## **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. 

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

- Emotional and practical support, advocacy and information on options available, including medical, legal, educational, housing and financial. 

- 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. 

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** 

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.  Between them they have devoted 78 years service 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 provided shelter and support for 25 women and 32 children.  With the lifting of Covid restrictions we have been able to redecorate all of the communal areas, and with donations from our generous supporters have purchased garden furniture and outdoor play equipment for the children. 

The following case study illustrates support provided to survivors on their journey to recovery: 

## CASE STUDY 

When X arrived at the refuge she was in trauma, very withdrawn and anxious. X had suffered Physical, sexual and psychological abuse from her husband. Over the next few weeks X slept a lot, which is not unusual, her sleep pattern was very unstable.  X had been drinking heavily and using drugs as coping mechanisms due to her situation., She had neglected her health and her diet.  Her confidence and self-

esteem were very low.  Support workers had daily sessions with her, working through her individual support plan, talking through her experience, and helping her to overcome her anxieties about her future.  After a few weeks when she had settled in and felt safe, she became more confident and had started to get back into a routine of not eating at midnight, but having regular meals, and was up in the morning showered and much happier. 

X completed the Freedom Programme with Support Workers and found it very cathartic. They started a morning walk twice a week around the local park, which she loved.  Over time X became a mentor for women when they came into refuge, and helped with inhouse activities.  She slowly weened herself off her anti-depressants and decided she would like to do some voluntary work, so was helped to find a position in a local charity shop, where she met other people who introduced her to the local Church who help others in the community.  She really flourished with her new found freedom. 

X was rehoused locally, and after moving into her new home, she came back to the refuge as a mentor for a while,  showing other new women around the area and letting them know that no matter what they had been through, they would be supported by the Refuge staff throughout their journey, to heal and get through it. 

X is still in regular contact, she now has a full-time job in a residential home and is very happy. 

I would conclude by thanking all of our donors for their generous and continued support.   We are a local charity and the support of the community is very much appreciated.

## **WORKERS’ REPORT** 

Newark Women’s Aid has provided refuge accommodation and support services for women and children who have experienced domestic violence and abuse, since 1975.   We have supported 5,310 women and 6,256 children 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 and dangerous process.   Many 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 women with or without children in our refuge, and supported women through our Outreach Service.  We have also 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, which enables women to make informed decisions to determine their future,  and provides

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 administer the funding for the four Women’s Aid organisations who deliver domestic abuse services in the County; Midlands Women’s Aid, Newark Women’s Aid, Nottinghamshire Women’s Aid and Juno Women’s Aid. Quarterly meetings take place with the Nottinghamshire Safer Accommodation Group to share information and monitor service provision.  We received additional Flexi Funding, which is used to enable women to access refuge,  and to help with removal costs and essential items when they are rehoused.  This funding is invaluable and has helped many women and children. 

It has been another busy year, however, due to the shortage of move on permanent housing countrywide, families are resident in refuge for a longer period of time.  The volume of calls for advice and support remained very high. 

Our Children’s Worker supports. 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.   She provides 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. 

During the summer the families had outings to animal farms, the seaside, swimming and other activities. 

We celebrated birthdays, Christmas, Eid, Halloween and bonfire night, all thanks to the hard work and generosity of our fundraisers. 

During the past year our Outreach Worker has supported 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 received 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.  Once again 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.

## **TREASURER’S REPORT** 

The refuge has six family rooms and a small bedroom for a single woman or young person of a large family.  During the 2022/23 financial year, this room generated income for 49 additional weeks. Hence, there was a potential of 361 weeks of occupancy during this financial year (2021/22: 326 weeks).  However, occupancy rates decreased from 97.9% to 93.9%. 

Room rates and service charges were increased overall by 2.07% (2021/22: 0.42%) and there was a decrease in the rent receivable by the refuge from £78,626 in 2021/22 to £77,478 in 2022/23. The number of bad debts in 2021/22, amounting to £5,710 decreased in 2022/23 to £4,964.  These continued to occur due to several factors: women who had no recourse to public funds; women making new claims for 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 £24,603 (2021/22: £66,280).  The overall profit for 2022/23, including restricted funds, was £23,430 (2021/22: £67,453). Other income decreased during the year, with donations decreasing by £10,117. 

The overall Balance Sheet total has increased by £23,430, which is due to the profit referred to above.  Cash reserves have increased by £25,097 over the course of the year (from £350,771 at 31[st] March 2022 to £375,868 at 31[st] March 2023). 

In line with previous years, the Redundancy Reserve has been amended to reflect the current position, with an increase of £13,217. 

Pension contributions have reduced in the year from £6,888 in 2021/22 to £6,120 in 2022/23. 

As always, the Refuge remains very heavily dependent on grant support of which there was a total of £141,621 received in 2022/23 (£137,680 received in 2021/22) from the DLUHC

In September 2022 Refuge Accommodation Services were put out to tender by Notts. County Council. We submitted our bid, and I am very pleased to say that we were successful, so from April 2023 we have a three year contract with NCC to continue to provide refuge accommodation and support services for women and children who have been made homeless due to domestic abuse.   This is the first time in our 48 year history that we have had secure funding for longer than one year.
