NEW LEAF SUPPORT LIMITED REGISTERED NUMBER: 07754800 REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE Charltable activities Our team consists of a full time IDVA seiCe ManagerlCEO, part time support workers, IDVA'S, and a part time wellbeing co-ordinator. We have also gained volunteers with a variety of skills to support the charity in its gr0h. During the year 1 April 2024 - 31 March 2025 we had 165 new referrals averaging 13.75 referrals per month, a huge increase of 92 % on the previous year. The impact of this demonstrates the ever-growing need for our seNices in the Swale area of Kent, with very limited funding. An oveNiew of activilies during Ihe period include: Volunteer trainee counsellors facilitated free 'client led, counselling sessions. Recognising the inter-generational nature of domestic abuse we have continued lo support the children of our clients, through play activities in school holidays. This is something the Charity would like to extend our support for. Our support work for preventative and educational activities, for clients and children, have conlinued with the delivery of one Phoenix programme and other mindfulness and group wellbeing activities designed to build confidence building and self-esteem: helping our clients to rebuild their lives. We delivered a Phoenix programme to female inmates of an open prison. Additional activities included.. wellbeing and mindfulness classes, Easter cooking, cooking on a budget, Swale allotment attendance, weekly gardening club, dancing to keep fit, finance and budgeting workshop, a variety of male support groups, children's summer sports, a new12-week empowemient coffee morning and weekly crafts groups. Fundraising activities Fundraising is a significant challenge for the charity, and we are proactively seeking to attract longer term funding, specifically funding to cover core operating costs. During the year we continued to raise the funds necessary to assist with the operation of New Leaf through applying for local and national granls and through our fundraising stream the Friends of New Leaf who raised a small amount of money from local boot fairs, and fetes. We have been fortunate to have the support of local supermarkets who have contribuled food and sanitary products to our foodbank which runs successfully. We would like to thank the many volunteers who have assisted the charity during the year, attending training and supporting our clients through Iheir wellbeing. Without their continued support we would never be able to provide all the Services we are currently offering. We would also like to thank the members of the public who have supported the charity, local businesses, and all local and national funders. Page 2
NEW LEAF SUPPORT LIMITED REGISTERED NUMBER: 07754800 REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE Strategic Priorities Our strategic priorities outline our focus for the next five years: Sustainability - To be financially sustainable. specifically, to secure long term funding for core operating costslservices to deliver the services to empower clients to make positive change.

For example, extending our prevention impact through working in partnership with the prison service, local schools and the development of a male IDVA service. Demands in service - to continue to look at funding avenues including corporate funding, fundraising streams and improved bid writing and application results. FINANCIAL REVIEW Reserves policy The charity needs to build a level of reserves that will ensure that it can continue to seNice the costs of the Charity. The directors agreed it is prudent to hold reserves that equate to six months costs which are based on the anlicipated service provision in the next financial year. Golng concern The charity currently has a deficit on unrestricted reseNes. In July 2024 new Trustees were recruited to the Board of Directors including a Fundraising and Finance Director, and we have reviewed our funding and budgeting processes and requiremenls. This includes implementing a full cost operating model to increase both restricted and unrestricted core costs funding. Additionally, we established a Friends of New Leaf fundraising stream to organise and promote activities specifically to generate unrestricted funds e.g. we have been appointed as the Charity of the Year for a local golf club who will raise funds for the charity throughout next year. We have also been gifted a sum of money in a will, (currently pending probate) and intend to use this to reduce the current deficit on unrestricted funds. Page 3
