ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
During the year we maintained the running of our services remotely. Offering counselling and a choice of support services to adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse, incest, and rape.
We offered an online Pre-Therapy Group.
Our helpline service was expanded to offer email and text options to increase access to this service during the challenges of the pandemic.
We increased our ISVA (Independent Sexual Violence Advisor) service by securing funding for another ISVA post.
Not all funding is secure for year 2021 – 2022.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
SAIL's funding is secure until March 2022.Along with other small charity organisations, SAIL is reliant on grant funding for our core service. Within this funding landscape, it has been challenging to plan or develop the service. Nevertheless, SAIL, with the aid of sound financial management and the support of staff and volunteers, generated a positive financial outcome for the period. The Core funding sources for SAIL are currently the Ministry of Justice, The National Lottery Community Fund and Derby and Derbyshire CCG.
It is the long-term aim of SAIL, which is particularly vulnerable to cuts in statutory funding, to build up unrestricted funds (the free reserves of the organisation) equivalent to three months average annual expenditure. In this financial year, three months running costs would be £29,000.

The charity had £203,875 in reserves on 31st March 2021 of which £102,868 were unrestricted. The Trustees feel that this level of unrestricted reserves is sufficient to meet the demands of our reserves policy.
FUTURE PLANS
Our aims during the next 12 months are to return to face to face services as we work to assist our community's focus on recovery. We plan to continue to maintain and develop SAIL's on-going work by recruiting new volunteers. As well as further developing the organisation by strengthening governance, recruiting new Trustees, and completing the accreditation of all of our services.
