CEO Reflections
The transition to the new working landscape has been a period of significant adjustment for NRC. Embracing
a hybrid model, which combines in-person and remote work, allows for a flexible approach that can cater to
the diverse preferences and the needs of clients, counsellors and members of the staff team. This adaptability
not only supports the well-being of all invotved but also ensures that our service delivery remains
uninterrupted and accessible, reflecting the evolving dynamics of the workplace and our clients, need5.
Our team of counselling volunteers continue to deliver trauma-informed therapy whilst our Independent
Sexual Violence Advisors IISVA's} continue to 5UPPOrt clients accessing the criminal justice system ICJS). Delays
in the QIS means that clients are with us for longer. Our aim for next year is to increase our public profile and
use this profile to challenge mechanisms within the CJS which prevent victims from reporting.
If the government is serious about its pledge to halve Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWGI in a decade,
it must look beyond the criminal justice system alone and take a whole-society approach that focuses on
preventing women and girls from becoming victims in the first place. This includes unpicking the attitudes and
inequality that drive this violence, through sustained education and public campaigns geared towards
preventing abuse.
NRC Reclaim the Night (RTN) march is NRC'S way to encourage partner
organisations and members of our community to come together and campaign for
safety on our streets. The RTN march is also a way in which we can work to reduce
the stigma around talking about sexual violence, so that more victims and survivors
feel able to ask for and seek support.
Our Associations
We are members of the national organisation Rape Crisis England and Wales IRCEWI and our work is guided
by RCEW National Service Standards, as well as our organisational membership of BACP. Our dedicated small
staff team, counselling volunteers and NRC'S board of trustees continue to work tirelessly to enable us to
deliver our trauma informed seniices, providing 'best value, for survivors of sexual violence and sexual abuse.
Return on Investment
NRC can demonstrate it5 own value to our local economy in many ways; we are able to evidence that for every
£1 we receive from within the county, we are able to bring in an additional £2.59 into the local economy. Our
work with clients supports them to remain in employment, supports them to remain in education and enables
them to access trauma informed support, when they have limited access to mental health intervention, when
they are not in crisis.
In the forthcoming financial year as government funding potentially reduces, NRC will need to look closer to
home for funding to support survivors throughout the county cope, recover and move on from the trauma
they have experienced. It is crucial that we explore alternative funding sources within the county. We will
need to engage with local businesses, explore fundraising events and establishing partnerships with private
donors. We also need to engage with our community and come together to make Northamptonshire a place
where everyone can be free from violence and abuse. We will work and collaborate with partners in the third
sector and public sector to achieve our aims.

Services & Carn
ai
ns
We remain the only free-at-the-point-of-access, trauma-informed, specialist sexual violence service in the
county, offering support to suivivors of sexual violence and sexual abuse, regardless of when an incident
occurred. We continue to focus on making our services relevant and accessible to all survivors of sexual
violence across Northamptonshire.
l. Counsellin
2023-2024 Stats:
6 new volunteer counsellors completed their training and joined us.
By the end of the year, we had 29 active Volunteer Coun5ellors.
Average 70-80 individuals on the waiting list.
Individuals wait, on average, 12 weeks between referral and starting counselling.
2. Volunteer Counsellors
NRC deliver their critical services through a small stsff team who are supported by a much larger team of
dedicated Volunteer Counsellors. Ourvolunteers enable us to reach outto more people and keep our services
free.
"I really value the work that NRC do, l enjoy the support they give to both their counsellors and the clients. I
enjoy that we ore oll working together to support people in their journey to healing" (Volunteer Coun5ellor)
3. Grou
Work and Peer Su
ort
In October 2023, we ran the first of 3 Art Therapy courses at our offices in Wan¥vick House. The course,
consisting of 8-weeks of creative activities alongside basic psychoeducation and regulation techniques, was
designed to teach coping skills and build emotional wellbeing and resilience. The sessions also provided
space for peer support.
The sessions were run by Jen Tasker from Go Art Therapy and proved incredibly popular with clients, both
before and alongside their counselling sessions. We plan to run more of the courses.
4.su
ortln
the education of a future Ps
cholo
This year we recrulted a Tralnee Psychologlst on a 6-month placement Vid
Nottingham University as a Client Support Worker (CSW). The CSW role was
introduced to stabilise and support clients who access the service, ensuring they're
ready to safely enter a counselling space.
We identified this as an important role within the trauma recovery process which
wasn't being met by our existing seniices. We were delighted to have a CSW on
board and have carried some of her work through into our counselling provisions. Due to the success of the
role and the impact it had on clients, we are hoping to recruit another CSW in the new academic year.
"[Maisie] alwoys gets me to see things in (J different light and has definitely helped me to challenge thoughts
and put more strategies in to help me on a day-ttrdoy basis"

5. Trainin
Our 'Understanding the Impact and Consequences of Sexual Violence, was provided across the year to
professionals in several settings. This included training to partners such as the Northamptonshire Police and
VOICE (Victim and Witness Support), counselling students and Improving Access to Psychological Therapies
IIAPT) staff delivering Talking Therapies.
6. Partnershi
Workin
Working with a range of local stakeholders on issues relating to sexual violence and
abuse is key to ensuring we reach those who either access our services or can share
our prevention messages. As a countywide agency we work with partners across
Northamptonshire, and in 2023124 delivered and engaged in the following:
Ongoing involvement in the Northampton Women's Forum.
Ongoing involvement in '16 Days Against Gender Based Violence, led by West
Northants Council.
Supported Sexual Violence Awareness Week (February) and No More Week
(March)
An information stands at WNC'S International Women's Day event
Planned information stalls at Northampton College and Rushden Youth Engagement events
7. Survivor Voices
Following a matched funding campaign with the Big Give in
October 2023, in which we raised £1780, we ran an advocacy and
peer support project called Sur4ivor Voices in January and
February 2024. Alongside local workshop facilitators Sarah Terry
and Nai Black, we ran two art and creative writing workshops,
followed by an incredibly powerful exhibition and performance at local venue, V&B's.
The project was designed to be both a peer support environment and an opportunity to
amplify the voices of survivor/victims and raise public awareness of the impact of
sexual violence. Feedback from attendee5 and facilitators show it was a success on both
fronts.
he session was wonderful. Moving. powerful and inspiring. Ifelt like I was 'held'"
8. Reclaim the Ni
ht
In 2024, we again organised the Northampton Reclaim the Night march. As
in previous years the Barry Road Co-op provided us with space to gather
and provided hot drinks and a great atmosphere. With performances from
local musicians and poets, the march was a powerful and inspiring event.
I4M rn MGHT
END
The march was led by a group of women drummers and followed two
banner/placard making workshops and two drumming workshops. This
ensured we got the message out there in many ways. The march was
extremely well received by the local community and as always incredibly well supported by local partner
organisations including VOICE and Northamptonshire Domestic Abuse Senlices {NDAS).

Financial Review
Financial reports are prepared by the Office Manager and reviewed independently by external accountant,
Lorraine Scullion, MAAT.

Principal sources of ongoing funding forthe year have remained consistent with earlier years, with
continued substantial support from the Ministry of Justice, Office of the Police, Fire & Crime Commissioner

Cost control remains strong with day-to-day resourcing optimised by a mix of full and part time employees
and voluntary counsellors. We continue to adapt to the changing employment landscape, offering a
combination of office based and remote working. One positive legacy of Covid-19 15 our ability to now

The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit
is not required for this year under section 144 (21 of the Charities Act 2011 and that an independent
examination is needed.

comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any
unusual items or disclosures of the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees
concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would
be required in an audit and consequently no opinion 1$ given as to whether the accounts P￿sent a
"true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examinerfs Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
l. Which give5 me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect, the requirements:
