Trustees of the Charitable Incorporated Organisation present their combined director's report and Report of the Trustees, as required by company law, together with the financial statements of the Latin American Women's Aid Refuge for the year ended on 31st March 2025. 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 (FRS102) (effective 1st January 2019).

Objectives:

The Latin American Women's Aid Refuge (LAWA) support Latin American and other Black Minority Ethnic (BME) women and their children experiencing gender violence to start a new life and play a fuller role in the community through tailored advice, advocacy, outreach and refuge services. We promote women's independence and autonomy, as well as a non-violent environment for women and their children.

Organisation:

The trustees meet quarterly and take major decisions regarding the strategic direction of the charity. The trustees delegate the responsibility of operational management to the Director, who works together with a Leadership Team.

The trustees have received training to ensure that the work follows to the Charity Commission's guidance on "Charities and Public Benefit”. Under Section 4 of the Charities Act 2011, the trustees considered the restrictions to benefit a section of the public, based on ethnic/national origin, and gender, to strictly fall within our charitable objects. No other restrictions apply, and trustees do not receive any remuneration for their services. Expenses reimbursed to trustees on this financial year were nil.

Aims, principal activities and review:

LAWA is a dedicated by and for Latin American and other Black and Ethnic minoritised women’s organisation that has 37 years of experience in supporting survivors of genderbased violence to break free from abuse and improve theirs and their children’s lives. It is our main goal to enable our service user’s social, economic and personal empowerment, promoting women’s independence and autonomy as well as an environment free from violence for women and their children to thrive.

LAWA was set up to support women (and their children) who, because of physical, emotional and/or sexual abuse, there are at risk and require advice and/or emergency accommodation. Since 1988 we have been running the only refuge scheme led by and for Latin American women and children in the UK and Europe and currently operates four refuges in confidential locations across London.

In addition to providing refuge services, LAWA provides comprehensive services to address gender-based violence practices such as Domestic Violence (DV), sexual abuse, and trafficking. We also support service users to start a new life and facilitate their integration into the wider UK society through tailored and culturally appropriate advice and immigration services, advocacy, counselling, and community engagement activities.

All our services are offered in our service user’s own languages (in the case of other black and minoritised women who don’t speak Spanish, Portuguese or English, we work in partnership with other black and minoritised organisations to provide interpretation services) and provided in women-only spaces. LAWA’s embeds an intersectional approach in its work, and our refuges and related services have been conceptualised using a rights-based framework, focusing in supporting women to assert their rights through the provision of a holistic response -which includes referrals and collaboration with other vital statutory and voluntary support agencies, hence resulting in lasting impact. Finally, through publicity and outreach activities we raise awareness about the Latin American community in the UK and on how violence against women affects us.

Statement of activities

improve the lives of women and children from the communities we work with by reducing the impact of gender-based violence upon them. Our advice, advocacy and preventative work provides direct benefit to both the recipients of our services and the general public by contributing positively to a better society. We seek to provide women and children escaping gender-based violence with a place of safety and in so doing, we positively contribute to the reduction of homelessness. Our services are free and open to the sector of the public who we exist to help. We conduct an annual audit of our charitable activities.

The trustees confirm that they have referred to the Charity Commission's general guidance on Public Benefit when reviewing and shaping the charity's aims and objectives for the year and when planning future activities. The charity works to ensure that its projects are inclusive, accessible, and responsive to the needs of its service users.

We operate to capacity, and our services are always oversubscribed, delivering quality, nationally unique and internationally recognised service, always achieving high performance results in our external reviews (AQS and NQS accredited). We are also active members of both Women's Aid and Imkaan and have affiliations with many vital networks working towards achieving equality for Latin American women and their children. We are also registered with the IAA to offer immigration advice, and the BACP for our counselling services.

LAWA’s services – overview of current delivery services, gaps, and emerging needs

We have carefully planned and implemented our services ensuring they are cost effective and bring long lasting changes to the lives of service users. We are entering into the last year of implementation of our current organisational strategy, which means we will work together with our staff and service users to create our new plan for the following years. Our goal is to remain creative and agile, taking every learning opportunity to improve and strengthen our services, and ensure we continue responding to service users’ evolving needs. Currently, our five areas of work are as follows:

Impact

In 2024-2025, throughout all our services, LAWA has directly supported 1,116 women and children with 6,652 interventions[1] and further 600 women indirectly through our policy work in the WAHA Project and our LBTQ+ outreach activities. This represents an increase of 7% in the number of women supported directly and a reduction of 11% in the number of interventions – this is mainly as a result of the closure of one of our refuges. The most recent audit report from Women’s Aid, found that 60% of the women referred to refuge accommodation were not accepted, and from this 47% was due to lack of available spaces.[2] The ongoing housing national crisis is an on-going challenge for women fleeing from gender-based violence and the access to refuge services and other forms of accommodation continues to be critical.

1 Intervention is defined as single actions carried out with a service user, this includes key sessions, referrals, evidence submission, liaising with external agencies, court sessions, among others.

Rather than just offering crisis intervention and sign posting services, LAWA has ensured the provision of a holistic support throughout a survivors journey that is meaningful, personalised and empowering, e.g. by accompanying service users to key meetings and appointments (such as housing appointments, court cases, etc.) and advocating on their behalf, supporting expanded skills and knowledge (e.g. through language courses and making them aware of their rights and entitlements) and strengthening their confidence so that they can live a full and independent life. We have learnt that meticulous planning, on-going service users’ consultation and involvement, and the development of a relationship based on trust and non-judgemental is fundamental to make our services effective and have a long-lasting impact.

LAWA takes monitoring, evaluation and learning seriously, as it enables us to assess and improve our services, as well as ensure we continue responding to the evolving needs of users of our services. We have an internal data base system that allow us to record information about service users as well as the support and interventions provided, ensuring confidentiality and data protection compliance. In order to measure impact, different monitoring and evaluation tools are used. During this year, we carried out a comprehensive review of all our data collection tools to ensure that the forms where up to date and they reflect the changes in the system (for instance, in the area of immigration) and the new services within the organisation.

The data collection tools include initial assessments, mid-term feedback forms, POWA (Personal outcomes and wellbeing assessment), and service evaluation forms. By the end of the year, we revise the recorded data to identify trends, gaps and areas of improvement. We produce a thorough analysis of the support provided across the different service and information that can be used as evidence. As we started to use some of the new data collection tools ahead in the year, statistics may reflect incomplete information. This will be solved by the next year as all the processes are now in place. Some of these statistics, that evidence the impact of LAWA’s work are the following:

From 239 supported women who completed the evaluation form at the Advice Centre, 88,3% said that the advice given increased your knowledge about their rights, options and services in the UK.
From 17 women who completed the evaluation form at the Refuge, 94,1% reported feeling that the advice given increased their knowledge about their rights, options and services in the UK.
With LAWA support, about 1/3 of the women at the refuges were more capable of recognise abusive behaviours in a relationship. They also report that they felt more confident and can cope with daily activities more easily.
From 22 women supported who completed the evaluation form at the Counselling, 100% said they felt really listened by the therapist.

Added value and key achievements:

The context in which LAWA operates continues to worsen in terms of complexity and systemic challenges. During the last year, the country experienced a national wave of anti-immigration riots, increase sentiment against migrants’ communities, hardening of immigration policies and in general a worsen hostile environment. Statutory agencies such as housing departments, social services, NHS and police, continue to face budget cuts which has a direct impact on the support we provide to service users and the outcomes they can achieve. Two interconnected areas are now particularly concerning: the quality of the housing options provided to women (houses in extremely poor maintenance conditions) and the lack of mental health services. The combination of these two is deepening the needs of women as the lack of dignified housing options can negatively impact their mental health.

Despite this, we have been able to maintain our services, and during this year we have had the following achievements:

provision of refuge accommodation to Latin American and other Black and Minoritised women and children fleeing gender-based violence. The new house will increase capacity by 37,5% rooms, and 23,7% bed spaces. This achievement will not also help the organisation to increase capacity but will also contribute to the organisational financial sustainability.
Successfully secured commissioning for the third year of the Great London Authority (GLA) and Mayor’s Office for Police and Crime (MOPAC) for the provision of specialist refuge accommodation and the OYA Partnership projects for specialist service in refuge accommodation and counselling.
Intersectionality as a Practice: LAWA’s roadmap to address black and Minoritised survivors needs. The report aims to open a space for the WAHA project to deepen on the conversation that recognises the intersection of race, violence, poverty and homelessness as a critical element to creating models and policies that will effectively address those subjected to deprivation under the current social housing crisis in the UK.

LAWA has continued prioritising being part of coalitions, networks and working groups aiming to address Violence against Women and Girls (VAWG) such as the VAWG Business Group and the VAWG networking in Islington represented by the Samira Project; the Hackney VAWG Practitioner Forum and VAWG Strategic Board in Hackney and the Barnet Community Safety Partnership. LAWA is also a delivery partner of the CASA project, led by Solace and funded by the GLA. We are members of the GLA Partnership Board, and the Funding implementation group. In the previous year, LAWA joined two others by and for organisations and Women’s Aid Federation to participate in a national group with

different local authorities to improve commissioning practices to increase by and for specialist provision. The space was organised by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG). During this year we concluded our participation in this group with a final submission of recommendations to improve commissioning of by and for organisations across the country.

Finally, this year, Gabriela Quevedo, Director of Advocacy, Community and Learning resigned to her role. The Board would like to thank Gabriela for all her work for the organisation, not only in her latest role but also previously as Director and as a Trustee. The SMT will be reconfigured during the first semester of the year following year.

Financial review

LAWA’s income (without the partnership income) decreased by 13% (from £1,874,968 in 2023/2024 to £1,656,630). The total income was £2,645,933 due to LAWA being the lead in the OYA Consortium and receiving the resources to distribute amongst the partner organisations in the consortium: £989,303 are resources to be paid to the partner organisations. Of the total income, £2,213,477 was restricted (23/24: £2,222,145) and the remaining £432,456 (23/24: £623,308) was unrestricted. Total expenditure during the year amounted to £2,275,629 compared to £2,448,239 in 23/24.

Trustees also implemented a cost-of-living increase of 4% to staff salaries.

A summary of the financial activities for the year is given on page 14 of the financial statements.

Plans for the future

LAWA enters the last year of its 2022/2026 organisational strategy and is on track of achieving the set outcomes. The Board is pleased to report that, as established at the beginning of the year, the organisation has successfully completed the purchase of its first property that will be used to increase capacity for refuge accommodation services. During the first quarter of the following year, the team will be carrying out works to set up the scheme in compliance with all relevant regulations (Health and Safety, Fire Alarm system, etc.). In response to the external challenging environments and global trends to reduce funding for the voluntarily sector, the Board will maintain the sustainability fund and as part of the organisational strategy development, further plans will be included.

The current global, national and local context is complex. The Board is concerned with the wider sector vulnerability and the global tendency to defund organisations like LAWA. In response to this, the team continues to work closely with government agencies to ensure there is recognition and understanding of the pivotal role our organisations play in the national plans to halve VAWG in the 10 years.

Policies and acts in review such as the Supported Accommodation Act as well as the Supported Housing Bill will have an inevitable impact on our operational model, and as such, LAWA has been advocating with others for changes/improvements in those to ensure that the impact on women survivors of gender-based violence is decreased and monitoring potential responses/adjustments in the services.

Structure, Governance and Management Governing Document

LAWA (the Charity) became a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) in 2023, maintaining the previous Charity Commission Number and its date of incorporation (13[th] of September 1988). The current Constitution is part of the update CIO registration process; it is dated on the 20[th ] of March 2023 and was last amended on the 26[th] of February 2024. The directors are the charity trustees for purposes of charity law and are known as the Board of Trustees.

Induction and training of new trustees

Interviews for potential trustees are held by the Chair of the Board of Trustees and the Director. A second interview takes place with other trustees. If considered a suitable candidate, an invitation by the Board will be made and an induction session will be scheduled with the Director. In addition, new members complete an online Safeguarding training for trustees.

Risk management and reserves policy

Similarly to previous years, the Trustees continue to be concerned about the long-term sustainability of the organisation. The short-term commissioning model from Tier 1 government agencies as well as the one contract scheme at the Local Authorities creates additional barriers to smaller by and for organisations such as LAWA.

Because of this, the Board has established a General Fund for unrestricted funds held by the organisation, which can be used as a contingency against emergency or unplanned expenditure and could cover 8-9 months of operational costs. The Board believes that by designating funds in this way, they can ensure that the long-term plans of the organisation can be realised, and the organisation will be able to fulfil its contractual responsibilities to its staff, funders, users and the wider community. This also takes into consideration further external elements such as the challenging environment towards migrant communities, increased barriers within the immigration system, reduced funds for higher demand services and an increased pressure on the voluntary sector.

At the end of the year the Board approved the following Designated Funds:

Freehold property accounts for the freehold property acquired by the organisation to run an emergency accommodation service.

provides to adequately maintain operations shall the organisation face a crisis and needs to cover for the lack of external funding. The cost is calculated for 6

months of rent costs that would allow to continue operations for a short period of time while further decisions are made.

Sustainability/Development Fund was created to enable the organisation to plan for the future and create a resource to assist the charity to develop a model that contributes to its long-term sustainability. During this year, the fund was used to purchase a property that will be used as a refuge accommodation. The remain funds are still set aside for the same purpose and further developments will be considered as part of the elaboration of the organisational strategy for the next 5 years.

Repairs and renewals funds provide resources to adequately maintain the furniture and repairs across LAWA’s working sites. The fund has increased given the acquisition of the new property and the need to allocate resources in case of emergency major repairs and maintenance.

Refuge/NRPF support fund will provide a resource to subsidise women assessed as NRPR, at complete destitution or with high levels of poverty to cover part of their day to day living costs.

The amount held on reserves on 31[st] March 2025 was £2,794,063 of which restricted reserves was £98,199 and unrestricted reserves amounted to £2,695,864: this includes the freehold property for £953,684; sustainability fund for £600,000.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Trustees of

Latin American Women’s Aid Refuge

We have audited the financial statements of Latin American Women’s Aid Refuge (the ’charity’) for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31 March 2025 and of its incoming resources and application of resources for the year then ended;
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011.

Basis of opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:

the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the trustees’ report; or
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or
• we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Responsibilities of Trustees

As explained more fully in the Trustees' Responsibilities Statement set out on page 9 to10, the Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect

a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

The Charity is required to comply with charity law and, based on our knowledge of its activities, we identified that the legal requirement to accurately account for restricted funds was of key significance.
We gained an understanding of how the charity complied with its legal and regulatory framework, including the requirement to properly account for restricted funds, through discussions with management and a review of the documented policies, procedures and controls.
The audit team, which is experienced in the audit of charities, considered the charity’s susceptibility to material misstatement and how fraud may occur. Our considerations included the risk of management override.
Our approach was to check that donations, grants and contract income, where applicable, was correctly restricted, was properly identified and separately accounted for and to ensure that only valid and appropriate expenditure was charged to restricted funds. This included reviewing journal adjustments and unusual transactions.
We have checked the completeness of rental income including housing benefits.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Use of the audit report

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken, so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report or for the opinions we have formed.

Latin American Women's Aid Refuge Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 March 2025

1 Accounting policies

a) Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note.

b) Public benefit entity

The charitable company meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.

c) Going concern

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

d) Income

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably.

Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

e) Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

f) Fund accounting

Restricted funds are funds which can only be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donors, or which have been raised for a particular purpose.

Unrestricted general funds are freely available for use in the furtherance of the objects of the charity and which have not been designated for specific purposes.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds set aside by the trustees for particular purposes.

g) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

Costs of raising funds relate to the costs incurred by the charitable company in inducing third parties to make voluntary contributions to it, as well as the cost of any activities with a fundraising purpose
Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of delivering services undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs.
Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. Redundancy costs are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period in which they arise.

Latin American Women's Aid Refuge Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 March 2025

1 Accounting policies (continued)

h) Allocation of support costs

Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. However, the cost of overall direction and administration of each activity, comprising the salary and overhead costs of the central function, is apportioned on the following basis which are an estimate of the amount attributable to each activity.

Emergency accomodation and support 68%
� Advice and information centre 32%

i) Operating leases

Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

j) Tangible fixed assets

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £1000. Depreciation costs are allocated to activities on the basis of the use of the related assets in those activities. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use.

The Freehold Building which is being used as a refuge property was purchased towards the end of the year 2024/25. Significant amount of building works involving capital expenditure are to be undertaken to make the property habitable as a refuge.

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. Freehold land is not depreciated. Building is accounted for on component cost basis with each component being depreciated over its estimated economic life as shown below:

�	Furniture and Equipment	10 years
�	Freehold Building Components
	Fabric of building	60 years
	Roof	25 years
	Windows	20 years

k) Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.

l) Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

m) Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount.

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Purposes of designated funds

Freehold property accounts for the freehold property acquired by the organisation to run an emergency accommodation service.

Office Premises provides to adequately maintain operations shall the organisation face a crisis and needs to cover for the lack of external funding. The cost is calculated for 6 months of rent costs that would allow to continue operations for a short period of time while further decisions are made.

Sustainability/Development Fund was created to enable the organisation to plan for the future and create a resource to assist the charity to develop a model that contributes to its long-term sustainability. During this year, the fund was used to purchase a property that will be used as a refuge accommodation. The remain funds are still set aside for the same purpose and further developments will be considered as part of the elaboration of the organisational strategy for the next 5 years.

Repairs and renewals funds provide resources to adequately maintain the furniture and repairs across LAWA’s working sites. The fund has increased given the acquisition of the new property and the need to allocate resources in case of emergency major repairs and maintenance .

Refuge/NRPF support fund will provide a resource to subsidise women assessed as NRPR, at complete destitution or with high levels of poverty to cover part of their day to day living costs.
