DE14 3RD Newark Women’s Aid is proud to be part of the Women’s Aid Federation of England, working together until all women are free from domestic violence 3 ## **WHAT IS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE?** Domestic violence is about power and control, how one person uses an intimate relationship to control their partner, former partner or family member. Domestic violence is not any single behavior but rather a pattern of many physical, emotional, sexual, psychological or economic behaviors. These coercive behaviors are designed to manipulate, control and dominate the partner to achieve compliance and dependence. Domestic violence occurs across all of society, regardless of age, gender, race, ethnic or religious group, class, disability, sexuality, ability, lifestyle and geography. It can also occur in a range of relationships including heterosexual, LGBTQ. and the extended family. It can include ‘honour-based’ violence, female genital mutilation and forced marriage. The figures show, however, that the majority of domestic violence is experienced by women and children and perpetrated by men. Many women do not recognise that they are experiencing domestic violence which can take many forms and may include the following behavior(s) - Physical abuse/ threats of violence - Verbal attacks - Being prevented from leaving the house - Deliberate destruction of personal possessions - Being controlled or prevented from seeing friends of family - Constantly being checked up on or followed - Financial constraints - Being prevented from starting or continuing with work or studies - • Being prevented from accessing healthcare Whatever form it takes, domestic violence is rarely a one-off incident, it tends to increase in severity over time and continue beyond the ending of the relationship ## **AIMS AND OBJECTIVES** Newark Women’s Aid aims and objectives are to ensure women and children feel safe, protected and supported emotionally, enabling them to discuss issues relating to their experiences of domestic abuse freely and without judgement; to empower women and children by ensuring that they are provided with information on options available, and access to those options; to support women in whatever decisions they make and provide access to other specialist services. To meet these objectives we provide the following specialist domestic violence services throughout Newark & Sherwood DC. - A Refuge where women and their children who have been made homeless due to any form of domestic violence or abuse can enjoy temporary rest and protection from attack or persecution. - Emotional and practical support, advocacy and information on options available, including medical, legal, educational, housing and financial. Newark Women’s Aid is proud to be part of the Women’s Aid Federation of England, working together until all women are free from domestic violence 4 - Assistance in obtaining education and play facilities for children. - Move-on and resettlement support – ongoing support and advocacy for women after they have left the Refuge. - A Women’s Community Outreach Service providing one-to-one support, information and advocacy for women who have experienced or are living with domestic violence and abuse from a current or former partner. - Information to Agencies and individuals to raise awareness and contribute to a better understanding of the needs of women, children and young people who have experienced domestic abuse. ## **EQUALITY & DIVERSITY STATEMENT** Newark Women's Aid (NWA) provides temporary accommodation, support and advocacy to women and children fleeing domestic abuse and supports their long-term future needs. This means challenging the abuse that women and children experience and recognising that violence against women is a result of their disadvantaged social and economic position in society. NWA is committed to the principles of equality and diversity in all its practices. NWA is working towards the elimination of all types of abuse against women, children and young people. We are also working towards the elimination of all other forms of sexism and all forms of racism, anti-Semitism, heterosexism, class oppression, mental health oppression, and discrimination against people of different ages, people with a disability, and people responsible for children. We are trying within our organisation to actively promote equality of opportunity and good relations between women and children of different racial, ethnic and cultural groups, classes, ages, sexual orientation and ability/disability. We declare, therefore, that we will introduce measures that will challenge all direct or indirect discrimination in our employment practices and in our management and provision of services, and will work to achieve these ends. We intend to ensure that equal opportunities become a reality in practice and not simply a paper commitment. We will seek to implement a programme of positive action to make NWA's Equality & Diversity Policy fully effective by ensuring that no NWA member, job applicant, employee, student or volunteer, user of the service, or members and agencies of other Women's Aid groups that we work with, receive less favourable treatment on the grounds of race, colour, class, gender, gender reassignment, nationality, ethnic or national origin, religion, marital status, civil partnership, sexual orientation, mental health history, disability, age, union activity, or responsibility for children. ## **CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS STATEMENT** Newark Women's Aid, (NWA) provides temporary accommodation, support and advocacy in Refuge for women and children who have been made homeless because of domestic violence. A confidential women’s outreach support service for women whose lives have been affected by domestic violence and abuse. This often involves challenging the abuse that women and children experience, and recognising that violence against women is the result of their disadvantaged social and economic position in society. NWA has a Customer Care & Complaints Policy which includes: Customer Care, Service User Involvement, Confidentiality, Training, Equal Opportunities, Health & Safety and Complaints Procedure. Newark Women’s Aid is proud to be part of the Women’s Aid Federation of England, working together until all women are free from domestic violence 5 The Policy is operated to ensure that women and children have a safe and positive experience during their stay. By promoting this Policy women and children are encouraged to feel part of and involved in the running of the Refuge. NWA is committed to reviewing its own policies, procedures and practice and to willingly take part in and co-operate with external reviews and monitoring. Our Customer Care Policy also includes a Complaints Procedure and all women are given a copy of this in their Welcome Pack on arrival. NWA welcomes the philosophy that complaints should be viewed in a positive light enabling the organisation to improve its practice, service and resources. NWA acknowledges that residence in a Refuge is a unique experience for women and children, and as such any complaint, suggestion or comments from women or children will be taken seriously and positively acted upon. ## **CHAIR’S REPORT** It is with great sadness I have to inform you that Andrew Carr, our Chair since 2012, passed away in August 2021. He will be missed by us all. I speak for the Trustees and residents in expressing our sincere thanks to Marlene and her team for all their hard work during the past twelve months, particularly dealing with additional difficulties experienced since the outbreak of the Covid-19 Pandemic. Between them they have devoted over 70 years to our Charity and we can count ourselves very fortunate indeed to have such a dedicated and experienced team. It has been another very busy year in the Refuge where we have sheltered and supported 25 women and 32 children. We have been able to catch up with essential maintenance now that Covid restrictions have been lifted. I am very pleased to announce that in January 2022, Marlene, the Refuge Manager was awarded a B.E.M. for her untiring work supporting victims of domestic violence for over 40 years. Our congratulations to Marlene, we are all very proud that her dedication has been officially recognized. The following case study illustrates some of the support provided to survivors on their journey to recovery: _A young Polish woman J had to flee her home with her two young children aged 10 months and 4 years. J self-referred to Refuge, she was desperate to leave her abusive husband. She had been married for eight years and she just couldn't take any more abuse. Her husband was emotionally and financially controlling and physically and verbally abusive. Together with support staff a plan was made for her to get to the refuge safely. She knew she would only be able to bring what she could put in a pushchair, but she was assured that we would be able to help with clothing, toiletries etc. when she arrived. J had to give up her job when she came into refuge, which she didn't really want to do, but she had no choice. She had very little money as her husband had controlled her income. We were able to help her with vouchers for food, clothing and donations from the Food Bank until her benefit was in_ Newark Women’s Aid is proud to be part of the Women’s Aid Federation of England, working together until all women are free from domestic violence 6 _place. We supported J to make a claim for benefits. We supported her to register with a local GP and Health Visitor._ _J found it hard to settle in the refuge at first, she was exhausted, worried about their future and there were lots of tears, she needed intensive emotional support. J said she felt like a failure, she had lost all her confidence, she felt guilty about not leaving the perpetrator sooner and worried how it would affect her children. She said she had been depressed for a long time. Her daughter was very clingy and wouldn't leave her side. Her husband was very strict, and although she was only 4 years old he would shout at their daughter for the slightest thing. The Child Support Worker worked with J and her daughter together, as at first she wouldn't leave her mummy, but when she realised she wasn't going to be shouted at for making a noise, she loved the sessions and also started playing with the other children. This also helped J to realise that she had made the right decision. Her daughter was enrolled into school, which she really enjoyed. Her husband applied for contact of the children and J was supported through the legal process. He was awarded supervised contact, but after putting her through the process, he didn't follow it through and never turned up for any of the arranged meetings._ _Initially J had daily support sessions, she was very low and said she felt broken, but with reassurance and support from her Support Worker she began to feel more confident. Together they drew up structured plans to help improve her self-esteem, healthy eating plan, as she really wanted to lose weight, and a daily exercise plan. Every morning after dropping her daughter off at school her support worker would walk with her, showing her the routes around parks etc. which she really enjoyed, she loved it so much that she ended up walking 5k. Her confidence improved and she started to interact with the other families, so much so, that she encouraged them to join her on her morning walks, which they did, and join in the healthy eating programme which was really successful, as they planned their meals and ate together._ _J was with us for eleven months, she really started to get her life back and felt in control of it, and her confidence and health improved. She became a great support to the other women, and reassurance to families when they were admitted to refuge. We had helped J with her housing application and bids for move-on properties. We were able to help her purchase all new white goods, thanks to a recent successful grant application, and helped her furnish the house from donations and the furniture project. J loves her new home, she feels safe and happy where she is and so are the children. J couldn't believe how so much had happened in less than a year, and how much better she felt. J still keeps in touch with us, letting us know how she is getting on. J said when she was leaving,_ _“the refuge saved my life. I had to move to another county to be far enough away from my violent husband to feel safe with my children. There was so much to do and to face and we have been helped every step of the way. I can never thank you enough for all the support I received. I am so much happier and so are my children. We have settled in the area and made a new life for ourselves. Thank you all so much.”_ I would like to conclude by thanking everyone for all donations made to the refuge during the past year. We are a local charity and the support of the community is very much appreciated. Beverley Mackinder Chair of the Board of Trustees Newark Women’s Aid is proud to be part of the Women’s Aid Federation of England, working together until all women are free from domestic violence 7 **WORKERS’ REPORT** Newark Women’s Aid has provided refuge accommodation and support services for women and children who have experienced domestic violence, since 1975. We have supported 5240 women and 6,200 children during this time, in Refuge and through our Women’s Outreach Service, which clearly demonstrates the continued need for our specialist support. We never lose sight of the fact that however abusive a relationship may be, the prospect of leaving an abusive partner can feel as daunting as the prospect of staying. It takes courage for a woman to seek help; the process can be painful and distressing. Breaking free from an abusive relationship can be a lengthy process. Most women try to seek help or leave the perpetrator a number of times before they finally make the break. During the past year we have provided safe accommodation and support for 25 women and 32 children in refuge, 52 women through our Outreach Service, and provided telephone advice and support to numerous women and agencies. We have supported women with additional complex needs including mental health, alcohol and drug misuse, which has reinforced the importance of close partnership working with other specialist agencies to ensure appropriate levels of support for our clients. We have worked closely with Children’s Services to support children at risk and in need. Our support workers understand the complex feelings and anxieties a woman experiences when she first comes into refuge, however staying in Refuge can be a very positive experience for many women, children and young people, enabling them to recover from their traumatic experience; take stock of their lives and feel safe in the knowledge that there are support workers on hand to provide emotional support, enabling women to make informed decisions to determine their future, information and assistance regarding; claiming welfare benefits, legal, issues, housing and education options, support and safety planning. Refuge provides a lot more than just safe accommodation; it also offers one to one support aimed at informing and supporting women, and facilitating access to other specialist services. The huge burden of having to find out about which services are available, where those services are, who to speak to, making appointments and travelling from one to the other, often with young children, at possibly the most traumatic time of her life, is much less stressful with the support we provide, as the help can be accessed under one roof. For the past year we have received grant funding from the DLUHC. The County Council administered the funding for the four Women’s Aid organisations who deliver the services in the County; Midlands Women’s Aid, Newark Women’s Aid, Nottinghamshire Women’s Aid and Juno Women’s Aid. We have quarterly meetings with the Nottinghamshire Safer Accommodation Group to share information and monitor service provision. We moved from government Covid restrictions to ‘personal responsibility’, but with constant reminders that the virus has not ‘gone away’ remain vigilant with processes in place to maintain high standards of hygiene and contingency plans to deal with individual cases or an outbreak. It has been another busy year, where, due to the shortage of ‘move on’ housing countrywide, families are resident in refuge for a longer period of time. The volume of calls for advice and support remained very high. Newark Women’s Aid is proud to be part of the Women’s Aid Federation of England, working together until all women are free from domestic violence 8 The Children’s Support Worker helps children and young people to settle into Refuge, she creates an inviting, colourful and interesting environment in the playroom, which all the children can enjoy and where they can feel supported, and safe. She works with children both individually and in groups providing stimulating play opportunities which encourage the children to develop and express themselves. One to one support, which is aimed at increasing confidence, improving the level of understanding of their situation, and ensuring their needs are met. Stay and Play sessions where mothers are involved in the activities. Sessions have included, art, crafts, reading, dancing, music, baking, gardening and sand and water play. We continued to celebrate birthdays, Christmas, Eid, Halloween and bonfire night, all thanks to the hard work and dedication of our fundraisers. During the past year our Outreach Worker has supported 52 women who have accessed our Community Outreach Service, which provides support, advocacy and information to women who live in the Newark & Sherwood area who are experiencing domestic abuse, or have left an abusive partner. The service ensures that women can access emotional support to talk in confidence about the impact domestic violence has had on their life, their fears and concerns, and address any related issues including housing options, welfare benefits, legal options, safety planning, home security, budgeting, relationship breakdown, further education, training and employment, and access to refuge and other agencies. Despite current countrywide financial difficulties we continued to receive tremendous support from our local community, businesses and agencies who have continued to support us both financially and ‘in kind’. We have also received private donations, for which we are most grateful. Members of the local community have donated clothing, household goods, harvest produce, and much, much more, which has benefitted all of the women and children in the refuge and families supported through our outreach service. Our sincere thanks go to everyone who has supported our charity during the past year. Your kindness and support is invaluable. All the families in refuge had a really lovely Christmas. Our generous donors provided beautiful gifts for each child and adult. Turkeys and all the trimmings were donated for Christmas dinner, as well as loads of goodies, sweets and puddings. There were also Christmas dinners and gifts for families supported through our outreach service. Feedback from the women we have supported has been really positive. They said that they had been helped by the support and services they and their children had received. They felt safe, cared for and looked after by staff. They felt the support of Newark Women’s Aid in protecting and supporting them and their children; from safety planning and support to leave a violent partner, to practical assistance with benefits, housing applications, registering with health services, getting children in to schools etc; to much needed emotional support, resettlement in the community and building skills for their future, really did help them to rebuild their lives. Thanks go to all of our Trustees for their advice, encouragement and continued support. ## **Newark Women’s Aid Support Team** Newark Women’s Aid is proud to be part of the Women’s Aid Federation of England, working together until all women are free from domestic violence 9 **TREASURER’S REPORT** The Refuge has six family bedrooms and a small bedroom which is used to accommodate a single woman/plus baby or a young person of a large family. During the 2021/22 financial year, this room generated income for 14 additional weeks. Hence, there was a potential of 326 weeks of occupancy during this financial year (2020/21: 321 weeks). Occupancy rates increased from 85.9% to 97.9% as a result of having a period in the previous year where rooms were not fit to be let due to the requirement for property repairs and also the national COVID-19 lockdowns. Room rates and service charges were increased overall by 0.42% (2020/21: 1.16%) and there was an increase in the rent receivable by the refuge from £59,025 in 2020/21 to £78,626 in 2021/22. The number of bad debts in 2020/21, amounting to £9,507 decreased in 2021/22 to £5,710. These continued to occur due to several factors: women who had no recourse to public funds; women changing over to Universal Credit which left most of them owing a month’s rent; a number of short term stays where no payment was received and women leaving owing rent or not providing necessary documentation to enable Housing Benefit claims to be processed. There is a net profit for the year on the unrestricted funds (as shown on page 3 of the financial statements) of £66,280 (2020/21: £32,416). The overall profit for 2021/22, including restricted funds, was £67,453 (2020/21: £32,416). Other income increased during the year, with donations increasing by £15,104. The financial position has improved further from that shown at 31[st] March 2021. The overall Balance Sheet total has increased by £67,453, which is due to the profit referred to above. Cash reserves have increased by £71,845 over the course of the year (from £278,926 at 31[st] March 2021 to £350,771 at 31[st] March 2022). In line with previous years, the Redundancy Reserve has been amended to reflect the current position, with an increase of £4,279. Pension contributions have reduced in the year from £8,424 in 2020/21 to £6,888 in 2021/22 which is largely in line with the reduction in salaries. Payroll costs also reduced during the year where previously increased due to further support, rooms and respite being made available to women during the COVID-19 pandemic where instances of domestic violence increased. In addition, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, additional costs were incurred in 2020/21 on cleaning and additional domestic equipment to ensure that both staff and residents remained safe throughout the pandemic and to reduce the risk of infection across the shelter. As always, the Refuge remains very heavily dependent on grant support of which there was a total of £137,680 received in 2021/22 (£158,878 received in 2020/21) from the DLUHC. ## **Kate Hayes Treasurer** Newark Women’s Aid is proud to be part of the Women’s Aid Federation of England, working together until all women are free from domestic violence 10 ## **A MESSAGE OF THANKS TO ALL OUR WONDERFUL DONORS** We acknowledge with grateful thanks, everyone who has made a donation either in cash or ‘in kind’, in support of our Charity during the financial year ending 31[st] March 2022.

We can never thank you enough, your help and support for all our families is invaluable. Every donation however large or small means so much. We couldn’t have done it without you!
