## **Who we are:** 

The Daisy Programme is a registered charity supporting adults, children and young people who are living with, or have been affected by, domestic and sexual abuse across the Breckland area and wider Norfolk. Since 2015, we have delivered trauma‑informed services that empower survivors to recover, build resilience and create safer, healthier futures. 

## **Executive Summary** 

## **Our Mission** 

To empower people who have experienced abuse to recover, build resilience and live positive, healthy and productive lives. 

## **Our Purpose** 

To work collaboratively, especially with those who have lived experience, to raise awareness and understanding of domestic and sexual abuse, and to support survivors to look forward to the future rather than be controlled by the past. 

## **Our Objectives** 

Our charitable objectives are to relieve the needs of people in Norfolk who have experienced domestic abuse, supporting their emotional, physical and mental health. 

We achieve this by: 

- Supporting people to develop confidence and belief in their ability to create a safer future through tailored support planning, risk assessment, safety planning, IDVA support, casework and emotional support. 

- Enabling people to move forward from past trauma through therapeutic interventions, including counselling. 

- Helping people to value themselves by understanding abuse and recognising their progress and achievements.

_“I owe you so much. I am still here because of the time, effort, understanding and nonjudgmental support given to me. I am facing some of the hardest things in my life at the moment, and there are times where I have just wanted it all to stop, but with your support I can now see a future.” A Rowan Client_

DAISY PROGRAMME ANNUAL REPORT 2024-2025 

## **Activities, Achievements and Performance** 

## **Overview** 

2024–2025 has been a year of exceptional growth and development. We expanded our reach to support adults impacted by domestic and sexual abuse, alongside children and young people who have lived with domestic abuse. Our staff team grew from 13 to 22, and we welcomed four new Trustees, strengthening governance and leadership. 

Key developments included: - Expansion of our NIDAS provision to cover King’s Lynn & West Norfolk and North Norfolk. - Growth in therapeutic and trauma recovery services, significantly reducing waiting times for counselling. - Continued delivery and expansion of our Fantastic Families service for children and young people. - Increased community outreach, training and partnership working across Breckland and Norfolk. 

Over the past year, we have witnessed a marked shift in the complexity and urgency of the needs presented by the individuals and families we support. The landscape of social care and community support has evolved significantly, with increasing pressures on both the people we serve, and the systems designed to assist them. 

One of the most notable trends has been the escalation in mental health challenges. We have seen a significant rise in referrals from organisations working with individuals experiencing mental illness, reflecting a broader societal increase in psychological distress. Many of these referrals involve people facing acute anxiety, depression, and trauma-related conditions, often exacerbated by prolonged uncertainty and systemic delays. 

In parallel, there has been a sharp increase in the number of children with neurodiverse needs, including those diagnosed with autism spectrum conditions, ADHD, and other developmental differences. A growing proportion of these children are also under the protection of children’s services, highlighting the vulnerability and complexity of their circumstances. These cases often require multi-agency collaboration and specialist interventions, which are increasingly difficult to coordinate due to resource constraints. 

Poverty and financial insecurity have deepened across the communities we serve. More families are experiencing food poverty, with a noticeable rise in reliance on food banks and emergency support services. The cost-of-living crisis continues to impact household stability, leading to increased stress, housing insecurity, and reduced access to essential services. 

The family justice system has also faced significant challenges. Long delays in cases coming to court or reaching resolution have placed immense emotional strain on families, particularly those involved in child protection and custody proceedings. These delays contribute to heightened anxiety, prolonged uncertainty, and in some cases, deterioration in mental health and family relationships. 

4 



DAISY PROGRAMME ANNUAL REPORT 2024-2025 

Compounding these issues, we have experienced the closure or temporary suspension of referral pathways from several partner agencies. This has placed additional pressure on our services, as we have had to absorb more complex cases without the usual support structures in place. The disruption in referral networks has also led to gaps in care and delayed interventions for those in urgent need. 

In summary, the past year has underscored the growing complexity and interrelated nature of the challenges faced by the people we support. Mental health concerns, neurodiversity, poverty, systemic delays, and service disruptions have converged to create a landscape of need that is more acute and multifaceted than ever before. As we move forward, it is essential that we continue to adapt our approaches, advocate for systemic improvements, and work collaboratively to ensure that no one is left behind.

DAISY PROGRAMME ANNUAL REPORT 2024-2025 

## **Our Reach and Impact** 

During the year we: - Supported **2,107 people** aged 5–98. - Received **139 self** ‑ **referrals** , reflecting increased trust and accessibility. - Delivered **1,200 counselling hours** . - Supported **83 people** through programmes and structured support groups. - Engaged **850 people** through Daisy Ambassadors and community activities. 

## **Key Highlights** 

## **No Lengthy Waiting Lists** 

We continue to offer timely support, with all assessments and support plans completed within two weeks of referral. Our small but dedicated team ensures clients receive regular emotional support, remain safe, and are empowered to rebuild their lives. We are currently working with 380 families across all our services. 

## **Peer Support & Programmes** 

Our two peer support groups remain vibrant hubs for creative and well-being activities, engaging over 80 individuals. We also delivered: 

- 4 Power to Change courses 

- 3 Fantastic Families programmes 

- 4 Domestic Abuse Recovery Toolkit programmes 

- 2 Sexual Abuse Recovery Toolkit programmes 

## **Family Engagement** 

We worked with 498 families, offering parenting programmes and inclusive family activities such as drumming workshops, picnics, and seasonal events. 

## **Therapeutic support** 

We provided specialist counselling to 116 survivors delivering more than 1200 counselling sessions. 

## **Community Outreach** 

Through outreach sessions and local events, we engaged face-to-face with nearly 850 people, raising awareness and connecting with communities across our service areas. 

## **Specialist Collaboration** 

We are working with NSFT psychologists to enhance support pathways for survivors of sexual abuse in Breckland who are experiencing severe mental health challenges. Feedback shows our services are making a measurable difference in emotional well-being and psychological health. 

## **New Services** 

In partnership with the Norfolk Integrated Care Board, we introduced services to support women in accessing preventative health measures such as breast and cervical cancer screening. This work has helped the ICB better understand the barriers women face in maintaining their health and builds on our previous collaboration with trainee midwives to promote trauma-informed, abuse-aware care across Norfolk.

DAISY PROGRAMME ANNUAL REPORT 2024-2025 

## **Children & Young People** 

Referrals for support remain high, and early intervention continues to be a priority to reduce long-term impact. Our work has significantly strengthened family cohesion and understanding, helping to reduce challenging behaviours and support children and young people (CYP) in achieving their educational milestones. Feedback from schools and Children's Services highlights a notable decline in the need for specialist interventions and a reduced reliance on alternative forms of support. 

Many of the CYP we work with have also made considerable progress in their wellbeing— often ceasing self-harming or high-risk behaviours. This has contributed to a reduction in both medical and mental health interventions. 

A number of children who initially faced serious concerns about transitioning to high school have gone on to manage the shift successfully, thanks to the support they received. We've also invested in training our team to work effectively with neurodiverse conditions, especially where these intersect with trauma responses. This has helped reduce the frequency and intensity of behaviours often associated with neurodiversity. 

Our parenting programmes play a key role in reinforcing this progress by embedding a whole-family approach. These efforts have led to better outcomes not just for the child receiving support, but also for their parents and younger siblings, creating a more stable and nurturing home environment. 

## **Adult Survivor Support** 

Our work with adults remains central to our mission. Survivors of domestic and sexual abuse have accessed a range of services from crisis intervention and therapeutic support to long-term recovery planning. Through compassionate, non-judgmental care, we continue to help adults reclaim control, confidence, and hope. 

## **Progress Against Our Aims** 

- Expanded and embedded NIDAS coverage to include King’s Lynn & West Norfolk and North Norfolk, providing seamless, holistic support across all levels of risk. 

- Launched a new Trauma Recovery Support Service, supported by National Lottery Community Funding. 

- Introduced new courses and group programmes to improve flexibility and accessibility. 

- Strengthened Fantastic Families through increased staffing and specialist accredited training. 

- Expanded community outreach with monthly drop‑ins across Breckland.

## **Norfolk Integrated Domestic Abuse Service (NIDAS)** 


NIDAS is a countywide partnership delivered with Leeway Domestic Abuse Service and Safe Partnership, supporting individuals assessed at high or medium risk of harm. 

In January 2024, our NIDAS team expanded to 12 posts, including Family IDVAs and Community 

Development and Recovery Facilitators. During the year, we have embedded this service within Daisy Programme and filled all the vacant roles to ensure a full service is delivered across King’s Lynn & West Norfolk and North Norfolk. 

## **Referrals received:** 1,653 

**Outcomes reported:** - 83% felt safer - 70% reported improved health and wellbeing - 65% ‑ experienced increased confidence and self esteem - 61% improved engagement with their local community 

‑ Client feedback highlights the life changing impact of consistent, compassionate IDVA support. 

_“I wish to express my sincere appreciation to the NIDAS team. I was in desperate need of guidance support and a voice to talk matters through. You through and through ensured my wellbeing was priority, I really dread to think where I'd be if it were not for the support. Today I have a fresh home and can look forward to a new life as I begin to build on the confidence given and the knowledge that the support got me to where I am.”_ 

_“My Idva, was absolutely out of this world, she helped me so much and I have gained a lot more confidence in how to deal with situations. She is the best. I’m not the easiest person to deal with as I shut down n put my head in the sand, but she has helped me overcome these things, I can’t thank her enough_ 😊 _, all you guys absolutely rock and do amazing, so thank you.”_

DAISY PROGRAMME ANNUAL REPORT 2024-2025 

_“If it wasn't for the extremely helpful advice and support, I got, I wouldn't be alive today and that isn't an over statement or a joke. At the beginning of this traumatic situation it was really the end of decades of abuse for me and you gave me the courage to face the process of what help I actually needed and where to get it, as well as guiding me through the processing of the actual events that occurred and coming to terms with what had actually happened to me. But most of all, you believed me and reassured me that my behaviours when they occurred were because I was a victim of abuse and not as an abuser as I had been accused. You made me feel safe, which is something I hadn't realised for a long time. My Idva did this in such a gentle but empowering way, how totally miraculous, above and beyond professional. I cannot thank your service enough for your time and care, it really is appreciated. I am moving on to a new home soon, my case comes up shortly and it's going to be a guilty plea, the OIC is applying for a Court Order also to keep me covered after sentencing. My life has been transformed.”_ 

## **The Rowan Project – Sexual Abuse Recovery** 

The Rowan Project forms part of our Trauma Recovery Service, providing specialist support to survivors of sexual abuse. 

- **Referrals:** 198 

- **Self** ‑ **referrals:** 43% 

Following client feedback, referral processes were simplified to reduce re‑traumatisation. Support includes one‑to‑one casework, counselling, peer support, and creative and mindful activities. 


During the year, we received additional Ministry of Justice funding for this vital work through our partnership with Sue Lambert Trust, Brave Futures and One to One Project. This has enabled us to provide another day of counselling and increase our Client Caseworker resources to improve pre and post counselling support. 

_“My counsellor was amazing, she has helped me feel confident to speak about things.  I now need help to deal with everything that has happened and to pack it away so hopefully I can move on. I wish there was a way to give back to the Rowan Project and would love to know about the groups etc you do. I am not ready yet but would like to in the future.  You have made a huge difference to me and have been so supportive and a light in a very dark place.  I owe you so much.”_

DAISY PROGRAMME ANNUAL REPORT 2024-2025 

## **Daisy Domestic Abuse Recovery** 

A key part of our trauma recovery service, we ‑ supported 198 standard risk survivors through ‑ longer term recovery services. Clients are supported by dedicated trauma‑trained caseworkers, ensuring continuity, trust and holistic support planning. 

- **Support plans completed:** 192 

- **Accredited programmes delivered:** 

- **Clients accessing programmes:** 65 

Many clients also accessed counselling alongside psycho‑educational courses, supporting sustained recovery. With funding from the National Lottery Community Fund, we increased the number of counselling slots by 60% to ensure that waiting lists were kept to no more than a minimal period, so that no client needed to wait many months for counselling. 


During the year, we also introduced some shorter, less intensive programmes for those clients who found it difficult to commit to our longer courses or found the more in-depth investment difficult. Many clients found these were an important gateway to their longer-term recovery. 

_“I found my counselling sessions really helpful and completely changed my mind set from when I started to when I finished. Daisy Programme was way more than I could’ve expected, always understanding and compassionate and the wealth of knowledge helped me rationalise a lot of the doubt I had in my head. I will be forever grateful to the Daisy Programme for helping me through one of the toughest years.”_ 

Every client receives a co-created personal support plan and a named personal client caseworker to work with them as part of their recovery journey. 

_“I don't know where I would have been without your support. A different person walked out of the Daisy Programme than walked in. You have supported me and been my rock these past months. Thank God you were there. Forever grateful x”_

## **Peer Support and Wellbeing Activities** 

Peer support remains central to our work, reducing isolation and fostering connection. Alongside core support groups, we delivered: - Mind and body programmes - Yoga and mindful movement - Drumming workshops - Creative writing and art activities - Mindful walking and crafts 

‑ These activities were largely volunteer led by people with lived experience of abuse who are positive role models that demonstrate change is possible. We remain deeply grateful for their commitment and skill.

## **Fantastic Families – Children and Young People** 

_“I would like to say xxx was one of the best humans I have met. She truly has given me the strength I didn’t know I had to overcome things I never thought I would. She showed me that there are people out there that will believe you and who are willing to support and help you as much as possible! Thank you for giving me the support and allowing me to take the next step in my life.”_ 

Our Fantastic Families service supported **98 children and young people** , delivering **594 interventions,** facilitating **three parenting courses** and provided **six family drumming sessions** . Our work has led to better family cohesion and understanding, reducing challenging behaviours and enabling CYP to achieve their educational milestones. Feedback from schools and Children’s Services is that this has resulted in a reduction in the need for specialist support and less reliance on alternative interventions. Additionally, many of the CYP who we support cease self-harming and dangerous behaviours resulting in a decrease in medical and mental health interventions. 

The most significant change for the children and young people we support is recognising that their behaviour is rooted in trauma rather than “acting out.” Understanding the impact of domestic abuse helps them develop healthier coping strategies, including emotional regulation, assertive communication, positive self-belief, and calming techniques. Weekly one-to-one support with a trusted adult further reinforces their sense of safety and worth, helping them understand that they are not to blame for adult behaviour. 



As a result, children show improved emotional expression, greater confidence in education, and stronger relationships with family and peers. Those maintaining contact with an abusive parent are better equipped to process these interactions and build resilience. Our evaluations reflect this progress: 97% feel more heard and understood, 96% feel better able to manage difficult emotions, 90% recognise the link between their experiences and behaviour, and 88% report improved feelings about their behaviour. Parents report increased optimism, happier children, and a better understanding of the emotional roots of behaviour. 

13 



DAISY PROGRAMME ANNUAL REPORT 2024-2025 

Our highly skilled, trauma-informed team places the voice of the child at the centre of all support. Children actively shape their own plans, working at their own pace on what matters most to them. This personalised, holistic approach builds lasting trust and impact, ensuring children are supported as individuals and never defined by their trauma. 


We firmly believe that with the right support, every child has the potential to move forward and thrive. The earlier we intervene, the more likely they are to achieve lasting, life-changing progress. 

_“I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all your hard work with my daughter. She was emotional and was lost and a very angry little girl, who didn't understand what was going on in her head. Without your help I don't know where she would be. She has become a kind caring and sympathetic little girl who is better at handling situations and is always helping me around the house. I'm so proud of how much progress she has made and a massive thanks to Daisy Programme.”_

## **Daisy in the Community** 


Our community outreach expanded significantly, including: ‑ 45 regular monthly drop in sessions across Breckland, supported advice and information for 120 local residents, more than 20 awareness and training sessions reaching over 200 people, attendance at 33 community events and 31 partnership meetings. 


Over the year, we reached nearly 850 people. 

These initiatives provide accessible steps into support and strengthen local responses to abuse. 



_“Daisy Programme was brilliant and it’s so reassuring to know there is someone at the end of a phone who ‘just gets it’, without judgement. The service is professional but personable too and has encouraged me to make decisions, sign posted me to other agencies and advised me giving with personal insight. Thank you for all your support, an invaluable service that is much needed in the midst of the crisis fog.”_

## **Recruitment and appointment of Trustees** 

The trustees are recruited through advertising on the Daisy Programme website and a variety of other websites and social media platforms. Prospective trustees are interviewed by at least two members of the Trustee Board and then invited to attend a trustee meeting to introduce themselves and their reasons for wanting to be a trustee to the current board members. A vote of the existing trustees is then taken to confirm appointment. 

Trustees follow a comprehensive induction process, lasting up to three months following appointment. 

During the year several of our longstanding trustees left for personal reasons. We now have a new, committed and energetic board in place with a range of skills and experience to ensure Daisy Programme continues its vital work. We will seek further trustees to meet additional identified skills gaps. 

## **Statement of the Charity's Policy on Reserves** 

The Charity’s Financial Regulations include a policy on maintaining reserves at a suitable level to meet any financial commitments on dissolution of the CIO. The trustees confirm that this objective was met throughout the year. The trustees have undertaken a review of the 

18 



DAISY PROGRAMME ANNUAL REPORT 2024-2025 

current financial situation of the charity and calculate those reserves of a minimum of £108,000 should be held going forward. This amount is based on three months of core work expenditure of £66,000, plus £12,000 for any contractual winding up costs and £30,000 for any unexpected expenditure costs or investment into service opportunities. This figure is reviewed on an annual basis and represents a 32% increase from the previous year. Our unrestricted funds of £127,505 met that target. 

## **Details of Any Funds Materially in Deficit** 

The trustees declare that the charity had no funds which were materially in deficit at the date of the statement of assets and liabilities. 

## **State of the Charity’s Finances** 

Our income has increased by 43% from the income received in the previous financial year. The major changes have been a full year of funding for our extended NIDAS contract to cover King’s Lynn and West Norfolk and North Norfolk. 

The additional funding secured has given us a strong financial base for this year and next year. However, most of our current funding will end in 2026 and we face a cliff edge at that time. The trustees have identified this as a priority for the coming year to address the longer-term governance, financial and promotional issues that we face. Most of our expenditure is on staff salaries and we are fortunate that our overhead costs with regards to premises are relatively low. 

The accounts are showing a total carry forward figure of £253,917. Details of how this is made up are given below in the notes to the financial statements. Expenditure in this year increased by 64%. This was largely due to the full year of staffing costs for NIDAS staff. 

Overall, the trustees consider that Daisy Programme is a viable financial organisation and believe that the charity finances are in a healthy state going forward and that the charity will be able to meet all its ongoing financial commitments. Whilst it is not anticipated that there are likely to be significant changes to our income streams in the coming year, we are mindful that many of these are due to end of 2026-2027. Additionally, we have been advised that our sexual abuse service funding from Office of Police and Crime Commissioner for Norfolk for 2025-2026 will be reduced by 50%.  Government grants represent 12% of our total funding which is a continued reduction from the previous year due to an increase in funding from partnerships with Leeway and Sue Lambert Trust. 

## **Unrestricted Funds** 

We received an additional £10,000 of unrestricted income this year, mainly due to the increase in our second year of funding from Trusthouse Charitable Foundation. Our unrestricted fund carry forward has increased by 38% in the year, to £127,505, which is above the amount set by the trustees of £108,000. We hope to increase this amount through some planned fundraising activities in the coming year.

DAISY PROGRAMME INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31[ST] MARCH 2025 

## **Independent Examiner** 

## **Independent Examiner’s Report to the Members of the Daisy Programme** 

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31[st] March 2025, which are set out on pages 22 to 30. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts.  The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the2011 Act; and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner’s report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission.  An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records.  It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in 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 is given as to whether the accounts present a “true and fair view” and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011Act; and 

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or 

- (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

DAISY PROGRAMME FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31[st] MARCH 2025 

## **Notes to the financial statements** 

- **1 Accounting policies** 

   - In preparing the accounts the following accounting policies have been complied with: 

   - a) The charity is a public benefit entity and therefore 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) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP FRS 102) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

   - b) Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note, this is a change from the previous year and therefore the comparative figures have been restated. 

   - c) Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. 

   - d) Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal. 

   - e) There are no material uncertainties existing to suggest that the use of the going concern basis is inappropriate. 

   - f) All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to the income, and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.  The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income: 

i)   donations and legacies are received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is included in full in the statement of financial activities when receivable.  Grants, where entitlement is conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant. 

      - ii) Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified.  The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included in these accounts. 

      - iii) Income from investments is included when receivable. 

      - iv) Income from charitable activities, where related to performance and specific deliverables, are accounted for when the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance. 

   - g) Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred.  Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates: 

      - i) Costs of raising funds comprise costs associated with attracting voluntary income, including costs of trading for fundraising purposes and the use of a fundraising consultant. 

      - ii) Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries.  It includes costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.  It also includes those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the costs linked to the strategic management of the charity. 

      - iii) All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the statement of financial activities on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource.  Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated directly, others are apportioned on an appropriate basis as set out in the notes. 

- **2 Taxation** 

   - The charity is exempt from taxation on its income and gains where they are applied for charitable purposes. Irrecoverable VAT is included in the cost of the goods or services on which it was charged.
