PETERBOROUGH WOMEN'S AID

TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and "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

1. Our mission

To provide a specialist response to domestic abuse and violence against women and girls; empower victims to be in control of their own future and create everlasting change.

2. Our values

These values shape the behaviours, culture and work of Peterborough Women’s Aid and they will strengthen our ability to support survivors of gender-based violence.

We achieve our mission by:

  1. Providing temporary, safe accommodation to women and their children fleeing domestic abuse and providing specialist emotional and practical support through trained, dedicated workers.

  2. Providing resettlement support to women and children at the point that they can secure independent accommodation in Peterborough.

  3. Raising awareness of domestic abuse by having an interactive website where victims and professionals can access help through webchat and direct referrals into the service. We operate a domestic abuse advice line for the Peterborough community. This includes liaising with and signposting to other domestic abuse services where required.

  4. Delivering several specialist services to the community, including support to South Asian Women (Dahlia Project), Lithuanian Women and male victims across Cambridgeshire (B-United). Community support includes, but is not exclusive to, emotional support as well as practical support including safety planning, housing, court advocacy and independent translation.

  5. Delivering the E-scape Project. We deliver the Healing Together Programme which ensures children affected by domestic abuse are able to access early trauma informed help. In secondary schools, we facilitate the DAY Programme which is a unique multimedia programme that uses short films, chart music, and advertisements to raise awareness around domestic abuse and exploitation in a relevant and exciting way.

  6. Facilitating group work programmes educating and empowering victims. These groups aim to increase self-esteem, promote healthy living, and provide peer support.

  7. Providing a safe space in our community centre, Anne’s House, where families have access to a library, internet café, prayer room, free shop and group work.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

Refuge Service

The refuge provides emergency accommodation for up to 8 women and up to 20 children who are fleeing domestic violence / abuse. Trained refuge workers provide one to one emotional and practical support to the women in the refuge, including but not exclusive to, supporting with benefit applications to ensure all the women have access to their own money, registration with a GP to ensure medical needs are taken care of, accessing legal advice in the event of non-settled immigration status or custody proceedings, access to counselling services, delivery of the Own My Life Programme, housing applications and resettlement. A package of support, through a care plan, is developed in conjunction with the woman to identify her needs and the actions required to meet those needs.

Children’s Workers

In addition to providing support to the women, the refuge employs dedicated, qualified children’s workers, who provide age appropriate emotional, practical, and educational support to the children in the refuge. This support includes but is not exclusive to, registration to nurseries or schools, age appropriate one to one support sessions designed to help the child process their experience of fleeing their home because of domestic abuse, registration with health visitors and GPs to ensure medical needs are taken care of, and activity days that are suitable for the whole family. The children’s workers are trained to deliver the ‘Healing Together’ programme which aims to support mum and child to process the trauma they have experienced together and not in isolation from each other.

Resettlement Support

We provide resettlement support for women and their children when they are successful in securing independent accommodation in Peterborough. Resettlement support includes providing grant funding to support with moving costs and/or white goods for the new home, regular outreach visits to the new home to provide ongoing support whilst the family settle into their new accommodation, referring to sanctuary specialists to ensure the family feel safe and secure in their new home, and where required, support to register children with new nurseries or schools.

Community Service

Our community workers offer support including, but not exclusive to, safety planning to ensure the victim has a plan should the risk of domestic abuse increase, access to counselling support if required, access to legal support to increase safety such as non-molestation orders, translation, and support with securing immigration status.

We have expanded our community services over the last year. The Dahlia Project, funded for two years by the Home Office, is a culturally specific service supporting women from the South Asian Community in Peterborough. B-United, funded by the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner, is a dedicated service supporting male victims of domestic abuse and our first countywide contract. We continue to have a dedicated Lithuanian Specialist Worker.

Domestic Abuse Helpline

We run a telephone helpline for victims of domestic abuse or professionals seeking advice. The advice line operates throughout the week and is run by our team members who support our community service. The advice line is available to anyone seeking support from domestic abuse in the Peterborough area and onward referrals will be made if required. In addition to the helpline, we host a ‘chat function’ on our website which is another source of information, advice, and guidance on the support options available to victims of domestic abuse.

Group Work

We have facilitated the Own My Life programme online throughout the year. Women Warriors continues to provide support to all women in Peterborough with a weekly group focusing on well-being, increasing confidence and reducing isolation. Our weekly Arts and Crafts group encourages woman to learn new skills to increase their prospects of employment or volunteering.

PETERBOROUGH WOMEN'S AID

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

Prevention

The E-scape Project (supporting Children and Protecting through Education) was launched this year focusing on prevention, by ending the cycle of abuse. Through this project we deliver the Healing Together Programme in which supports primary school children who have been affected by domestic abuse and the DAY Programme which helps young people in secondary school and six form colleges recognise unhealthy relationships.

Through the Dahlia Project, we facilitated five training sessions for professionals on honour-based abuse and female genital mutilation.

Anne’s House

In January 2024, we opened Anne’s House, a dedicated space in central Peterborough where women can meet with staff and volunteers from the charity to get the help and support they need. Since opening, the centre has had over 700 visits. Anne’s House has a lounge, prayer room, internet café, library, free shop and conference centre. Anne’s House has enabled Peterborough Women’s Aid to provide additional services, for example arranging drop in sessions on subjects such as housing and legal issues. The probation service uses Anne’s House to see their most vulnerable female clients, giving them access to our specialist support. The Raham Project who supports ethnic minority families pre and post pregnancy co-locate at Anne’s House creating more referrals pathways for women in need.

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

Achievements and performance

Financial review

The results for the year are set out on the Statement of Financial Activities.

Peterborough Women’s Aid’s financial performance has been very good this year. In addition to the higher grant income for the major projects, there has also been significant growth in our unrestricted funds. This has been a focus area, as these funds give us the most flexibility regarding the services we can provide. As importantly, they also allow us to increase our reserves in line with our expenses, ensuring we maintain the level of cover required by our reserves policy.

PETERBOROUGH WOMEN'S AID

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

Reserves policy

It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to approximately six month’s expenditure. The trustees considers that reserves at this level will act as a safeguard, in the event that Peterborough Women's Aid experience a drop in funding, and to allow Peterborough Women's Aid to continue to deliver their services whilst allowing time to seek alternative funding. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year.

The Trustees are aware of the Charities Protection and Investment Act 2016 to safeguard the public. Peterborough Women’s Aid always aim to inform the public, local businesses and other institutions about our services. Our practice is to respond to offers of donations with gratitude.

Donations

Donations made in cash or by way of gifts were received during the year from numerous local businesses, other societies and associations and from individuals.

Peterborough Women's Aid received many donations from supporters that included: funding, toiletries, toys, clothes, baby equipment, food, and equipment for the refuge.

The Trustees would like to thank everyone who has supported Peterborough Women’s Aid throughout this year.

Risk Review

Peterborough Women's Aid have developed a business continuity plan setting out the contingency plans in the event of an incident that affects the operational delivery of its core services.

Peterborough Women’s Aid have a risk register allowing The Board to identify any risks to the charity and implement mitigation measures.

The board of trustees meet on a six weekly basis where a review of risks is carried out and risk management plans implemented as required. At this time, the trustees are satisfied that there are systems in place at this time to manage risk appropriately.

Plans for future periods

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT

TO THE TRUSTEES OF PETERBOROUGH WOMEN'S AID

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Peterborough Women's Aid (the charity) for the year ended 31 March 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act).

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since the charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared financial statements in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn.

I understand that this has been done in order for financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

PETERBOROUGH WOMEN'S AID

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Peterborough Women's Aid is constituted under CIO-Foundation deed, and is registered with the Charity Commissioners under charity number 1180370.

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and "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)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

1.4 Income

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Donations, legacies and other forms of voluntary income are recognised as incoming resources when received, except insofar as they are incapable of financial measurement.

PETERBOROUGH WOMEN'S AID

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.5 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Resources expended

Expenditure, including VAT, is recognised on the accruals basis.

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both the direct costs and support costs relating to such activities.

Costs have been allocated to the activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources and staff time spent.

Management and administration costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include its audit fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity.

1.6 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Fixtures and fittings

15% per annum on reducing balance

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.

1.7 Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

1.8 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks.

1.9 Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are measured at transaction price.

PETERBOROUGH WOMEN'S AID

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors are recognised at transaction price.

1.10 Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

1.11 Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
