INTERMEDIARIES FOR JUSTICE
Report of the Trustees FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 July 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The CIO object is the relief of need of vulnerable people (including: witnesses; complainants; and defendants) and the promotion of the sound administration of the Law by facilitating communication and the provision of evidence in the Justice System through promoting the work of intermediaries registered either with the Ministry of Justice (England and Wales), The Northern Ireland Department of Justice or Court Approved Intermediaries who have attended a course of specialised training from acknowledged trainers in the field and who are able to satisfy the Court of their qualifications and suitability. "Vulnerable" meaning children under 18 (eligible for Intermediary assistance by virtue of their age) and adults whose age, disability, physical or mental disorder, mental health or specific learning difficulties affect their understanding or ability to communicate in words.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities.

Report of the Trustees FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES
This year marks the tenth anniversary of Intermediaries for Justice (IfJ), and we are pleased to report that the charity continues to thrive. We extend our sincere thanks to all trustees and members-past and present-whose commitment and contributions have enabled the organisation not only to sustain itself but to grow stronger year on year.
We benefit from an engaged and capable Board of Trustees, whose dedication is evident in every aspect of our work. Over the past year, we were pleased to welcome Sarah Mason, a qualified lawyer, who has joined our administrative team alongside Maya. Together, they are helping to drive forward our development, improve our operations, and support strategic planning.
A particularly meaningful moment in the past year was a retrospective event led by Jan Jones and David Wurtzel, who took us back to the origins of IfJ- recounting the journey from a simple idea to a registered charity. That founding vision remains central to our identity: providing a space where intermediaries can support each other, exchange ideas, and further their knowledge in what is both rewarding and challenging work.
When we first established IfJ, external support was minimal. The useful NCA/MoJ Special Measures Conference had been discontinued, and engagement with the Ministry of Justice and the Registered Intermediary Registration Team (RIRT) was limited and sometimes disheartening. In recent times, however, we have seen a shift. The return of the annual MoJ conference, including the successful event held this February, has reaffirmed a sense of recognition and connection across the intermediary community. We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the consistent efforts of RIRT and their ongoing support.
In light of these changes and continued demand, the trustees have carefully considered IfJ's ongoing role. Though we questioned whether the charity should continue, it became clear-through trustee discussions and conversations with members-that our work remains vital. Accordingly, we reaffirm our commitment to continue and evolve, supported by the energy and engagement of our trustees, who will each report further on their respective activities.
We would also like to recognise the generosity of several key supporters. Our sincere thanks go to Lady Henrietta St George for her unwavering support and financial contributions. This year, we also received donations from the Mishcon Family Trust, Alison Corob of the Cheruby Trust, and for the first time, the Ark of Noah Trust. These contributions have enabled us to subsidise our CPD programme during a financially challenging period. Further details on this will be provided in Susan's report.
We are deeply grateful to Sharon Richardson, our Membership Secretary, for her long-standing commitment to IfJ. Alongside Rochelle Cowan, Sharon has worked diligently to refresh our website and resources - a significant undertaking that will greatly benefit our members. More information on this project will be shared in due course.
Sadly, we said farewell to two valued trustees this year. Catherine Chamberlain and Rochelle Cowan have both stepped down to pursue new opportunities, with Catherine now serving as a Magistrate. We also acknowledge the departure of Paul Redfern, our Treasurer, who is now focusing on other projects, including writing a book. We thank all three for their exceptional service and contributions.
In their place, we are delighted to welcome Amanda Lynch and Daniel Spicer to the Board. They bring energy and insight and are already making a valuable impact.

INTERMEDIARIES FOR JUSTICE
Report of the Trustees FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024
As we reflect on the last ten years, we do so with pride in our achievements and optimism for the future. Intermediaries for Justice remains a vital platform for collaboration, learning, and support, and we look forward to continuing this work in the years ahead.
IfJ's WORK
Trustees meet virtually once a month and attended an Away Day 14th March 24 to help plan the direction of IfJ's work.
PROJECT WORK
IfJ was delighted to contribute to Sally Kedge's Report on intermediaries for justice around the world.
It was a pleasure to work with The University of Limerick Eire and to present on their second year of Intermediary training. They are fully supported by their Dept of Justice.
We have contributed to RCSLT's campaigning on projects involving children and adults with communication needs. For example, we signed the petition regarding InvestInSLT - https://www.rcslt.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/InvestInSLT-petition_statement.pdf.
As a member of the Alliance for Youth Justice, IfJ was invited to join a symposium on the policing of children (AYJ Symposium-Rethinking Policing). Amanda Lynch has accepted the role of rep for IfJ liaising with AYJ.
IfJ has supported The National Appropriate Adult Network (NAAN) with developing their online training for Appropriate Adults. Grev Wallington hosted a meeting with IfJ members to develop their training with the help of intermediary input.
Other projects have been:
Setting up an IfJ Working Group on Symbols Summary.
An IfJ member presented, at Vulnerability and Resilience Seminar on the recognition of Vulnerability in clients, describing for lawyers the kinds of Reasonable Adjustments that can be made to accommodate clients' needs.
We ran a training with Pump Court Chambers-Training for Immigration Solicitors.
SURVEYS
We received IfJ member valued responses to the survey this year regarding working with ISVAs and another short survey gathering opinions on supervision. Intermediary supervision and wellbeing are key to our aims at IfJ.
MoJ/RIRT
IfJ continued to have meetings with Tom Henwood and Jen Minford (Acting Head of Vulnerable Users Policy at MoJ), and we felt our discussions were fruitful.
We sent comments into MoJ about the draft Jan 2024 version of RIPGM.
We welcome working closely with RIRT and the recent development of a RI representation on the QAB (or newly named) GSB board is very welcomed.
OUTREACH FUND FOR TRAINING CJS PROFESSIONALS
IfJ reinstated our outreach fund, which invites all members to apply for some funding to cover a few hours for running trainings that help spread information about the work intermediaries do. One example was Alison Mullen (RI), who presented as an intermediary at the Inner Temple Advocacy conference (2-4 February 2024) for student barristers, with a presentation titled 'Vulnerable Witnesses: Giving Everyone an Equal Voice.'"
An IfJ member contributed to the expert witness newsletter formulated by Prof Rix. Despite expert witnesses' advice including the recommendation that a vulnerable person should have an intermediary assessment; judges still have the power to disregard experts. IfJ members have been invited to sign up to read this very informative and accessible newsletter.

Report of the Trustees FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024
CRIMINAL PRACTICE RULES COMMITTEE
As a charity IfJ were invited to apply to CPRC - Criminal Procedures Rules Committee. Robert Thomas was successful on behalf of IfJ. We have requested a chance to feedback the intermediary experience to help explain how CPRC rules translate in practice, using our members' experiences. IfJ have been invited to present this in October 2024.
CONTACT AND SUPPORT FOR MEMBERS
We held our AGM and Conference for members (27th June 2024).
The monthly drop-in sessions, hosted superbly by Charlie Orrell, continue to be very popular. Intermediaries from around the country as well as overseas (e.g. Australia, Ireland) drop in seeking advice and support on a wide range of issues from administration, court etiquette, assessment ideas, case discussion etc. The resulting discussions are always helpful and thought provoking and provide great CPD. Members also gain support from all our WhatsApp groups (Family, Child, RIs and Defence intermediaries). In a profession where there is regular turnover these all provide invaluable advice and help. As an extension of this service IfJ has recently set up a WhatsApp group for our international members of whom there are currently about 30, and we are working to strengthen our contact with intermediaries from NZ, Australia, Canada, and Ireland.
The IfJ twitter account (now known as X) fulfils a similar purpose, and we have just under 2200 followers. Our numbers are limited because X employs a formula that allows accounts to follow others in proportion to the number who they themselves follow. Currently we follow 5000 accounts. Broadly speaking these comprise individuals and groups from across the legal system in the UK and many other countries, The criteria for deciding which groups we allow to follow us includes groups advocating for and promoting the rights of the vulnerable. Our followers include Legal charities like ourselves, relevant government departments, journalists, commentators, police forces, chambers, solicitor firms, inns of court, charities supporting a wide range of vulnerable people, PCCs, academics, university departments and so on. We have followers in justice systems and those supporting the vulnerable across Europe, the USA, Australia, New Zealand, South America, Asia and Bridgend. I think our social media provision is very important at a time when we learn that just under 100 RIs have left the profession in the last few years.
Supervision and wellbeing are key to our aims at IfJ, and the following year will be dedicated to implementing this type of support in some form via IfJ.
THE CPD PROGRAMME
IfJ wish to thank presenters for delivering the following 10 CPD events to IfJ members: " Catherine Chamberlain & Sarah Baker. Working with Preschool Children (6th October 2023) " Dr Tina Pereira & Alison Matthews. Using Low Tech Communication Aids (20th October 2023)

INTERMEDIARIES FOR JUSTICE
Report of the Trustees FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024
" Catherine O'Neill & Kimberly Collins. Working with Trauma in the Justice System-Trauma Informed Practice (2nd & 9th July 2024)
Raymond Lyons has continued to host the Mental Health CPD Special Interest Group and Charlie Orrell facilitates the monthly drop-in sessions every first Tuesday of the month. Fiona Simpson also hosted a working with people with dementia meeting (7th Dec 2023).
These sessions continued to be very popular with Intermediaries attending nationally and internationally.
IfJ agreed to subsidise CPD events for this past year so that a 1-day course only cost members £50 and a workshop costs members £25. We hoped that this would increase attendance numbers. Sadly, they have remained low with some workshops needing to be offered for free rather than be cancelled. This is a concern for the long-term future of CPD events. Feedback from all CPD events has continued to be overwhelmingly positive.
A new CPD SIG hosted by Catherine Chamberlain will run three times a year and focus on assessments. There are also new courses planned for this next year, focusing on Tribunals, Emotional Regulation, Parole Board Hearings and ADHD.
We could not have run these CPD events without the support and expertise of Maya Levin Schtulberg (Admin Coordinator) and the new addition to our team Sarah Mason (CPD Projects and CPD Coordinator).
THE IfJ WEBSITE
The resources team have been hard at work with a challenging task. The aim is to re-organise the resources section so that users can clearly find all the resources relevant to them and simply seek out specific resources that they are after. It should be up and running very soon (most recent projected completion date was 30th June 2025).
There have been many complications that have caused delays, including factors to do with the website, but there's considerable movement on an approach that will function well and fit in appropriately with the website at large. We're expecting a significant expenditure on the website as the underlying architecture of our website is going to cease to be supported. The trustees have explored alternative providers but the costs of those have been prohibitive. We will therefore continue to work with Northbridge Digital to upgrade the underlying architecture and leave any website redesigns for the future. This represents the best value for money as it allows us to take a narrower approach to solving the problem and therefore spend less. We're having to do this upgrade to ensure the data safety and future functionality of the website. It's expected that this issue may recur in a few years time, at which point the website may need a visual refresh, or we repeat this process.

DATABASE FOR REFERRALS
The website hosts and manages the free referral system: a link between justice system professions requiring an intermediary to work with their client. https://www.intermediaries-forjustice.org/find-intermediary and intermediaries who are available. There are five referral categories: Vulnerable Suspects/Defendants; Family Courts; Tribunals/Hearings; Complainant or prosecution witness; and Defence Witness. While most referrals are automatically managed, there are others that require a personal response, and these are answered by Francesca Castellano. The referral system works in accordance with Adjustments the implementation of the Court Appointed Intermediary Scheme (CAIS) to ensure only members on this scheme access the referral database.
Whilst there has been a general decline in the number of referral requests through the IfJ, there has been a rise in general requests for help, support, and information. People in associated fields such as the police and probation are particularly interested in knowing more about the work of intermediaries and seek advice on how and where they might re-train.
We continue to receive a steady stream of enquiries into IFJ, many of which are regarding where to find training and suitability of becoming an intermediary. We direct them to the relevant information and groups that provide such training. We have noticed a significant upsurge in interest from mental health workers and police in retraining to carry out intermediary work.
Other requests come in for information on intermediaries who might be interested in contributing towards research and, if appropriate these calls are put out on our WhatsApp groups and newsletters.

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
