## **Our Aims and Objectives** 

Purposes and Aims 

Our charity’s purposes as set out in the objects contained in the company’s memorandum of association are the: 

Relief of the physical and mental distress of persons in need by reason of suffering from child sexual abuse/adult rape and by the provision of counselling and support for such persons. 

## **Ensuring our work delivers our aims:** 

Survivors West Yorkshire (SWY) become a charitable incorporated organisation (CIO) in 2016. This allowed us to meet the aims of the charity more effectively during a period of increasing survivor demand. We continue to see that increasing demand from male survivors of sexual violence as our support offer outcomes and good practice becomes better know. This has been driven by the TV, radio, bus, and billboard campaigns which we ran during the year.  We projected more male survivors will seek support as more NHS workers refer. We know from research that the use of video for therapeutic purposes is as effective as offline therapy. Our clients report good therapeutic alliance and counselling outcome satisfaction with 93% of clients evidencing better coping and great awareness and skills at using positive strategies that support living well. Video counselling can be a more acceptable way to engage in a therapeutic process for those with higher levels of self-stigma – a known challenge for male survivors. 

As we look back and the pandemic recedes further into folk memory for most of us. We can more clearly reflect that our Ben’s Place teletherapy service pioneered a robust and we’re told copied video delivery model. This model allowed us to meet the needs of our clients robustly but also to continue evidence to funders the potential of software as a service (SaaS) delivery to meet the needs of male survivors subject to the limitations of their digital access. 

This annual review looks at our successes and learning during the period 2022–2023. 

This saw self-referrals increase significantly and 43 male survivors were allocated therapy packages during the year which represented a 35% increase. In total we saw 115 referrals. Direct advertising is more likely to bring in clients who are closer to feeling able to begin their therapeutic process. 

SWY’s website was a key route for survivors to engage with the organisation. During 2022 - 2023, SWY’s website had just over 6500 visitors, with 96% of those being new. 

We will continue to review our work to ensure we proactively meet our aims and objectives, enhance our activities, and remain focused on our mission to improve our male survivor services and its individual client outcomes. 

We have referred to the Charity Commission's general guidance on the public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the trustees have considered how planned activities will fulfil the aims and objectives they have set.

## **Trustees Annual Report** 

## **How our activities deliver public benefit:** 

Our main activities and who we help are described below. All our charitable activities focus on the support of male victim-survivors of sexual violence and are undertaken to further our charitable purposes for the public benefit. 

## **Who used and benefited from our services:** 

We mostly provide support services to male survivor’s resident in West Yorkshire. West Yorkshire is a large area (over 2,000 km²) that is geographically diverse, ranging from very rural areas to densely populated cities. It has some of the worse economic deprivation issues in the UK. It is widely accepted that 1 in 6 males are victims of sexual violence by the time they are 18 years old, and adult (post 18) males’ reports of sexual victimisation are increasingly seen in official statistics. We continue to welcome that Government reporting now explicitly includes sexual crimes against males, rather than reporting a combined gender figure for sexual crimes. We continue to support and lobby for a shift to both local – and national strategies for male survivors of interpersonal violent crimes separate from the current strategy for female survivors, which serves neither group well in dealing with the – complex issues they face. During 2023 2024 we will lobby the Mayor of West Yorkshire to create a robustly evidenced strategy for male survivors.  Regardless of the slow and complex progress of a forging a central Government strategy for male survivors. 

The population of West Yorkshire was estimated at around 2,500,000 in 2019. Assuming a 50/50 split of male/female residents, that means up to 200,000 males in West Yorkshire have potentially been victims of sexual violence during their lifespan. There is increasing independent research that identifies gaps in provision for sexual violence survivors with male needs being a critical issue as more males come forward for support. 

This financial year has seen rapidly increasing professional and self-referrals. SWY provided 1:1 support to 43 counselling clients and advocacy and self-help advice to 115 individual male survivors. This major increase we believe was driven by increased community awareness supported by our ground-breaking multi-channel advertising campaign strategy. We are especially grateful to the National Lottery’s Reaching Communities Fund for supporting us to explore high profile advertising during the first year of its core funding for Bens Place. 

We predict that referrals will increase further during 2023 – 2024.  We aim to seek more radio and other media advertising funding to build on the public awareness generated during this financial year. 

We also completed our second independent review of psychological outcomes for clients. 

The review found: 

- 47% of clients evidencing better coping skills and strategies 

- • 89% of clients evidencing increased confidence and/or resilience 

- 78% of clients evidencing increased ability to fulfil their potential 

- 81% of clients evidencing improved health

## **Trustees Annual Report** 

Clients and counsellors commented on their experiences and outcomes: 

“S reports having feeling of not wanting to be here on several days but was maintaining his coping strategies regarding it. Reviewed his feeling around life in general and routines he had control in changing such as sleep hygiene and evaluating areas of interest that he could find pleasure.” 

- “K looked at grounding exercises and self regulation in response to stress.” 

“C reflecting on positive changes to diet and exercise – responding to medical and physical conditions.” 

“H talked about creating lists, prioritising, being realistic about how much he can do. Doesn’t have to be everything now. To learn to slow down thought processes and be realistic and logical. Continuing with his healthy diet, gym, sport activities.”

Overall client outcomes evidenced: 

- 72% of clients saw an overall reduction in symptoms of depression. 

- 58% of clients saw an overall reduction in symptoms of post-traumatic stress 

SWY delivered a total of 1032 x 50-minute sessions of online counselling during the year 

The following case studies offer a glimpse into the outcomes for clients beyond numbers: 

“B feels that his mood has returned to normal and appreciated the alternative perspective offered in counselling that transitioning to his new job and hours could have taken its toll and that a lull in mood does not have to indicate that depression is around the corner.” 

“Exercise has become a regular part of T’s self-care routine, and he is now being mindful not to take his work ‘home with him’ to avoid burnout.” 

“S shared that he finds yoga very useful.” 

“J shared that although he felt anxious, he was able to use his grounding techniques to reduce his anxiety. He shared that he has been able to start working out and eating a bit more and his nightmares have reduced.”

## **Trustees Annual Report** 

Our ongoing strategy aims to reinforce our digital offerings with new online and offline projects, The objective being to become one of the leading, innovative, and professional male sexual violence survivor support agencies in the UK. Therefore, the charity feels positively positioned to move forward during 2023–2024 - even within an environment that continues to be challenging financially and culturally. 

National Service Standards for male sexual violence services. We are due to begin the reaccreditation process during the summer of 2023.  We are proactive in maintaining an operational culture which embraces professional service quality. 

Partnership, cooperation, and collaboration with services allied to our values and vision is a cornerstone of our strategic ethos to meet male survivor needs smartly. We hope to see such opportunities expand during 2023 – 2024. 

## **Financial Review:** 

The year saw new funding opportunities generate and we continue to proactively bid for grants which allow our service to meet the strategic goals we have set. We are optimistic that 2023 – 2024 will see successful bids from a diverse range of funders. 

There are many risks that small charities face constantly. Our financial situation is reviewed at every Board meeting and all risks are assessed and recorded, with actions noted. 

The Board’s strategic aim has and reminds to create a robust, professional, and sustainable organisation. This strategy is informed by prudent financial and agile management principles. The charity’s growth plans for the foreseeable future are rooted in this careful planning and deployment of resources - while being open to innovative and pioneering approaches that add value for our clients and fulfil our wider mission of cultural change. 

The challenges in growing our service will be demanding. However, there are opportunities to build new and better in an emerging trauma-informed cultural landscape. We believe that developing offline offerings will complement our online service for males smartly as the emerging paradigm shift to a trauma informed system and society gains pace. 

## **Principal Funding Sources:** 

The year saw us receive funding from a range of sources. The Board would like to thank all the following organisations: 

- The National Lottery Community Fund 

- Peoples Post Code Lottery 

- 

   - Assura Foundation via Cheshire Community Foundation 

- West Yorkshire Mayors Safer Community Fund

## **Survivors West Yorkshire** 

## **Year Ended 31st March 2022** 

## **Trustees Annual Report** 

We plan to explore increasing private donations including regular monthly payments during 2023 - 2024. The Board is grateful to all funders but feels especially empowered in its work by individual donations. The Board and staff would like to especially thank the individuals who have financially supported us this year. 

The charity continues to develop an assertive funding plan that targets a diverse range of funding sources, and the Board are optimistic the hard work of the last few years in forging a professionally robust service model for survivors can be further consolidated and developed beyond its initial digital focus. 

## **Investment Policy:** 

Going forward, the charity continues to develop a strategy for ethically investing any surpluses it secures. 

## **Reserves Policy:** 

The Board has examined the organization’s requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organization. The charity is currently able to operate on its existing business plan and meet its ongoing costs for 6 months. 

– During 2023 2024 the charity will take forward a reserves policy action plan in line with good practice. The aim will be to use any operating surpluses over the next three years to create a reserve fund that matches current operational costs for a minimum period of six months. 

## **Plans for Future Periods:** 

The Boards strategic aim is to expand its Ben’s Place service creatively, including pioneering new services to wrap around the core counselling offer. However, the year saw our ISVA project close due to late payments from the funder which created cashflow risk to our other services. We will look for advocacy funding from new sources during 2023 – 2024. 

We will continue to work with the University of Liverpool's Department of Clinical Psychology to increase knowledge of PTG and explore how the research can be used in traumainformed interventions - training for example. 

We see victim-blaming challenging and co-production with other survivors and agencies as a high priority area. This work will add value to the core work of the charity and the communities it serves.

## **Survivors West Yorkshire** 

## **Year Ended 31st March 2022** 

## **Trustees Annual Report** 

## **Recruitment and Appointment of Management Committee:** 

The charity currently has a stable core board of 3. The trustees focus on governance and strategy. They delegate the day-to-day management of the charity’s development to the founder and CEO, with individual trustee input occurring where skills and experience permit. The trustees meet bi-monthly and currently serve for 3 -year terms with a maximum term of – office of six years.  During 2023 2024 the Board will review allowing Trustees to serve for longer than 6 years. 

The Board offers a mix of project management, legal, financial and governance skills and members have in-depth knowledge of sexual violence and mental health service delivery. 

During 2023–2024 the Board aims to source more trustees with relevant skills and experience to complement the Board’s current skill sets. The skills sought include Autism and NHS commissioning, for example. 

Currently, all board members have access to the Charity Commission’s guide _The Essential Trustee_ as the foundation for understanding their role and obligations under charity law. Specialist sexual violence training is offered to all new trustees and going forward the Board will consider making this mandatory for trustees where there is no evidence of such training or specialist knowledge.  The Board annually formally reviews the organisations strategy and reinforces safeguarding awareness and professional application. 

## **Risk Management:** 

The Board has assessed the current risks to the charity and operates an up-to-date risk register.
