Trustees’ Annual Report

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) became a charitable incorporated organisation (CIO) in 2016, having operated as a ‘by and for’ volunteer support service since 2000. Evolving into a CIO has allowed us to meet our aims more effectively during a period of increasing male sexual violence survivor demand. We continue to see demand from male survivors for one-to-one video delivery, but also group work and social action support. The evidence of both academic and grey literature reporting shows that social awareness of sexual violence is increasing within all communities, and many more males are seeking support. Our software as a service (SaaS) model has evidenced it meets the expanding demand effectively both financially and clinically. International and UK research shows that therapy delivered via video call is no less effective than offline. The Ben’s Place SaaS video counselling service is seen as having been pioneering in a professional space which was resistant or dismissive of video counselling. Our vision for video delivery has allowed us to meet the needs of our clients robustly in a complex funding and political environment surrounding sexual violence victim support - especially for male survivors. We will continue to implement our SaaS strategy to empower our clients to expand their sense of hope that recovering themselves – finding their way home – is a very real and worthwhile journey.

We also continue to explore offline services projects, and our strategy renewal in late 2025 will look to include innovation in such offline spaces.

This annual review looks at our successes and learning during 2024 – 2025. Our digital service outputs increased and, following a successful bid to the National Lottery, that work is secure for another couple of years. Other funding successes allowed us to reinforce our public profile using radio, TV, digital billboards and public awareness conferences across West Yorkshire. Our advertising focus is centred around September 10[th] World Suicide Prevention Day and November 19[th] International Men’s Day each year.

Our ongoing awareness drives saw our self and professional referrals increase with a total of 156 referrals, 61% of which received up to 24 sessions of counselling during the period. Direct advertising is more likely to connect with clients who are closer to being ready to begin their therapeutic journey. Our website was a key route for survivors to engage with the organisation. During the period, our website had over 21,000 visitors, with 11,000 being new visitors.

The Male Survivors Services Standard Mark has helped reinforce our already existing culture. A culture built on an ethos of proactive evaluation, professional standards, and agile working to meet our aims and objectives, enhance our activities, and remain focused on our mission to improve our male survivor services by involving our clients in that process via our Client Advisory Panel (CAP).

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 abuse and are undertaken to further our charitable purposes for the public benefit.

Who used and benefited from our services:

We mainly provide support services to male survivors resident in West Yorkshire, via our Ben's Place counselling and support services SaaS hub. However, in partnership with other male survivor services and funded by the Home Office, we have been able to support a small number of men from outside West Yorkshire this year.

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 worst economic deprivation issues in the UK. It is widely accepted that 1 in 6 males is a victim of sexual violence. We welcome the fact that, increasingly, Government reporting now explicitly includes sexual crimes against males, rather than reporting a combined figure for sexual crimes against both males and females. We continue to support the complex and politically challenging call for a national strategy for male survivors of interpersonal violent crime– separate from the current strategy for female survivors. Our CEO sits on the West Yorkshire Mayors’ Domestic and Sexual Violence Board (DSVB) and we continue to advocate for a local funding plan to meet male sexual violence service needs and development, which is rooted in ‘by and for’ service delivery.

The population of West Yorkshire was estimated at 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.

Independent research continues to identify gaps in provision for male sexual violence survivors as more males come forward for support and evidences the postcode lottery they often find. Ben’s Place is one of only six male survivor-focused services in the UK, and we were ranked fourth on turnover during 2023 - 2024.

During 2024 -2025, we provided 1:1 advocacy support and advice to 156 individual male survivors, with 95 able to be offered free counselling. We project referrals will continue to increase during 20252026.

Our last independent review of psychological outcomes for clients found:

Our clients’ feedback on their experiences and outcomes:

“I have struggled to talk to anyone about the rape. Ben’s Place helped me talk about it, the only time in over 40 years. It really has helped me in so many ways.”

“Wasn’t overly keen on video conferencing. Would have preferred face-to-face, but it wasn’t a deal breaker.”

“The whole experience was something I will never forget. Chris was a brilliant guide on this journey. Never forget, Chris was kind, thoughtful and a brilliant guide.’

Year Ended 31[st] March 2025

Trustees’ Annual Report

On entry to counselling, most clients present with moderate to severe clinical depression, with all experiencing thoughts of suicide or self-harm in the week prior.

Overall client outcomes continue to evidence:

Our current strategy aims to reinforce our digital offerings with new online and offline services. We continue to develop our Kintsugi Projects - podcasting, awareness conferencing and workshops for survivors focused on positive social change activism. Our objective remains to be one of the most innovative and professional male sexual violence survivor support agencies in the UK. The charity feels positively positioned to move forward with that ambition during 2025 – 2026.

Partnership, cooperation, and collaboration continue to be seen by the Trustees, with services allied to our values and vision, as a cornerstone of our organisational culture. We believe there is an ethical need to support ‘by and for’ services and consultancy in the specialist sexual violence sector.

Financial Review:

We continue to proactively bid for funding opportunities as they emerge. 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 strategy maintains a clear focus on creating 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.

Principal Funding Sources:

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

We continue to see small but increasing private donations. The Board continues to be grateful to all funders, but especially to people making individual donations.

The charity continues to develop an assertive funding plan that targets a diverse range of funding sources, and the Board are optimistic that the hard work of the last few years in forging a professionally robust service model can be further consolidated and developed during 2025, when we will finalise our strategy for 2026 – 2029.

The Board and CEO, whilst realistic about the challenges ahead, believe there are positive opportunities to build new and better in an emerging sexual violence trauma-informed cultural landscape.

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 organisation’s requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. At the end of the financial year, the unrestricted funds, including designated reserves held by the charity, were £80,128. The charity is currently able to operate on its existing business plan and meet its ongoing costs for 6 months from its reserves if needed.

Plans for Future Periods:

The Board’s strategic aim is to expand Ben’s Place services creatively, including pioneering new services. The details of that vision will be published in early 2026.

Structure, Governance, and Management:

Constitution adopted 7th July 2016.

Recruitment and Appointment of Trustees:

The charity currently has a stable core board of three trustees.

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 add value. 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.

The trustees meet bi-monthly and normally serve three-year terms (this will be reviewed in 2026 to allow extensions where this is supportive to the charity).

During 2025–2026, the Board aims to recruit new trustees with relevant skills and experience to complement the Board’s current skill sets. The skills sought include primary care medicine and accountancy.

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 provided to all new trustees, including safeguarding within such a complex risk context.

Risk Management:

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

Going Concern

The financial statements are prepared on a going-concern basis. The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern.

Trustees’ Responsibilities in Relation to Financial Statements

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity’s activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing financial statements giving a true and fair view, the trustees should follow best practices:

The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the charity, which enables them to ascertain its financial position, and which enable them to ensure the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations and the provisions of the constitution. The trustees are responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud or other irregularities.

Notes to the Financial Statements

Incoming Resources

All incoming resources are recognised once the charity has entitlement to the resources, it is probable that the resources will be received, and the monetary value of incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability.

• All voluntary income from supporters is recognised as donations and are included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities.

• Grants, where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.

• Income resources from charitable trading activities such as the letting of the building are accounted for when invoices are drawn up (as the point of entitlement).

• Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified.

• Gifts in Kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount actually realised.

• Volunteer time, the value of voluntary support for the work of the charity is not included in the accounts but is described in the Trustees Annual Report.

• Investment Income is included in the accounts when receivable.
