Trustees’ Annual report
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026
Reference and administrative information set out on page 1 forms part of this report. The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
Governance and Management
The organisation is a company limited by guarantee and registered charity. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association that establishes the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association.
Method of Recruiting and Appointing Trustees
The directors of the company are also charity trustees for the purposes of charity law and under the company’s Articles are known as the Board of Trustees. Under the requirement of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, members of the Board of Trustees are elected to serve for a period of one year after which they must be re-elected at the next Annual General Meeting.
The Board of Trustees seeks to ensure that the needs of its client group (women with mental health support needs and survivors of sexual violence and abuse) are appropriately reflected through the diversity of the trustee body. In addition, the Board of Trustees seek to ensure that there is a broad experience and skills mix on the board.
Trustee Induction and Training
New trustees are required to provide a list of their skills and training and to attend a meeting with the chair and one other member of the Board of Trustees during which she will be made aware of:
-
The obligations of Trustees;
-
The main documents which set out the operational framework for the charity including the Memorandum of Articles; and
-
Resourcing and the current financial position as set out in the latest published accounts.
In addition, new trustees are invited to and encouraged to attend a training/induction session to familiarise themselves with the charity and the context within which it operates. The session will be led by the Womankind CEO.
Organisational structure
Womankind has a Board of Trustees who meet bi-monthly and are responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity. At present, the Board of Trustees has twelve members from a variety of professional backgrounds relevant to the work of the charity.
A staffing structure with clear line management is in place and day-to-day responsibility for the provision of services rest with the CEO along with the Head of Operations, Clinical Lead, Business Manager and the Team Leader and Service Co-ordinator. The CEO is also responsible for ensuring that the charity delivers the services specified and that key performance indicators are met.

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026
Risk Management
The Board of Trustees has conducted a review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed. Where it is appropriate, systems or procedures have been established or amended to mitigate the risks that the charity faces. External risks to funding have led to the creation of a new fundraising and income generation plan which will allow for the diversification of funding and activities. Internal control risks are minimised by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects. Procedures are in place to ensure legal and regulatory compliance, including the health and safety of staff, volunteers, clients, and visitors to the centre. The organisation maintains and regularly reviews a comprehensive range of policies and procedures, including those relating to information sharing and confidentiality, safeguarding (children and adults), equality, diversity and inclusion, and complaints handling.
In addition, the charity adheres to recognised quality standards and accreditations, including those of the Helplines Partnership and the Befriending Network. During the year, the organisation was awarded Service Accreditation from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), further evidencing the quality and robustness of its clinical services.
Together, these frameworks support a consistent, safe and high-quality approach across all operational areas. Policies and procedures are subject to regular review to ensure they remain effective, up to date, and responsive to the evolving needs of the organisation and the women it supports.
Related parties
In so far as it is complementary to the charity’s objectives, Womankind is guided by both local and national policy. Womankind works in partnership with other organisations to deliver and improve services for women with mental health problems, including survivors of sexual violence and domestic abuse. Key partnerships include the Sexual Violence Alliance (Somerset and Avon Rape and Sexual Abuse Support (SARSAS), The Green House, Safe Link, The Southmead Project and The Bridge (Sexual Assault Referral Centre), Missing Link/Safe Link/Next Link, VSCE Mental Health Collaborative, Sovereign Network Group, NHS Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire Integrated Care Board and Avon and Somerset Police and Crime Commissioner.
Arrangements for setting key management personnel remuneration
The pay of the senior staff is reviewed annually, along with that of all employees, and normally increased in accordance with inflation and annual earnings.
Objectives and Activities
The Company’s objectives:
The charity’s purpose, as set out in the objects contained in the company’s memorandum of association, is to help women and girls improve their mental health and well-being (particularly, but not limited to those whose mental health and well-being has been affected by sexual violence or abuse), through the provision of advice and information, and the provision of free or affordable support and professional therapy, and a therapeutic environment.

Trustees’ Annual report
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026
The main objectives for the year continued to be helping women to live successfully in the community and where appropriate, to prevent their admission to hospital by supporting an improvement in their mental health and well-being. The strategies employed to meet these objectives include the following:
-
Providing a range of high quality, accessible and responsive services that are reflective of relevant quality standards and address the issues related to women’s mental health.
-
Developing services for women who have experienced domestic abuse, rape and sexual violence.
-
Entering into partnerships and working arrangements with other organisations to maximise the availability of support for women.
-
Improving access for women from different groups, for example, refugees, asylum seekers, trafficked, young, sensory impaired and disabled women.
The Company’s activities:
The main areas of charitable activity are the provision of a telephone and webchat helpline, befriending services, therapy groups, and individual counselling.
Womankind co-produced a training package that aims at improving the Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire response to women’s mental health needs through the provision of specialist equalities training to the statutory and VCSE mental health workforce.
The trustees have paid due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit in deciding what activities Womankind should undertake.
Achievements and Performance
Womankind has provided vital mental health support for many women over the past forty years and remains committed to developing and sustaining services that reach the most vulnerable and disadvantaged groups within the community. Over the year, our dedicated team supported significant numbers of women with a range of high quality, accessible and responsive services. Our helpline volunteers responded to 6,046 calls, webchats and emails from women in distress. We supported 80 women through our befriending projects and 291 women through one-to-one counselling and group therapy. In March 2026, our counselling and psychotherapy services were awarded BACP accreditation, recognising our sustained commitment to high-quality, ethical and evidence-based practice. This achievement marks the completion of our objective to secure external accreditation across all core services, including the helpline, befriending and psychological therapies.
We also maintained a strong role in regional partnership and systems-change work. This included working alongside the Avon and Somerset Sexual Violence Alliance Pathfinder Project and contributing to the Pathfinder Report (2025), which outlines the three-year, NHS England-funded initiative to improve support pathways for adult survivors of sexual violence. The accompanying Co-production Report shares insights from survivors about accessing therapeutic services and sets out key recommendations for improvement.
In addition, we co-led the Psychological Therapies Review with Bristol Mind and NHS partners, identifying gaps in provision for underserved people with complex needs and helping to shape more accessible therapy pathways.

Through the Women’s Health Hub Programme, we also collaborated with regional partners to improve women’s access to, and experiences of, local healthcare services.
Telephone and Webchat Helpline
The Helpline is staffed by trained and supervised volunteers and is open every weekday morning, Monday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons, and Monday and Tuesday evenings.
A total number of 4,048 telephone calls, 427 webchats and 1,571 emails were handled during the year 2025/26, 576 more than in the previous year. Over a third of women disclosed sexual abuse, rape or domestic abuse, and we have seen increasing numbers of women facing financial hardship, homelessness or housing insecurity. Most homelessness-related contacts were from women leaving abusive relationships with nowhere to go, including mothers who escaped violence with their children. The helpline continues to be a crucial route into all our services and often the first safe space where women feel heard. 94% of helpline callers were able to talk openly about their issue and 72% felt heard and supported.
“I've been holding my breath all day and I haven't been able to eat. I can breathe again since talking to you.” | “The person I spoke to on the webchat listened so carefully and was so compassionate to what I was going through. I've gone from feeling awful, angry and self-destructive to feeling cared about and safe again.”
Befriending Services
Womankind's befriending services include a specialist sexual violence service for women living in Bristol, providing one-to-one support for up to a year for survivors via volunteer befrienders who are trained in mental health, sexual violence and trauma-informed care. The aim of the service is to improve the mental health, wellbeing and resilience of women who have been victims of sexual assault so that they can engage, cope and recover. Befriending is also provided for up to a year for referred women survivors of sexual violence with enduring mental health issues living in Bristol and South Gloucestershire, and for up to six months for Sovereign Network Group female tenants who have experienced domestic abuse and/or sexual violence.
In 2025/26 we have offered in person and remote Befriending support, building resilience by providing routine, connection, and integration into community activities for 80 isolated, vulnerable women.
Womankind’s in-person Befriending service supported 45 befriending partnerships, equating to approximately 5,400 hours of befriending support. The remote service supported 35 befriending partnerships, equating to approximately 4,200 hours of befriending support.
All women completing the Warwick Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale (WEMWBS) end of service evaluation forms have reported improvements in mental health and well-being, such as improved emotional regulation, confidence and self-esteem. Many women have reported improved social support networks and relationships, as well as feeling safer, less reliant on support from other services and more hopeful. Qualitative feedback shows the transformative nature of the befriending relationship, with many of the women we support describing it as life-changing and empowering. Feedback received in 2025/26:

“I feel a lot happier and positive about the future. I've got things to look forward to now: new friends, places to go. I want to start my business up again.” | “I wasn’t leaving the house. Now I go out alone, hold my head high. If I’m anxious about someone near me, I step aside – just like my Befriender taught me.”
Counselling and Group Therapy Services
Therapy Groups
Analytic therapy groups provide a structured and consistent intervention, offering a safe space for women to address enduring mental health issues. The intended outcomes are improved mental health and wellbeing, alongside increased resilience and the ability to make positive, sustained changes in their lives.
During the year, Womankind delivered four weekly therapy groups, each supporting up to eight women. These groups provided longer-term, intensive support for women on low incomes experiencing enduring and complex mental health needs often arising from abuse and trauma. Feedback received in 2025/26:
“Womankind rebuilt me and I can’t thank you enough for that.” | “Both therapists were really good, professional and kind. This is an amazing service and I am really grateful to have had this support. It has enabled me to change my life in so many positive ways.”
Counselling
Womankind offers culturally and trauma informed counselling delivered by qualified psychotherapists and counsellors and by counsellors who are in training at Diploma level or above. All counsellors receive regular supervision provided by Womankind. We offer counselling services flexibly and responsively (online or in-person) to meet women's needs and preferences. Most counselling was delivered in person during 2025/26. Specific services include:
-
General counselling service for women including a high intensity service for clients with complex mental health needs.
-
Counselling for Deaf and hard of hearing women with a signing counsellor.
-
Specialist rape and sexual abuse counselling service delivered in partnership with the Sexual Violence Alliance.
-
Specialist young women’s counselling services. These services are delivered in partnership with SARSAS and Next Link.
-
Counselling to support women refugee, asylum seeking and trafficked women survivors of abuse and exploitation, with language interpreters.
-
Affordable fee-paying general counselling.
A total number of 291 women received weekly counselling or group therapy sessions during the year. Across all counselling & group therapy services, women showed improved mental health and wellbeing, resilience, confidence and safety.
In 2025/26, 96% of women supported through counselling demonstrated an improvement in their mental health and wellbeing. (Safer Women’s Project for refugee, asylum seeking and trafficked

“My counsellor has been like a light in the darkness of my life.” | “I’m able to look after my children much better.” | “My counsellor has helped me heal from some of my past trauma.”
Training for professionals
Womankind’s Women’s Health Inequalities Training (WIT) has continued to complement our services and mission. Originally co-produced with Missing Link in response to the Women’s Health Strategy, the training aims at improving the Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire response to women’s mental health needs through the provision of specialist equalities training to the statutory and VCSE mental health workforce. The training has reached over 1,200 people to date and equips mental health professionals with the knowledge and skills to recognise and address the specific barriers women face, helping ensure timely and appropriate support. The programme proved so successful that we extended it beyond the planned end date of September 2025. Womankind now delivers the programme independently.
Volunteers
Volunteers are at the centre of our model of support:
We trained 135 volunteers who work on the Helpline, Webchat and Befriending and support core organisational, communications and administrative tasks.
88% of Womankind volunteers have previous lived experience of mental health challenges and/or abuse and violence (Womankind Lived Experience Survey 2025), which enhances the impact of our peer led approach.
Our volunteers report increased confidence, along with new skills and experience that strengthens their long-term career aspirations. Their contributions create a powerful cycle of women supporting and empowering one another, building resilience, cohesion and leadership across our communities. Many of our volunteers have progressed into paid roles within the organisation including into our Senior Leadership Team.
Funding
In addition to receiving statutory grants from the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) via the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner (OPCC), Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire Integrated Care Board (BNSSG ICB), NHS England & South Gloucestershire Council for commissioned services, the organisation has secured grants from the following sources:
-
The Bromley Trust and The Brook Trust to support women refugees, asylum seekers and trafficked women who are survivors of abuse and exploitation.
-
Somerset and Avon Rape and Sexual Abuse Support (SARSAS) for women’s rape and sexual abuse counselling (including a Young Women’s Service) as part of the Sexual Violence Alliance.

The National Lottery towards our Befriending Service for isolated women with mental health issues and/or survivors of sexual violence, and Sovereign Network Group to provide a Befriending Service for their own tenants who have experienced domestic abuse and/or sexual violence.
-
The Garfield Weston Foundation towards our telephone and webchat helpline and core costs.
Together with an unrestricted grant from the Nani Huyu Charitable Trust and a number of other small (under £5k) grants and donations from several trusts and foundations and individuals to support our service provision generally and our core costs.
Financial Review
As at 31 March 2026, Womankind remains in a financially stable position. The charity generated a surplus of £1,655 compared to £57,662 in 2025. There has been a 2.5% increase in total income compared to 2025. This is due to securing additional grants and cost-of-living inflationary increases, enabling the charity to maintain its services in the face of rising levels of need.
Total expenditure increased by 11% from the previous year, this is due to increased costs and activity driven by the increased demand for the charity's services and the need to strengthen our core staff and management capacity. New staff have been recruited, and staff hours have increased.
Womankind currently has an unrestricted general reserve of £293,884 (2025: £327,127) (3.7 months plus redundancy) which is slightly more than the amount required (currently £260,000) by the Trustees stated reserves policy as set out below. However, in this unstable financial climate the Trustees consider it prudent to mitigate any financial risks by maintaining a greater level of reserves for robust financial governance.
As at 31 March 2026, Womankind holds £117,996 (2025: £53,098) in restricted funds committed for use toward specific projects in 2027 and £63,600 (2025: £93,600) in designated funds, designated by the trustees for use toward specific projects/aims over the next 5 years.
Reserves policy
The Board of Trustees have agreed that they will as far as possible, maintain a surplus on unrestricted funds equal to at least three months running costs plus reserves to cover its staff redundancy liability. In the event that the surplus on unrestricted funds falls below this level, the Board of Trustees will budget for surpluses in the next three years to recover the position.
Funds Received as Agent or Funds Held as Custodian Trustee
There are no assets, classes of assets or categories of assets held on behalf of other entities.
Statement of Responsibilities of the Board of Trustees

-
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

Pension costs charged in the financial statements represent the contribution payable by the charitable company during the year.
