## **STOPSO TRUSTEE ANNUAL REPORT 2025** 

First, I would like to acknowledge the current Board of trustees: 

**Trudy Hannington    John Goss    Sue Maxwell    Jeff Compton      Emma Barwell   Robert Beilen Gavin Conn Tom Scott Antonia Morris** 

I would also like to thank our patrons: **Nina Vaaranen-Valkonen** and **Simon Bayley** QPM for their ongoing support and knowledge and for promoting us both in the UK and Europe as a leading child protection agency. 

This has been a great gang of committed individuals, and in combination, they are a great board of trustees. Thanks to you all. 

Besides the board, I would like to thank **Michael Morris** , our accountant. His number crunching is a wonderful thing, and he has kept us on track. 

Thanks to **Kelly Doyle** and **Shane Wheeler** for their admin support. 

I am honoured to continue serving as Chair of this dynamic and evolving charity. As this report shows, we are growing and developing, growth that brings its challenges, but these are welcome challenges that reflect our progress. Our work demands energy, adaptability, and foresight, and I am proud that we approach it with all three. I am especially grateful to the dedicated team of trustees and members whose commitment and insight help guide us forward. 

## **Achievements this year** 

**Contracts** - We have undertaken and pursued several contracts with: Bridge the Gap, Leicester police, and others. 

**Training** – We have delivered an exceptional and well attended schedule of training which has proved a good source of income and skills. We are also working on developing a bespoke training course for StopSO therapists’ work with under 18s, which is a remarkable and unique offering to be provided in 2026. 

**Conference** - We were delighted with the success of this event. The next conference will be held on 7[th] October 2025 and will be even bigger and better! 

**Alliances** - We have continued to benefit from our alliance with Stone King Solicitors. Matthew Graham and his team remain available to you all for free legal advice and guidance. Please check out the website for access. I thank Matthew for his multiple presentations to StopSO’s members.

## **Medium term vision** 

As you will know, the average age of those coming to us is becoming increasingly younger. This reflects a global trend in our field, where those presenting a risk of sexual harm to children are themselves, often children. In response, we have designed a bespoke training programme for StopSO members and other professionals working therapeutically with children. Our aim is to strengthen the quality of training available and make this opportunity accessible to many more therapists. This is a significant undertaking, but the groundwork is already underway, and we look forward to reporting next year on how many therapists have chosen to extend their practice to under-18s. We are grateful to be working alongside others already established in this field, including Dr Anna Hutchings, whose contribution continues to be outstanding. StopSO has sought funding for this venture, but was unable to secure this, so we have chosen to fund this ourselves from existing funds. 

The training subgroup continues to work on offering a good selection of courses. However, the above is an important direction for the charity. We have ambitions to broaden our training schedule further, and to revamp current training, including the Professional Certificate. 

We have enjoyed a ground swell of support and interest. This is in part due to the fantastic networking that trustees have undertaken; leading on this is the formidable Emma. We are working on harnessing this positive energy and working collaboratively with other agencies to get our message out there with the agencies and charities we cross over. I really do feel that working together is powerful and the only way forward. I could forgive myself for feeling defeated before I’ve even started to comprehend the numbers of children these represent. But that attitude will simply not do. We are part of a growing army of policy makers, charities and the public sector who are fighting back against the producers of such abusive material but also getting it known that, if it’s you indulging in this stuff, we can help you! Every man that comes to therapy and then, does not scroll on any of the sites he used to-that’s a win. Hundreds of Child Abuse Images no longer viewed, and those children are not revictimized. I’ll have that all day long! This is the thinking that is keeping us connected and increasingly connected to create a powerful force to support better, abuse free lives. 

We continue to plan for new initiatives, such as training at the therapy centers of learning to ensure that all therapists are at least aware of this subject matter which will affect some of their clients, either as perpetrators or victims/survivors. Also, we are looking to offer support to Social Services departments who deal with the immediate aftermath of ‘The Knock’, and who receive little if any training in this area of work, thereby having few tools to deal with the risk that may be perceived. 

**Safeguarding** - We have received positive feedback about our safeguarding policy. I thank Matthew Graham of Stone King solicitors for their continued support and guidance with this complex work. 

Page 2 of 3 



## **Long term vision** 

StopSO has a positive long-term vision, which we understand will be tempered by the ever-changing tide of this work. 

We expect the work with under 18’s will be profitable, but moreover, will become a vital part of the development of therapeutic services in the UK. 

We are also planning to work more collaboratively with other organizations in this field. I have always believed that if we work together, we work smarter. This includes We are Survivors, Bridging the Gap. 

The trustee board has grown, and we are increasingly multi-skilled. This brings challenges but moreover, a lot of strength, which I am hopeful will strengthen our work going forward, 

We are working on creating a fresh new website to support the level of traction we are currently receiving and bolster the current demand for access to, for example, training materials. 

## **In conclusion** 

StopSO is morphing our growth and developing into pillars of focus. To achieve this, we need the continued support and energy of trustees, and members. Some of the pillars are already in place e.g., training programs and policies around governance. Others will show themselves as needing more work. And we will do the work. 

I believe this is the road to organizational success and growth.

all areas pertaining to this work. Beside5 this. we look for all opportunities to open a discussion about the
importance of treating perpetrators therapeutically. a dialogue to ensure perpetrators are offered every
opportunity to seek help and guidance to desist from Criminal and hartnful behaviour. We also seek to 5UPPOrt

Public benefit
Therapy assists any individual to ideniif). and manage underlving issues. In the demographic that concerns us,
this means identifying the underlying causes of offending ihought andlor behaviours. We would lik'e to prevent
the first offence. but we Can certainly focus on preveniing subsequent offending and hamiful behaviour.
The public is horrified by sexual offendin& understandably. However, an approach as promoted by Stopso
which focuses on therapy and less on punishmenL is more likely to enable the individual to desist which
ultimately keeps the public safe.
Our work focuses on all sexual offending against children. Increasingly, this involves the online world. As a
child protection charity, we seek opportunities to discuss the implications of this with other agencies such as
police and children services who deal with survivors and family members.
The trustees confirn) that they have complied w'ith the requirements of sectton 17 of the Charities Act 201 I to
have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Coinmission for England and Wales.

Trustees, Report {continlled)
In conclusion
Stopso is morphing our growth and developing into pillars ol focus. To achieve thi5, we need the continued
support and energy of trustees. and meTnbers. Some of the pillar5 are already in place e.g., training programs and
policie5 around governance. Others will show themselve5 as needing more work. And we will do the work.
I believe this is the road to organizational success and growth.
Financial revieiv
The Charity s finances have continued to be carefully manaoed in the past year and a surplus of £1 0,546 was
achieved on unrestricted aciivities. The Charit)"'s unrestricted iTJcome is entirely self-generated. Fixed expenses
are low, so any reduction in future income streams can be offset by reductions IT] variable costs. All of the
charity's funds are used for its charitable purposes.
Policy on reserves
The Charity's policy is to hold a level of unrestricied reserves that provides cover for the next 12 months running
expenses. The trustees review future rnnning costs each month for this purpose.

Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material
uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to
continue as a going concern. The truslees make this assessment in respect of a period of one year from the date
of approval of the financial statements.
Ineome and endowments

expenditure heading that aggregates similar costs to that categorv. Where cost5 cannot be directly attributed to
particular headings they have been allocated on a basi5 consistent with the use of resources, with central staff
Costs allocated on the basis of time spent. and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset's use.

Objeclives, slralegies and activilies
We offer training to therapists to tak-e on referra15 for Stopso. We are now able to offer subsequent training in
all areas pertaining to this work. Beside5 this. we look for all opportunities to open a discussion about the
importance of treating perpetrators therapeutically. a dialogue to ensure perpetrators are offered every
opportunity to seek help and guidance to desist from Criminal and hartnful behaviour. We also seek to 5UPPOrt

Public benefit
Therapy assists any individual to ideniif). and manage underlving issues. In the demographic that concerns us,
this means identifying the underlying causes of offending ihought andlor behaviours. We would lik'e to prevent
the first offence. but we Can certainly focus on preveniing subsequent offending and hamiful behaviour.
The public is horrified by sexual offendin& understandably. However, an approach as promoted by Stopso
which focuses on therapy and less on punishmenL is more likely to enable the individual to desist which
ultimately keeps the public safe.
Our work focuses on all sexual offending against children. Increasingly, this involves the online world. As a
child protection charity, we seek opportunities to discuss the implications of this with other agencies such as
police and children services who deal with survivors and family members.
The trustees confirn) that they have complied w'ith the requirements of sectton 17 of the Charities Act 201 I to
have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Coinmission for England and Wales.
Achievements and performance
First, I would like to acknowledge the current Board of th￿tees.

I would also like to thank our patrons: Nina Vaaranen-valkonen and Simon Bayley QPM for their ongoing

This has been a great group of committed individuals. and in combination, they are a great board of trustees.
Thanks to you all.
Besides the board, I would like to thank Michael Morri5. our accountant. His number crunching is a wonderful
thing, and he has kept U5 on track.
Thanks to Kelly Doyle and Shane Wheeler for their admin support.
l am honoured to continue serving as Chair of thi5 dynamic and evolving charity. A5 this report show5, we are
growing and developing, growth that bring5 its challenge5. but these are welcome challenge5 that reflect our

three. l am especially grateful to ihe dedicated team of trustees and members whose commitment and insight

Medium term vision
A5 you will know, the average age of those coming to us is becoming increasingly younger. This reflects a
global trend in our field, where those presenting a risk olseNual harm to children are themselve5. often children.
In response, we have designed a bespoke training programme for Stopso member5 and other professionals
working therapeuticall )' with children. Our aitn 15 to Strengthen the quality of training available and make this
opportunity accessible to many more therapists. This is a significant undertaking. but the groundwork is already
underway, and we look forward to reporting next year on how many therapists have chosen to extend their
practice to under-18s. We are grateful to be working alongside others already established in this field, including
Dr Anna Hutchings. whose contribution continues io be outstanding. Stopso has sought funding for this
venture, but was unable to secure this, so we have chosen to fund this ourselves from existing funds.
The training subgroup continues to work on offering a good selection of courses. However, the above is an
important direction for the charity. We have ambitions to broaden our training schedule further. and to revamp
current trainin& including the Professional Certificate.
We have enjoyed a ground swell of support and inleresl. This is in part due to the fantastic networking that
trustees have undertaken- leading on this is the formidable Emma. We are working on harnessing this positive
energy and working collaboratively with other agencies to get our message out there ￿'1th the agencies and
charities we cross over. I really do feel that working together is poM-.erful and the only way forward. I could
forgive myself for feeling defeated before I've even started to comprehend the numbers of children these
represent. But that attitude will simply not do. We are part of a growing anny of policy Makers, charities and the
public sector who are fighting back against the producers of such abusive material but also getting it know'n that,
if it's you indulging in this stuff, we can help you! Every Tnan that come5 to therapy and then, does not scroll on
any of the sites he used to-that's a win. Hundred5 of Child Abuse Images no longer vieM.-ed, and those children
are not revictimized. I'll have that all day long! Thi5 15 the thinking that 15 keeping us connected and
increasingly connected to create a powertul force to support better. abuse free lives.
We continue to plan for new initiatives: such as training at the therapy centres of learning to ensure that all
therapists are at least aware of this subject matter which will affect some of their clients. either as perpetrators or
victirnslsurvivors. Also, we are looking to offer support to Social Services departments who deal ￿'1th the
immediate aftermath of "The Knock,, and who receive little if any training in this area of work, thereby having
few tools to deal with the risk that may be perceived.
Safeguarding- We have received p05ltive feedback about our safeguarding policy. I thank Matthew Graham of
Stone King solicitor5 for their continued 5UPPOrt and guidance with this complex work.
Long terni vision
Stopso ha5 a positive long-term vision, which we understand will be tempered by the ever-changing tide of this
work.
We expect the work with under 18's will be profitable, but moreover. will become a vilal part of the
development of therapeutic services in the UK.
We are also planning to work more collaboratively with other organizations in this field. I have always believed
that if we work together, we work smarter. This includes We are Survivors, Bridging the Gap.
The trustee board has grown, and we are increasingly multi-skilled. This brings challenges but moreover, a lot
of strength, which l am hopeful will strengthen our work going forward.
We are working on creating a fresh new website to support the level of traction we are currently receiving and
bolster the current demand for access to. for elample. training materials.

In conclusion
Stopso is morphing our growth and developing into pillars ol focus. To achieve thi5, we need the continued
support and energy of trustees. and meTnbers. Some of the pillar5 are already in place e.g., training programs and
policie5 around governance. Others will show themselve5 as needing more work. And we will do the work.
I believe this is the road to organizational success and growth.
Financial revieiv
The Charity s finances have continued to be carefully manaoed in the past year and a surplus of £1 0,546 was
achieved on unrestricted aciivities. The Charit)"'s unrestricted iTJcome is entirely self-generated. Fixed expenses
are low, so any reduction in future income streams can be offset by reductions IT] variable costs. All of the
charity's funds are used for its charitable purposes.
Policy on reserves
The Charity's policy is to hold a level of unrestricied reserves that provides cover for the next 12 months running
expenses. The trustees review future rnnning costs each month for this purpose.
