FEATHERS FUTURES CIO REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2024 CHAIR'S SUMMARY

The past year has been an incredible year for Feathers Futures that has seen continued growth in the number of women accessing the courses and support from the charity.

Due to the generosity of our funders, we have been able to keep up with the demand for support for the women of Great Yarmouth.

In amongst all the brilliant work, we unfortunately experienced the sad loss of one of our trustee's Sarah Tilley, who was immensely proud to be a trustee of the charity, and we will be forever thankful for her time and commitment.

I would like to thank all the funders, local business, members of our community, trustees, staff and volunteers for all their hard work and commitment. Without you all Feathers Futures would not be the charity it is today.

Donna Baldwin Chair of Trustees

Achievement and Performance

This year it is our great pleasure to be able to say that we are now an award winning charity, winning the BBC Make A Difference Award 2023 for best community group in Norfolk.

As a charity run by women in Great Yarmouth for women in Great Yarmouth we are incredibly proud to have been recognised for the difference we are making to our community.

Each year we reflect back on how we have grown, developed and continued to deliver support and activities that respond to the needs of the women in our community, this year is no different. We have settled into our new premises and together with the women who attend we have worked hard to create it into the warm welcoming safe space that was needed.

This enabled us to respond to enquiries from 531 women, deliver groups and activities to 467 women, provide placements to 11 student counsellors who, between them, completed 1059 hours of counselling, train 30 volunteers with lived experience to support the charity, as well as continue to run our very busy toiletries bank.

We have strengthened and developed new partnerships to enable us to expand our offer of activities beyond those delivered by our small team of staff, including continuing our work with the University of East Anglia, supporting women's health research and health inequalities, this partnership has seen us present to student midwives for the first time and host both student midwives and researchers on projects to better understand the needs of women in Great Yarmouth, we also signed the Civic UEA charter. In addition we have worked with The Central School of Speech and Drama in London on a literary project and performance that produced some beautiful poetry inspired by women through history in Great Yarmouth and Edgefield Dance Company, Place of Place project looking at how places make us feel and exploring that through dance.

We are pleased to have partnered with St Giles to become a peer hub host organisation, this allowed us access to additional training and resources, resulting in three women achieving their NVQ level 3 Information, Advice and Guidance qualifications.

We have continued to build links with our local community, our Care for a Cuppa week was a success with a number of businesses and community groups hosting fundraising coffee mornings for us, these not only raised funds but highlighted our work, raising awareness of what we do within our community. In addition to Care for a Cuppa we have attended events throughout the Borough allowing us to engage with people who otherwise wouldn’t know about what we do.

In September we were saddened by the passing of our trustee Sarah Tilley, Sarah championed Feathers Futures from when it was just an idea and was a big supporter both in her professional capacity and personally. Sarah's family chose donations for Feathers Futures at her funeral and we have redecorated our counselling room in her memory, “Sarah’s Space” is now a welcoming safe space for women to receive counselling and feel comforted during their most difficult times. The impact Sarah had on everyone she met will live on at Feathers Futures for many years to come. Jodie, Sarah’s daughter has chosen to carry on her mums passion by becoming a trustee, Jodie shares the same vision for women in our community and we know she will continue the great work her mum started.

We are proud of the difference we continue to make in our community and would like to thank each and every person who has been part of helping to make sure Feathers Futures has had another successful year, and continues to be such a special place in the heart of Great Yarmouth.

Activities offered this year:

Domestic Abuse Recovery Toolkit - We continue to deliver this course written by Sue Penna from Rockpool Life CIC the nationally recognised course is for women who have experienced domestic abuse in the past and are no longer in the relationship. It looks at the impact the abuse can leave behind and ways to move forward, building a "toolkit" of helpful resources focusing on self-esteem and future well-being.

1-1 counselling - Counsellors volunteer with Feathers Futures and come for their placement while completing their counselling degrees with The University of Suffolk, this year has seen us welcome students from the BA (hons) Person Centred Counselling Degree in addition this year we have welcomed students from the postgraduate Msc Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Counselling course.

Craft group and Crafternoon - The groups run evenings as well as during the week and are always incredibly popular. Throughout the year there have been various projects from creating an angel for the towns angel festival to learning new crafts such as resin.

Sew Sisters - Our newly formed group brings together women who can sew to support women who want to learn to sew, together they have been adjusting clothes, making cushions and collectively created a beautiful quilt that is displayed in Feathers House reception, each square made individually and pieced together. This project will run for two years thanks to funding from The People’s Health Trust.

Drop-in/Coffee morning - Friday drop-in continues and is very well attended, anyone can pop in and find out more about what we do, collect any toiletries or sanitary products they need, have refreshments and a chat. We have seen an increase in professionals accompanying women for the first time in this way which has helped for a smooth transition between services.

Exercise classes for beginners - We continue to run a Zumba class each week, currently we are funding this through donations as we know the benefits of exercise and financial barriers that would prevent some from attending other classes in the community.

Own My Life - A 12-week online or in-person course to help women who have been subjected to abuse to regain ownership of their lives.

Gardening club - We have a lovely courtyard created by volunteers with raised beds and pots, growing an array of vegetables and flowers. Making it a lovely space to sit in during the nice weather.

Sole Sisters - The walking group continued throughout the summer and was paused over winter, with a plan to restart in spring 2024.

Feathers Friends - Is a peer support network where women come together and support each other whilst making friends and reducing isolation.

Cookery Courses - Partnering with Norfolk Adult Education we deliver bespoke cookery courses at Feathers Futures, cooking on a budget and slow cooking courses, supporting women to be able to cook nutritious meals for themselves and their families on a budget.

Outreach - We deliver one off sessions and courses at various locations across the borough where transport to our hub may be difficult, this year has seen us in Hopton, Hemsby and Gorleston.

Monthly Book Club - The Book club is led by keen volunteers with a passion for books and is a very popular group who have read a variety of different genres.

Free toiletries, period products and make-up - Thanks to incredibly kind donations we have been able to offer free products to anyone in need, we have expanded this to providing free period products in toilets across the borough as we want to eradicate period poverty and make products accessible to all. Currently we have products in local church halls, GP surgeries and other community spaces.

Its All About Me! - This 6 week confidence building, self-esteem and self-care course has proved to be very popular, with daytime and evening courses it always has a waiting list.

Volunteering - We have a volunteer programme that offers various opportunities within Feathers Futures, each volunteer has their own personal development plan that looks at training and development linked to their future goals.

Peer Mentors - We offer bespoke accredited training by Cohort4 in Peer Mentoring Women with Complex Needs alongside modules such as safeguarding, lone working and domestic abuse awareness to train women who have been through our service to support women who are new to Feathers Futures. So far we have trained 17 women as peer mentors and plan to continue offering this training.

We are here - Collaboration with Original Projects; and Central School of Speech and Drama to deliver workshops on creative writing and performing arts to women from Feathers Futures

The Place of Place - Collaboration with Dance East to deliver workshops exploring feelings through dance and movement.

FEATHERS FUTURES CIO FINANCIAL REVIEW FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2023 CONTINUED

Reserves Policy

The Trustees consider the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the Charity's needs and circumstances. This is based on the charity's size and level of commitments held. The Trustees endeavour not to set aside funds unnecessarily. The Trustees aim to ensure the charity will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable objectives even if there is a temporary shortfall in income or unexpected expenditure. In doing this the Trustee's aim to make sure that the current budget forecast and reserves levels allow the charity to continue in operation for a rolling six month period and we have met this aim.

The Trustees recognise that the charity is in a good financial position for the end of the year and financial projections for the next financial year is that agreed funding should enable us to deliver and develop to meet demand.

Future plans

As a small charity facing increasing demands year on year we need to make sure we have the appropriate people, skills, resources, strategies and processes in place to work as effectively and efficiently as we can.

We know the cost of living crisis continues and the demand on our charity has increased, alongside the rising bills and staff costs, we will need to increase our income if we want to keep up with demand and not restrict our support. We are predominantly grant funded and will continue to apply for grants as appropriate but using our strategic plan we will be looking at diversifying our income streams and developing different ways for people to support us so we can continue being part of our community for the long term.

We will ensure as we grow that the leadership and culture remains values led and we continue to hold our core values at the heart of all we do, ensuring the women in Great Yarmouth keep their charity meeting their needs exactly as they have designed it.
