30 visits per week in tem time, and an average of 15-20 perweek in tha summar holidays. We continued to respond lo health visitors, referrals of women who are claiming asylum. have children or are expecting a baby, and are newly dispersed in the Merseyside region. On average they referred 2 or 3 women per month. We delivered items directly to the women if they COLtld not collect th6m. We saw a significant increase in migrant families being hous8d in hotels, sometimes wlhout cooklng facllities. We took extra items such as slow cookers and air fryers whenever we could. The vast majority of items we gave out were donated, although we were able to buy a few items with restricted funding to support Syrian families. We continue to receive a large number of donated items through our growing support network, which includes volunleèrs, family and frfends, around 15 churches around Merseyside, the Christian Fellowship School, and the Motherfs Union. We are also grateful for other donations e.g. frorn supermarket Community Champions and from companies such as Proctor & Gamble. who donaled some nappies. Demand for kitchen Items and furniture (e.g. wardrobes) massively outstripped our limited supplies. In light of the massive needs, we applied for an Our Liverpool grant specifically for our Donations Room project.
ToxfETH WOMEN'S CENTRE TRUSTEES, REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST AUGUST 2024 3. Addressing food Insecurlty We signposted women in Liverpool to Ioc81 food pantries. Wa gave Foodbank vouchars mainly to individuals and families who were rehoused outside of Liverpool, to help them find their local food pantries. We also collected food ad hoc from Fairshare. We delivered leftover food Items from Pret a Mangor to peopl8 who are claiming asylurn. Usually this meant one hostel on Wednesday evening, another on Thursday evenlng and homes, hotels or other hostels on Friday evening. We mad8 new links with iwo host81s run by Whitechapel, where women we know were placed. It is difficult to quantify the total number of people who received Pret food across the year, but the number of food items varied from under 30 to over 100 food items per night. Generally, we easily gave away everything halal, bul if we had meat left over we usually look it to a nearby hostel for homeless people. 4. Crisls and speclalist support Our Centre Manager and a small team of volunteers under her supetyision continued to support women and families through very difficult circumstances: 8 Afghan families in September 2023 faclng homelessness after the bridging hotel closed. A child naèdlng safeguarding helping mum establish a safe anvironmènt, with NHS staff. A woman having chemotherapy- providing childcare and going wlth her. A woman leaving her abusive husband and obtalning a reslraining order A couple reIving threatening messages working with police. findlng safe accommodation. woman having flashbacks who took an overdose supporting her over the next few weeks. At least 15 families experiencing homelessness after receiving asylum. 2 women told they would be sent to Rwanda rinding solicitors, supporting Ihrough anxiety. 3 famllles appealing their asylum decision. 5. Candle workshops In Spring 2024 Our Centrè Manager ran a workshop around the notion of Home as part of her PhD r8search, and Ihis had an unforeseen outcome. As the women started to think about what 'home' means, they spoke abotjt smells like jasmlne and lavender that reminded them of their garden In their home country. and asked if they could learn how to make candles to remind them of home. A Syrian woman who attends ESOL classes at the Tab offered to facilitate a candle workshop. We initially thought this would just b8 one session, but it proved so popular that we had at least ten by the end of the summer terml The women seemed to enjoy making the candles and chatting about their home- thare were tears and laughter at every workshop. 6. Other projects Partles we held a number of 'bring and share. partles for women and children. approximately twice a term in Toxtelh and Wavertree. This offered the women a safe spac8 to relax, eat. chat, laugh and danca together. and gave their children the chance to enjoy food, crafts and games. getting her to hospltal and
ToxfETH WOMEN'S CENTRE TRUSTEES, REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST AUGUST 2024 We did not run Zumba sessions or Drama workshops this year due to a combination of changing circumstances for individuals and focusing as a charity on core costs this year. In their feedback at the end of the year, some of the women asked for exercise activities to resume. The bridging hotel for Afghans closed in August 2023, with families rehoused locally or further afield. Our Centre Manager continued to support families where she could, but much less intensively than Ihe previous two years. She was emulionally exhausted by her time there and In some ways is still recovering. After invesling heavily in our Jasmine Garden project last year with restricted funding from the Metro Mayor's Communily Envlronment Fund, we were not able lo do much. This was partly due to investing tlme elsewhere, and partly due to a wall in the garden Ilapsing and restricting access for much of the year. 7. Respondlng to spirltual needs We remained committed to helping women of any and all faiths equally, respecting the fact that whlle some women wish to ask more about what we believe as Christians, others may not. Our activities were not primarily evangelistic, but we included very short talks al parties and evenls through the year to mention the significance of various events in th8 calendar to Chrislians (e.g. Christmas, Eastar, International Women's Day). Our Centre Manager is very relational and responsive, and found Ihat she had many informal conversations about prayer and faith. We remain8d happy to signpost wornen to local churches If they wanted to know mor8 about the Christian falth, or If they were believers seeking baptlsm and Chrlstian fellowship. Three rnore Iranian women were baptised at the Toxteth Tabemacle thls year. 8. Stafflng In Septemb8r 2023 we made our second crèche staff post permanent Itarrn-time only) rather than fixed-temi, due to the continuing growth in dernand for crèche places. Our Administrator decldad In summer 2024 to move on to ESOL teaching. We wera dellghted to appoint a woman from Nlger18 who has herself benéfited from the charity's support. This was the first time we have been able to employ someone who is not white and Brttish. For Ihe first time, In Summer 2024 we paid a volunteer to cover for our Centre Manager (particularly crisis and speclallst support for the women) to help her swrtch off more fully. Unfortunately, some of her holiday coincided with tha Southport attack and its aftermath, during which many oflhe women were very scared by false rumours. 9. Fundralsing We continued our strenuous efforts to increase our annual Income. We had around 25 regular givers and received gifts from 8 churches. We are delighted to thank Toxteth Tabernacle, Christ Church Liverpool, West Kirby URC, Grace Baptist Southport. Ebenezer Chapel, Bethany Prenton, Bethel Green Lane and Bryn Independent Methodlst for their financlal support this year. We secured around £54,000 of other funding for core costs from 14 funders. The smallest awards were £500 and the largest were £10.000. Many were previous funders, but wè also reached oul to new funders where possible.
TOXTETH WOMEN'S CENTRE TRUSTEES, REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST AUGUST 2024 We secured an increase of restricted funds. This just about COV8red outgoings bul did not allow us lo rebuild our reseNes as we had hoped. We had another successful fundraising concert with Rock Choir in April 2024. An Iranian woman provided some of Ihe refreshments and a handful of other women were able to attend. Off the back of thls. we were able to arrange a morning performance by Rock Choir for the women at the centre th8 following Autumn.
