Trafford Rape Crisis Limited

Trustees’ annual report

for the year ended 31 March 2021

The trustees have referred to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning how our activities will contribute to the aims and objectives that have been set. They are informed in this task by robust performance management and monitoring systems that capture the outcomes - and outputs - of our work, and by comprehensive consultation processes that incorporate service user, staff, volunteer and stakeholder experience of service gathered through a variety of formal and informal processes.

The trustees review the aims, objectives and activities of the charity each year. This report looks at what the charity has achieved and the outcomes of its work in the reporting period. The trustees report the success of each key activity and the benefits the charity has brought to those groups of people that it is set up to help. The review also helps the trustees ensure the charity's aims, objectives and activities remained focused on its stated purposes.

Our activities benefit the public by:

Achievements and performance

The charity's main activities and who it tries to help are described below. All its charitable activities focus on Women and girls in Trafford and Greater Manchester and beyond and are undertaken to further Trafford Rape Crisis Limited’s charitable purposes for the public benefit.

In March 2021 1 trustee re-joined the existing team of 5.

TRC has continued to be an active member of Rape Crisis England & Wales and are signed up to their National Standards (RCNSS) which were renewed in 2019. We were particularly recognised for our feminist ethos and working practices and invited to speak to other centres around working with a feminist ethos.

This year the COVID pandemic impacted our face-to-face services and required us to create new and improved ways of delivering our service, whilst exercising due care and diligence towards the health and wellbeing of our staff team, volunteers and service users. We were grateful for additional COVID funding offered by funders to help centres to provide the necessary precautions, and additional services.

The lack of face-to face working had an impact on our paid worker team, and the trustees provided regular support and acknowledgement of the team.

It soon became apparent that the isolation created by the pandemic restrictions resulted in a significant increase in violence against women.

Trustees’ annual report

for the year ended 31 March 2021

We used social media to reach more women, and provide information and advice, including partnering with the Ministry of Justice in an online video for survivors.

The number of volunteers dropped initially as some moved away to spend lockdown with family and some were not able to continue volunteering due to demands on time and changing personal circumstances.

We were able to keep the helpline open, within COVID guidelines, using stringent precautionary measures in the Centre. This was only possible because of a tremendous effort on the part of our volunteers, despite the increased challenges they faced of working from home, additional health issues, caring responsibilities, childcare and home education, as well as the overarching increase in stress levels and impact on mental health wellbeing. Thanks to this phenomenal commitment we were able to keep the helpline open 98%, delivering 2,322 helpline contacts, and the email service was covered 100%, delivering 187 email supports.

We cancelled our training for new volunteers in April because of lockdown, but were able to do this training in September and October, part safely-distanced face-to-face and part online. Because of the trauma-based content of our work, some of this training has to be done face to face for trainees’ welfare and support. An additional 11 volunteers joined bringing our total to 26 volunteers.

The counselling service was able to continue online on a secure platform provided by Rape Crisis England and Wales, telephone sessions were also offered as an alternative. Most of the clients took up these options, with five women choosing to wait for face-to-face sessions to start again.

Counsellors received training in providing online counselling. 340 counselling sessions were delivered.

Regular contact was put in place for women waiting for this service, to address the increased isolation. Weekly support calls were put in place and a weekly text went out to 20 women.

In partnership with MSC Foodbank, Christmas food parcels were delivered to some of the women who use our counselling service, who were struggling financially.

Alongside the existing regular clinical supervision for our volunteers who work on the helpline, email and counselling services, TRC put in place additional resources and support for wellbeing and resilience, plus additional training. A weekly, virtual, volunteer drop-in support group was set up, also wellbeing and self-care sessions were provided plus access to self-care workshops provided by Rape Crisis England and Wales. The Volunteer Coordinator checked in with volunteers regularly and provided additional phone and online support. Alongside this was additional training on Working with Trauma, , Adult Safeguarding, Cohesive Control and Honour Based Violence and a Carolyn Spring webinar training series.

Volunteers were kept updated and informed on all aspects of Covid-19.

TRC continued to engage, now online, with funders and commissioners in Trafford and Greater Manchester, as well as further afield. The pandemic brought additional requirements, regular updating and more frequent meetings and reporting.

We continued to have good strong working relationships with local, statutory, third sector and voluntary organisations to inform and to input into local and Greater Manchester strategy. We continued to work with GMCA whilst they looked to redesign their victim service delivery framework services and with the Greater Manchester Police RASSO Rape Partnership forum across Greater Manchester. TRC also remained a voice for survivors who did not want to proceed through the Criminal Justice System, and as such may only reach out to a specialist service like TRC.

We work in partnership with the Black Health Agency, Greater Manchester BAME Women’s network. and community groups such as the Pakistani Women’s Association, Women Asylum Seekers Together,

Safety for Sisters. We have also been working with several focus groups representing survivors in general and BAMER survivors particularly.

TRC partners locally with Trafford Domestic Abuse Services (TDAS) and attends the Trafford Domestic Abuse Forum and the Trafford Domestic Abuse Practitioners Network (DAPN) regularly and the Stop The Traffic Modern Slavery Forum.

We strengthened our social media presence and played an active part in campaigns and education around Violence Against Women. We created, publicised and distributed a consent slide deck aimed at younger women. We partnered with the MOJ to create an online video for survivors and have been interviewed by African Heritage Radio.

Financial review

The project has performed on budget during the period being reported.

Ministry of Justice funding was awarded for the period 2019-2022, and further extended in February 2021 until 2023. Trafford MBC funding was awarded for 2019-2022 also. Greater Manchester Combined Authority funding was awarded for six months, with a further six months then awarded.

At the start of the year we had in place 1 full-time Manager (35 hours), 1 Volunteer Coordinator, 1 Face-to-Face Services Coordinator (both 25 hours), 1 Business Support Officer (25 hours).

At year end 31 March 2021 Trafford Rape Crisis held £199,242 total Charity funds, £48,155 was for restricted projects going forward.

Reserves policy

TRC has a reserves policy which is used to report our reserves position. We will be raising unrestricted funds to improve our unrestricted reserves position.

The charity intends to maintain a free reserve in unrestricted funds, around £85,000, to:

Continue to offer a basic service in line with its charitable objects for a period of between 3 and 6 months.

Plans for the future

Due to the pandemic, plans for an Outreach worker were put on hold. Face-to-face projects were also put on hold, including plans for a drop-in for women on the counselling waiting list. Regulations and restrictions permitting, TRC will provide face to face counselling sessions in 2021 within COVID safe parameters.

Online services have enabled women to reach out to services, and it is clear that younger women in particular use the medium of live chat. TRC will be expanding its digital offering in 2021 with the development of a Webchat service.

Structure, governance and management

The trustees have the overall responsibility for compliance with the legal requirements of the limited company and the charity. They jointly hold strategic planning, management of funds, policy development and implementation and recruitment of volunteers, paid workers and trustees with the Management Group, which is made up of the trustees, the manager and 1 member of paid staff. There are a number of Sub Groups and a Volunteer Forum which report to the Management Group via the Manager.

The operational day to day running of the organisation is undertaken by the Manager and the paid workers, with volunteers working alongside.

Trustee induction and training

The trustees hear about Trafford Rape Crisis following their involvement with the organisation as volunteers and also through some external recruitment. This recruitment process is in line with the volunteer recruitment procedure for Trafford Rape Crisis, and Trustees will be required to attend part of the volunteer training to become familiar with the ethos, practice, governance and structure of the organisation.

All trustees are encouraged to access opportunities for external training.

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 19[th] July 2010 and registered as a charity on 29th July 2013.

The company was established under a memorandum of association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its articles of association.

Members of the charity guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 to the assets of the charity in the event of winding up. The total number of such guarantees at 31[st] March 2021 was 6 (2020:5). The trustees are members of the charity but this entitles them only to voting rights. The trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity.

All trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits from the charity. Any expenses reclaimed from the charity are set out in note 9 to the accounts. None claimed as trustees.

Related parties and relationships with other organisations

In so far as it is complementary to the charity's objects, the charity is guided by both local and national policy.

Risk management

Trafford Rape Crisis maintains a robust Risk Register.

Trafford Rape Crisis Limited

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021

1 Accounting policies

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

a Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), second edition - October 2019 (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

Trafford Rape Crisis Limited meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note.

b Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern. There are no key judgments which the trustees have made which have a significant effect on the accounts. However, judgments that have been made are described in the financial review of the Trustees' report.

The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

12

Trafford Rape Crisis Limited

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021 (continued)

c Income

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the charity that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.

Income received in advance of a provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

d Donated services and facilities

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised; refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution.

On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

e Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.

13

Trafford Rape Crisis Limited

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021 (continued)

f Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose.

Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.

g Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

h Allocation of support costs

Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the charity's programmes and activities. These costs have been allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities. The bases on which support costs have been allocated are set out in note 6.

i Operating leases

Operating leases are leases in which the title to the assets, and the risks and rewards of ownership, remain with the lessor. Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

j Tangible fixed assets

Individual fixed assets costing £500 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a straight line basis as follows:

Computers 33%
Office fixtures and equipment 25%

14

Trafford Rape Crisis Limited

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021 (continued)

k Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

l Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

m Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due

n Financial instruments

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

15

Trafford Rape Crisis Limited

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021 (continued)

o Pensions

Employees of the charity are entitled to join a defined contribution ‘money purchase’ scheme. The charity’s contribution is restricted to the contributions disclosed in note 8. There were £700 outstanding contributions at the year end (2020: £ 642).

2 Legal status of the charity

The charity is a company limited by guarantee registered in England and Wales and has no share capital. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity. The registered office address is disclosed on page 1.
