Report of Directors and Trustees
The Trustees have pleasure in presenting their Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 30[th] November 2020.
Public Benefit
When planning activities, the Trustees are mindful of the Charity Commission’s guidelines on Public Benefit and have complied with the duty of the Charity in Section 17 (5) of the Charities Act 2011, Trustee declaration–Automatic disqualification rules changed by the Charities (Protection and Social Investment) Act 2016 and follows the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Data Protection Act 2018.
The Charity’s principal activity is to promote social inclusion for the public benefit by preventing women normally (though not exclusively) resident on Wirral from becoming socially excluded and assisting them to integrate into society. The beneficiaries may have become socially excluded or be at risk of exclusion, as a result of one or more of the following factors: crime, unemployment, financial hardship, substance abuse or dependency including alcohol or drugs, poor educational or skills attainment, domestic abuse, relationship or family breakdown. The Charity also promotes the education and rehabilitation of beneficiaries who have been subject to a criminal charge and have suffered a restriction of liberty in the community or in a penal or correctional institution.
Mission, Aims, Objectives and Activities
Mission
To deliver a comprehensive, women centred approach to minimising female imprisonment, offending and disadvantaged life experiences
Purposes and Aims
Our Charity’s purpose is to deliver a comprehensive, women-centred approach to minimising female imprisonment and offending. We aim to do this by reducing the personal, social, health and economic disadvantages experienced by women through working in partnership to improve access to all relevant services and community resources.
Ensuring our work delivers our aims
Aims, objectives and activities are reviewed annually, considering both quantitative and qualitative data, plus known outcomes. The review assists in ensuring our aim, objectives and activities remain focused on our stated purposes.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS/TRUSTEES OF TOMORROW’S WOMEN FOR THE YEAR END 30[TH] NOVEMBER 2020
The focus of our work
Our main objectives for the year were to continue to develop and provide a comprehensive woman centred approach to minimising female imprisonment through providing support and utilising community services within Tomorrow’s Women Wirral (TWW).
Strategies used to meet these objectives included:
Implementing and sustaining integrated partnerships with local groups to provide support and educational services for the benefit of our women.
Provide a comfortable, supportive, safe environment for women during the day.
To develop further our excellent partnership work with MCRC in delivering a gold standard Community Payback Project for women sentenced by the Courts to perform unpaid hours of work.
Who Used and Benefitted From Our Services?
TWW is designed to benefit all women in the community, not just women involved in or on the periphery of the Criminal Justice System e.g., student placements, volunteers, women wanting to make positive lifestyle choices and changes etc. However, TWW has at its heart, a commitment to reduce female imprisonment, female offending and provide support and assistance to those women who are in recovery. Research indicates that whilst drug and alcohol plays a part in all offending, it is significantly more so with women offenders.
Highlighted by the women with whom TWW work and the statutory agencies within Wirral, TWW Board of Trustees decided to introduce a new evening Project, ‘Tomorrow’s Young Women’ (TYW). This project closes a gap in provision for young women aged 14 to 17 years.
TYW was due to be launched in September 2020 but due to the Covid Pandemic this was amended to a Virtual Launch taking place with a full face to face launch planned as soon as it is safe to do so.
TWW offers space in which partners can work with women, who may have multiple complex problems, to make best use of resources. Up to November 2020 TWW was engaging with over 195+ different partners and agencies. Merseyside CRC Interserve Justice along with National Probation Service have a dedicated team of Offender Managers who are hosted on the premises, who supervise female offenders subject to Community Orders and Licence Conditions. Merseyside CRC and NPS statistics continue to indicate a very positive improvement in compliance with court orders. TWW Empowerment Advisers (EAs) are the cornerstones of the success and compliance rates of these women.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS/TRUSTEES OF TOMORROW’S WOMEN FOR THE YEAR END 30[TH] NOVEMBER 2020
Attendance and Referrals
Prior to closure in March 2020 due to Covid 19, there had been 462 new referrals received from 01.12.19. Since then, referrals have continued to grow due to desperate need of women who required support during the pandemic period. Referrals have continued to be received from a myriad of sources (e.g. GP’s, Hospitals, Social Care, Family Support Groups, Health Clinics, Police, Churches, Schools and Self-Referrals etc.). There have been a further 323 new referrals. This high figure indicates the need for provision. TWW have provided resources continually and consistently throughout the pandemic period remaining open for scheduled appointments and crisis visits.
Courses, Programmes and Opportunities
Core Programme deliveries are designed to address the recognised criminogenic factors as below: - Attitudes Thinking and Behaviours Education, Employment and Training Relationships Drug and Alcohol Accommodation Finance Emotional Wellbeing Lifestyle and Associates Health and other factors
We have repackaged the way in which we deliver the programmes and interventions to accommodate the individual learning styles of the women and in recognition of their life experiences which are frequently characterised by negative experiences at school, poor self-image and low self-esteem. TWW acknowledges the positive impact that women who have no offending history can have upon others, so they are also fully integrated within TWW delivery.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS/TRUSTEES OF TOMORROW’S WOMEN FOR THE YEAR END 30[TH] NOVEMBER 2020
Annual Award Celebrations were held during Tomorrow’s Women’s AGM congratulating Women on their Progress and achievements.
Ash Project - Action on Street Health
Our unique design model continues to attract attention by giving support to the local community. One example is TWW ASH – a sex workers Outreach Project (funded by Merseyside Police and their Community Cash Back Fund).
Funding has continued this year to enable TWW to continue running a mini-van offering on street, non-judgemental advice, guidance and assistance. TWW Staff go out on Outreach once weekly due to Covid-19 restrictions – Tuesday night.
And Staff have delivered 90.05 hours Outreach support and have engaged approximately with 39 sex workers.
Events 01.12.19 – 17.03.20
Unfortunately, TWW’s well known and extremely well attended events were reduced significantly due to Covid Pandemic, however prior to closing the doors to the public we were able to hold the annual: -
Christmas party – 147 attendances International Women’s Day – 191 attendances
Progress to Date
In Partnership with HMCTS, National Probation Service and MCRC, Rehabilitation Activity Requirements (RARs) are delivered from TWW. This represents a sentencing option for Wirral Magistrates, Liverpool and Chester Crown Courts which is designed to assist in diverting women from custody. All aspects required for RAR completion is carried out at TWW to complement the work of Senior/Case Managers and Probation Officers. This allows all women to integrate with other females within the safe confines of our TWW Charity to learn and share experiences to avoid offending/reoffending.
The RARs provide a series of targeted interventions which are tailored to the individual female offender’s needs through a multi- agency, multi- disciplinary, problem solving approach to:
-
Address reasons for offending.
-
Reduce the risk of re-offending and break the cycle of female offending.
-
Improve compliance with Orders and facilitate engagement with agencies; and
-
Tackle the problem of intergenerational crime.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS/TRUSTEES OF TOMORROW’S WOMEN FOR THE YEAR END 30[TH] NOVEMBER 2020
Despite the Pandemic, information received from Merseyside CRC and NPS confirm significant successful outcomes in CJ Orders due to our targeted contribution and partnership work. Emergency Delivery Models were quickly put in place, consisting of new IT equipment, new Smart Mobile telephones, TWW Programmes and Courses adapted to be delivered virtually and in socially distanced small groups, adhering to Government Guidelines and Health and Safety Risk Assessments at all times.
The typical profile of women within our target group is that they have multiple complex problems. Research shows that the women will probably have experienced between four and six of the following and will often have had negative experiences with agencies making them reluctant to seek help despite the magnitude of their problems.
-
Low self-esteem and self-worth
-
Social exclusion/isolation
-
Poor anger control and parenting skills
-
Violence/abuse
-
Traumatised behaviour
-
Alcohol/drug misuse
-
History of being exploited.
-
Poor housing
-
Lack of skills
-
Massive experience of loss.
-
Lack of opportunities for training and or employment
Strategic Targets
Strategic Targets for 2020 were successfully implemented.
Strategic Targets for 2021 Focusing on Recovery Plan for exiting Covid Pandemic.
-
Recruitment of additional staff to anticipate increase of demand and growth of TWW following the pandemic.
-

Awards and Celebration
Trustees extol the amazing dedication of Staff to our stated Mission, Purposes and Aims. When National Government Lockdown Rules prevented our target group from coming to the centre, our amazing staff thought and worked in an oblique manner.
119 personal hygiene hampers were distributed to women in their homes plus opportunity for expression of difficulties which staff could address.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS/TRUSTEES OF TOMORROW’S WOMEN FOR THE YEAR END 30[TH] NOVEMBER 2020
Programmes, Courses, and wellbeing opportunities increased online with tremendous take-up.
119 of women suffering with emotional and mental health problems were supported via in depth telephone conversations.
Our forward thinking, hardworking, dedicated, female staff are to be congratulated and celebrated. Trustees are rightly proud of these very special women!
Financial Review
Total income for the year amounted to £520,261 with an annual net surplus recorded of £ 102,257.
The charity aims to utilise reserves and maximise income in 2020/2021 thereby continuing to provide its excellent service.
Reserves policy
It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are free reserves of the charity, at a minimum level which equates to approximately three months of expenditure, to ensure that the charity can continue to operate should difficulties in receiving income occur in the short term. As expenditure in 2020/21 is projected to be at an increased level to 2019/20 given the increase in headcount and staff (2020: £418,004 see SOFA page 14, Total Expenditure), this would equate to c. £125,000.
Actual unrestricted reserves held at the year-end amounted to £403,343 (see Note 12), £15,549 of which was tied up in fixed assets (see Note 14). This equates to approximately 9.3 months of predicted 2020/21 expenditure.
The Trustees consider that these overall reserves provide sufficient funds to cover management and administration support costs for the minimum period and aim to maintain the reserves at these levels for the foreseeable future and seek to ensure a greater proportion of these reserves are held in liquid form going forward. They aim to continue examining potential further partnerships which are deemed to be beneficial to the women.
Structure Governance and Management
Organisational Structure
The Board of Trustees, which has members from a variety of relevant backgrounds, held six meetings and are responsible for the strategic direction and policy of TWW.
A scheme of delegation is in place and the day-to-day responsibility for the provision of the services rest with the Operations Manager and the Chief
10
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS/TRUSTEES OF TOMORROW’S WOMEN FOR THE YEAR END 30[TH] NOVEMBER 2020
Executive Officer in conjunction with the Chair. The Chief Executive Officer and Chair are responsible for ensuring that TWW delivers the services specified and that key performance indicators are met.
Trustees’ Responsibilities in relation to Financial Statements
Trustees are responsible for preparing the financial statements led by the Treasurer in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accountancy Practice.
Company Law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of TWW and of the surplus or deficit of TWW for the period.
In preparing the statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently.
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent.
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Centre will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records, which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of TWW and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of TWW and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS/TRUSTEES OF TOMORROW’S WOMEN FOR THE YEAR END 30[TH] NOVEMBER 2020 TOMORROW’S WOMEN WIRRAL NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30[TH] NOVEMBER 2020
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) Basis of preparation
The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A, and the Companies Act 2006. The Financial statements, incorporating a Statement of Financial Activities, have been prepared in accordance with Statement of Recommended Practice SORP FRS 102 – “Accounting and Reporting by Charities.”
The financial statements have been prepared as a going concern and will continue to for at least twelve months after the signing of the accounts.
b) Statutory information
The organisation is a registered Charity and a company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales. The liability in respect of the guarantee as set out in the memorandum is limited to £1 per member of the company. The company’s registered number; charity registered number and registered office can be found on the ‘Reference and administration details’ on page 2.
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).
c) Income
Intangible income, which comprises donated services, is included in income at a valuation, which is an estimate of the financial cost borne by the donor where such a cost is quantifiable and measurable. No income is recognised when there is no financial cost borne by a third party.
Gifts in kind comprised of assets, repairs, stationery and utilities donated for the use of the Charity are included at valuation and recognised as income in the year they are receivable.
Income from grants, donations and other income is included when receivable.
d) Expenditure
The cost headings comprise expenditure, including staff costs, directly attributable to the organisation’s activity. Where costs cannot be directly attributed, they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of the resources.
-
Generating funds include the costs incurred in order to hold fundraising events.
-
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services.
e) Fund accounting
-
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the organisation.

18
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS/TRUSTEES OF TOMORROW’S WOMEN FOR THE YEAR END 30[TH] NOVEMBER 2020
f) Income and expenditure
All income and expenditure is accounted for on the accruals basis.
g) Significant judgements and estimations
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future.
The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below;
When an asset is purchased it is categorised into an asset class, the depreciation policy of each class estimates the economic life of all assets within the class. The depreciation policy of each asset class is determined by management and reviewed regularly for appropriateness. The depreciation policy adopted is based on historical experience as well as considering the future events which may impact the useful economic life of all assets within each class, such as changes in market demands.
h) Fixed assets
Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost or valuation, less estimated residual values, of tangible fixed assets over their estimated useful lives to the charity. The annual depreciation rates and methods are as follows:
| Leasehold improvements | - 10% on cost |
|---|---|
| Fixtures and fittings |
- 20% on cost |
| Computer equipment | - 33% on cost |
| Motor Vehicles | - 33% on cost |
Assets are carried in the balance sheet at written down historical cost.
Gifted assets are capitalised if valued over £250 at the point of receipt.
Impairment reviews are carried out on assets where an indication is given that the recoverable amount is below the net book value. No assets have been subject to impairment to date.
i) Financial instruments
The following assets and liabilities are classified as financial instruments: prepayments, accruals, and other creditors.
Financial assets and liabilities that are measured at amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss in recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities, and the historic cost is included in the notes to the accounts.
