AMADUDU WOMEN'S REFUGE
TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025
The trustees are pleased to present their annual report for the year ended 31st March 2025.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's trust deed, the
Charities Act 2011 and 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 published (FRS 102)
(effective 1st January 2019).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Amadudu was set up to address racism and barriers faced by Black and Racial Minority
women and children in mainstream services and wider society. Its objective is to work for the
promotion of any charitable purposes for the benefit of women and children experiencing
domestic violence, by the advancement of education, the protection of health and the relief of
poverty, sickness and distress.
Public Benefit Statement
In considering the objectives and activities, the Trustees have considered Charity Commission
guidance on Public Benefit to ensure that the charity is meeting its Public Benefit requirements.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
As a specialist Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) specialist refuge provider. We provide
temporary accommodation for women and children from diverse communities. Amadudu
services meet the individual and complex needs of women from BME backgrounds by
providing holistic services including emotional support, casework including resettlement after
stay at refuge, support with immigration issues, welfare benefits, debts, legal/court advocacy
support, counselling. The refuge fundraises and can add value to the work with families, which
in the last year included successfully delivery of 232 activities for women and children including
trauma reducing therapies, arts project, cooking projects, money management, confidence
building, coaching, day trips, out of school holiday playschemes.
Amadudu continue to work closely at strategic level locally and nationally, to challenge barriers
to women receiving specialist services, to address issues that find women and children
disproportionately impacted by wider policies and practices. To ensure women's voices are
heard. Last year we attended and contributed to discussions at Women's Aid Federation
conference, ensured women's voices were heard at Women's Day Million Women March event
in London, worked in partnership and spoke at a multi-agency Vigil in Merseyside in memory of
women's lives lost to Domestic Abuse as part of the Cities 16 days of Domestic Abuse
activism. Women at refuge attended an activity that expressed their comparative views on life
after fleeing abuse, producing a powerful and impactful visual.
Satisfaction feedback from service users has been outstanding and informative, information we
use to evidence need for future activities.
The Government changes and cost of living increases continued to impact on families we
provide services to, including staff and volunteers. We have been able to support families with
essential goods, travel costs, food, winter clothes, and move on cost support. Funding outside
our core grant enabled us to support some women with no recourse to public funds, pending
immigration status outcomes with essentials and legal support.
Our out of school grants have enabled food resources to be provided for families to aid costs
as many families have more than 3 children per family.

AMADUDU WOMEN'S REFUGE
TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025
We have been able to help our staff and volunteers also with uplifts additional to basic salary
costs to help with cost-of-living increases. This has enabled consistency and retention of
staffing, showing the organisation understand the financial pressures of our staff too.
Partnership working and Influencing policy and practice.
This year our leadership roles have continued to be involved in Strategic partnerships and
consultation with local authority/police crime commissioners' office, influencing/shaping future
funding, participating in wider research project with Oak project, and Imkaan, working to end
violence against Women and Girls.
Training
Our staff/ Board members continue to undertake training, and new staff training as part of their
induction into employment. This ensures are staff are aware, knowledgeable, and able to apply
skills in their areas of service delivery and governance.
Quality Services
This year we undertook a Quality Assurance Assessment and review from our core Local
Authority. The trustees commend the leadership and supporting staff team who prepared for
the Assessment, as the outcome was positive and fully compliant. A couple of areas that
resulted in 'recommendations' applied quickly and accepted within two weeks of receiving the
report.
An assessment had not been undertaken since prior to Covid and was welcomed by the
organisation. We continue to have a good relationship with our contract funder and with our
landlord Sanctuary Housing in ensuring the refuge building continues to be fit for purpose.
We thank our service users for their bravery and sharing their experiences with us to ensure
we can validate the services we provide and to ensure we continue to ensure we hear their
VoIces

prudent where possible with our budget expenditure, and new income through grants and new
contract/partner opportunities for various projects which would also contribute to overall
running cost overheads
PLANS FOR THE FUTURE
Over last year and a half we were fortunate to receive professional consultancy support via
Lloyds Bank Foundation as part of our grant funding. This enabled the Board and team to
review our aims and objectives for our Business plan, agree our short to medium term priorities
and funding needs, and review our risk plan. Next year we plan to build on this to develop our
longer-term plans.
Pilot project - dispersed safe houses 2024-25 -Last year we secured funding to pilot dispersed
fourth quarter of the year. We are now planning alternative sources of accommodation with
social housing providers to increase bedspaces and continue to deliver dispersed safe houses.
Last year we achieved our goals for the year, however some funding providers could only
commit for a year due to budget constraints. We have prioritised applying for larger 3-5 year
grants next year, to continue to meet gaps in funding to support families, staff, upgrade IT
equipment for offices, staff training, backfill for leadership team to have capacity to implement
Business plan developments, resources for children and refuge, continue to support women
with no recourse to public funds, upgrade website, continue Admin and weekend staff costs,
support our staff mental wellbeing, secure funding for a project to document and celebrate
Amadudu's 35th Anniversary for 2026, continue to support families move on costs and general
cost of living pressures.
As an all women BME organisation we have lived experiences of Domestic Abuse which
provide us with the passion and commitment to help other women through their healing
journey, and life after refuge. I want to thank all our Stakeholders and Funders who have
committed to helping us deliver services that provide many positive outcomes for women and
children, and who value the work Amadudu does, we appreciate your support. We also
recognise the smaller groups that donate and raise funds throughout the year and those who
make donations on our website, all contributions are greatly appreciated.
Finally thank you to our Board of Trustees who work alongside our leadership team, to provide
strategic and operational direction to ensure we are compliant and continue to deliver quality
services.
We thank the many services who continue to offer additional support to families at Amadudu,
and key workers in organisations we have worked with such as Savera, Imkaan, Oak project,
YPAS, Liverpool Domestic Abuse Service, and many community groups who provide additional
services.

Respective responsibilities
of trustees and examiner
Basis of independent
examiner's report
Independent examiner's
statement
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31st
March 2025 which are set out on pages 6 to 21.
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the
accounts. They consider that the audit is not required this year
under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and
that an Independent Examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
• examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act,
• to follow procedures laid down in the general Directions
given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b)
of the Charities Act, and
• to state whether particular matters have come to my
attention.
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general
Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination
includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and
a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also
includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the
accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning
any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all
the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently
no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and
fair" view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the
statement below.
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my
attention:
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any
material respect the requirements
• to keep accounting records in accordance with section
130 of the Charities Act; and
• to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting
records and comply with the accounting requirements of
the Charities Act
have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to
enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial
Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland published
(FRS102) as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1st January 2019) and

Going concern
At the time of approving the accounts, the Trustees have plans in place to increase the
required level of unrestricted reserves to continue in operational existence for the
foreseeable future. Thus, the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of
accounting in preparing the accounts.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are the charity's free reserves available for the trustees to apply in
accordance with the charity's objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific restrictive conditions imposed by the donor. All
restricted funds are accounted for as restricted income and expenditure for the purposes is
charged to the fund.
Income recognition
All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, there is sufficient
certainty of receipt and so it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount of
income receivable can be measured reliably.
Donations and legacies comprise of donations and general grants which are recognised in
the accounts when received, with the exception of known legacies which are accounted for
when their receipt is certain.
Income from charitable activities is recognised on an accrual's basis except for grants
receivable, which are recognised on the date on which their unconditional payment is
confirmed by the donor.
Income from other trading activities relates to fundraising events and is recognised when the
amount is certain.
Expenditure recognition
Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing
the charitable company to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required,
and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

within one year are not amortised.
