Domestic abuse is a cross cutting issue impacting on every aspect of the lives of those affected. including the wider
ne￿orkS of family, friends, and community. Partnerships are vital as no single agency can rneet the wide-ranging
needs and we work closely with key partners such as Criminal Justice agencies, Health, Housing. other charities.
and most importantly, the communitie$ we serve.
The needs are wide ranging and in response, we continue to develop and expand services in line with feedback from
service users, changing trends in data, and new legislation.
Our prevention strategy includes services that encourage early intervention through greater visibility, easier access,
training, awareness raising and enabling wider participation on this agenda.
Dealing with the cause of the problem is a priority through addressing perpetrator behaviour and we have expanded
this service significantly lo address the differing needs and levels of risk that perpelralors pose.
Our main provision is the delivery of key crisis services for victims and survivors al all levels of risk. In accordan¢e
with 2021 DA Ael this now includes the provision of services for children and young people including safe temporary
accommodation (Refuge). filling security on properties through our Sanctuary Scheme and access lo legal

WWIN secured the Women's Aid Quality Mark for all service areas. Our accommodation was highlighted as a very
high standard.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Our income increased this year from £1,930.331 in the year ending March 2023 10 £2,356,822 in the year ending
March 2024. This was partly due to an 11 % cost of living increase on our main Icouncill contract and also to high
occupancy rates in our accommodation.
Expendrf(uie increased from £1,797,363 {2023} 10 £2,077,379120241,' expenditure would have been higher but, like
many other employers, we experienced some challenges in staff recruitment in this period.
The Trustees are commttted lo using the Charity's reseNes in the best interests of rts beneficiaries and have
invested substantially in capital assets that deliver direct services and are independently sustainable, rather than
building high levels of cash reserves. This will continue to be our strategy.
Investment policy
The Trustees are committed lo using the charities reserves in the best interests of ils beneficiaries and have invested
substantially in ¢apilal assets that deliver direct services and are independently sustainable rather than building high
levels of cash reserves.
Rgserrfes pollcy
WWIN'S reserves policy aims to mitigate any financial risks that the charity may encounter, with recognib.on of
potential fluclualions in income streams that are difficutt to predict in the longer term. A risk management plan is
used to support the mitigation of any such risks and having agreed this plan. the Board accept a level of between
three and six month's running costs as unrestricted cash reserves for the Charity. Al 31st March 2024, unreslricled
reserves stood al £790,589 lan increase on the previous year, representing 4.5 month's running costsl. Going
forward we have plans to invest further in our pioperties and will use some of our unreslricled reserves, alongside
grant funding to do this. In addition lo these unreslricled reserves, designated lunreslricledl funds were also held for..
property1£1,389,9331.' accommodalion1£70,0001. The majority of these designated funds are held in fixed assets.
PLANS FOR THE FUTURE
The Trustees appreciate the significant support received from Sunderland City Council. the Office of the Police and
Crime Commissioner IOPPC} for Northumbria. independent grant funders, businesses and the Communities across
Wearside that have supported the Charities modernisalion plans ovef the last fwe years.
This has enabled additional services, strengthened existing provision, and sel the scene for further development

STRUCTURE. GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Objectives and pollcles
The charity's activlties expose it to a number of financial risks including credit risk, cash flow risk and liquidity risk.
The use of financial derivatives is governed by the charills policies approved by the board of trustees. which provide
written principles on the use of financial derivatives to manage these risks. The charlly does not use derivative
financial instruments for speculative purposes.
Governing Document
Wearside Women In Need CIO was established on 7th February 2019 and became operational on 1st April 2019
with the assets transferred from the previous charity at that date.
Rlsks
The major risks have been reviewed by the trustees. wrth systems in place to manage the risks. Key risks have been
identified below.
Cash flow rlsk
The charity's activities expose il primarily lo the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and
interest rates. The charity uses foreign exchange forward contracts and inteiest rate swap contracts to hedge these
exposures. Interest bearing assets and liabilities are held al fixed rale to ensure eertainly of cash flows.
Cradit risk
The charity's principal financial assets are bank balances and cash. trade and other receivables, and investrnenls.
The charlty's ¢redil risk is primarily allributable to ils trade receivable$. The amounts presented in the balance sheet
are nel of allowances for doubtful receivables. An allowance for impairment is made where there is an identified loss
event which, based on previous experience, is evidence of a reduction in the recoverability of the cash flows.
The credit risk on liquid lunds and derivative financial instruments is limited because the counterparties are banks
with high credit-ratings assigned by inlemalional credit-rating agencies. The charity has no significant concentration
of credit risk. wrth exposure spread over a large number of counterparttes and customers.
Liquidity risk
In order lo maintain liquidity lo ensure that sufficient funds are available for ongoing operations and future
developments, the charity uses a mixture of long-lerm and short-lerm debt finance. Further details regarding liquidity
risk can be found in the Statement of accounting policies in the financial slalements.
Appolntment of Trustees
The Board of Trustees consider the recruitment of new trustees as the need arises and Trustees are appointed
following rigorous review. Once appointed they undertake training lo ensure they have the skills and knowledge lo
perform their duties.
Remuneration policy
Remuneration is set by 8n HR sub-group made up of a subset of Iruslees and advtsed by an independent HR
advisor. All staff are paid al least the living wage, decisions about executive pay are determined by the trustees.

Independent Auditors. Report to the members of Wearside Women in Nggd (Condnued)
Forthe year ended 31 March 2024
Auditor's rg$ponsibilities for the audit of the financlal staternents
We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Chaiilies Act 2011 and report in a¢¢ordan¢e with the
regulations made under section 154 of that Act.
Our objectives are lo obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from
material rnisslalemenl, whether due to fraud or error. and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assuran￿, but is not 8 guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance
with ISAS IUKI will always delect a material misstatement when il exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error
and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected lo influence the
eeonomic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial stalemenls.
Itregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in
line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to delect malertal misstatements in respect of irregularities, including
fraud. The extent lo which our prwedures are capable of delecling irregularities. including fraud. is detailed below.
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable lo both Ihe charity itself and the
industry in which it operates. We identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected lo have
a material effect on the financial statements from our sector experience and through discussion with the trustees and
other management. The most significant were identified as the Charities Act 2011, UK GAAP IFRS1021 and relevant
lax legislation. We considered the exlenl of compliance with those laws and regulations as part of our procedures on
the related financial statements. Our audit procedures included-.
making enquires of trustees and management as lo where they consider there to be a susceplibilily lo fraud and
whether they have any knowledge or suspicion of fraud..
obtsining an understsnding of the inleinal controls established to miligale risks related lo fraud or non-
compliance with laws and regulations-,
reviewing the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance..
assessing the risk of management override including identifying and testing journal entries.. and
confimialion received directly from the banks lo veTify the balance at 31 March 2024.
Our audit did not idenlty any key audit mallers relating lo the detection of irregularities including fraud. However,
despite the audit being planned and conducted in accordance with ISAS {UKI there remains an unavoidable risk that
material misstatements in the financial statements may not be detected owing to inherent limitations of the audit, and
that by their very nature, any such instances of fraud or irregularity likely involve collusion, forgery, intentional
misrepresentations. or the override of internal controls.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial
Reporting Council's website al.. ￿.frC.org.uklaudIt0rsreSponSlbllttles. This description forms part of our auditor's
report.
