Report of Directors and Trustees
The Trustees have pleasure in presenting their Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 30[th] November 2021. This being Tomorrow’s Women’s 10th Anniversary year.
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, because of one or more of the following factors: crime, poor health mentally or physically, 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.
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 and offending through providing support and utilising community services within Tomorrow’s Women Wirral (TWW).
Strategies used to meet these objectives included:
Implementing and sustaining integrated local partnerships to provide additional support and educational services for the benefit of women.
Provide a comfortable, supportive, safe environment for women during the day.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS/TRUSTEES OF TOMORROW’S WOMEN WIRRAL YEAR ENDED 30[TH] NOVEMBER 2021
To develop further our excellent partnership work with MCRC (since June 2021, The Probation Service, when unification took place) to deliver 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 adult women in the community wanting to make positive lifestyle choices and changes, not just women involved in or on the periphery of the Criminal Justice System. This also includes student placements from local universities, and wonderful volunteers. 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 play a part in all offending, it is significantly more so with women.
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. Funded by Merseyside Police (Violence Reduction Unit) a virtual launch took place in 2020 due to Covid, but we were delighted to hold a face-to-face launch in September 2021. During this year, 36 TYW engaged with the Programme.
TWW offers space in which staff and partners can work with women who may have multiple complex problems, to make best use of resources. Up to November 2021 TWW was engaging with over 199 different partners and agencies. The Probation Service have a dedicated team of Offender Managers who are hosted on the premises, who supervise females subject to Community Orders and Licence Conditions. The Probation Service 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.
Attendance and Referrals
Covid clearly had an impact on delivery, however, TWW remained open throughout the periods when other areas and services closed. Referrals continued and our delivery model was adapted to in house crisis, scheduled appointments, outreach deliveries and virtual 1 – 1 until May 2021 when in house groups recommenced.
Since then, referrals have continued to grow due to desperate need of women who required support during the 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.). Over this annual period there have been 1019 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 selfimage 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.

Also, through our Partnerships with Merseyside CRC, Wirral Metropolitan College, TWW provides opportunities for women to enrol on College courses by offering taster courses at the Centre. For example: -
Women have completed and received certificates in the following:
Level 2 in Food Safety & Hygiene Mental Health & Wellbeing & Me 5-wk nail course Introduction into Counselling & Mentoring
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 80 Hours of Outreach support and have engaged approximately with 39 sex workers.
Events 01.12.2020 – 30.11.2021
Unfortunately, TWW’s well known and extremely well attended events were reduced significantly due to Covid Pandemic, however International Women’s Day and TWW AGM took place virtually with views on Social Media Sites. It was also TWW’s 10[th] Anniversary Year, and the date was recognised and celebrated with an online event attended by partners, women, staff past and present.
Progress to Date
In Partnership with HMPPS, The Probation Service are based within TWW. This gives Courts a sentencing option for Wirral Magistrates, Liverpool, and Chester Crown Courts and beyond, which is designed to assist in diverting women from custody. All aspects required for Rehabilitation Activity Requirements (RAR) completion is carried out at TWW to complement the work of Probation staff. 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’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 WIRRAL YEAR ENDED 30[TH] NOVEMBER 2021
Despite the Pandemic, information received from The Probation Service 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

Adapted Model of Delivery
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.
-
841 personal hygiene hampers were distributed to women at their homes. This gave an opportunity for women to express any issues to staff.
-
82 Children’s Packs were distributed to the children of women registered with TWW.
-
41 Hampers were distributed.
-
Programmes, Courses, and wellbeing opportunities increased online with tremendous take-up.
-
4016 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!
Structure Governance and Management
Organisational Structure
The Board of Trustees, which has members from a variety of relevant backgrounds, held six virtual 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 Chief Executive Officer. The Chief Executive Officer overseen by the Chair of Trustees are responsible for ensuring that TWW delivers the services specified and that key performance indicators are met.
Financial Review
Total income for the year amounted to £468,060, with an annual net surplus recorded of £36,301.
The charity aims to utilise reserves and maximise income in 2021/2022 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 2021/22 is projected to be at an increased level to 2020/21 given the increase in staff costs, (2021: £431,759, see SOFA page 13, Total Expenditure), this would equate to c. £132,000.
Unrestricted reserves are expected to reduce significantly during the next financial year, as they will be utilised to finance the Charity’s expansion and development plans to establish an additional centre for the Cheshire West and Chester area. Forecasts show that up to £120,000 of unrestricted reserves may be utilised for this purpose, leaving expected unrestricted reserves of £340,000 at November 2022, which would equate to 7.5 months of predicted 2021/22 and 2022/23 expenditure.
9 of 25
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS/TRUSTEES OF TOMORROW’S WOMEN WIRRAL YEAR ENDED 30[TH] NOVEMBER 2021
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.
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.

TOMORROW’S WOMEN WIRRAL NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30[TH] NOVEMBER 2021
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.
