Trustees Re
ort for the Year Ended 31 March 2023
Introduction
The trustees, who are also dirertors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their
annual report and unaudited financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2023.
Charitable objectives and activitles
Flourish Nl is dedicated to the support of people whose lives have been impacted by modern slavery or other
forms of exploitation, including forced labour.
The charities aim is that every individual affected by human trafficking is SUPPOrted towards a brighter future.
Public Beneflt
In setting the charity objectives and planning activities for the year, the trustees have carefully considered the
Charity Commission for Northern Ireland's guidance on public benefit to ensure that the activities have helped
to achieve the charity's purposes and provide a benefit to the beneficiaries and the educating the wider public
on modern slavery and human trafficking.
Revlew of Activitles & Performan
Flourish Nl provides long term, tailored, client centred support for survivors of modern slavery.
Our work is focused on reducing vulnerability to re-exploitation by supporting survivors to empower
themselves to be able to move on to lead safe, independent and resilient lives.
Our core work focuses on 3 areas:
l. Casework and advocacy;
2. Community activities and 5kills-based courses,. and
3. Therapeutic interventions.
Casework & Advocac
As with the previous financial year. it has been observed that the cornplexity of the work is increasing as staff
are dealing with areas requiring high levels of skill and professionalism. This is predominantly linked to
increased immigration challenges and the associated changing legislative environment and difficulties in
finding appropriate housing. For those the charity supports we have witnessed these challenges having
negative impacts upon mental health.
The programme of support offered by Flourish is based upon a strengths-based model using a trauma
informed approach. Casework is intensive one to one support which aims to provide pathways to practical
stability, navigating systems within the UK, understanding rights and setting both short-and-long term goals,
working towards independence for survivors.
This year has been challenging for caseworkers as it became clear that many services that clients were entitled
to were facing increasing demand, so accessing these services has become more difficult. This has increased
caseworkers support time required which has inevitably put more pressures on the charity.
We have also seen a sharp increase in referrals which has doubled over the last 3 years.

The charity has continued throughout this financial year to address the gap in support for individuals who are
waiting to enter the statutory systemlpre-NRMI. While the mission of Flourish is to provide long term recovery
and support for survivors. the charity recognised the need for individuals to be able to access specialist care
while waiting to enter the NRM.
As the landscape of trafficking within Northern Ireland continues to change. the trustees and management
continue to monitor these trends and adapt to meet the needs in the evolving landscape.
Other Poli
Activities
Flourish Nl is part of both local and national networks. Within Northern Ireland. it is a member of the Belfast
City Council Migrant Forum and the Department of Justice Engagement Group on Modern Slavery. As part of
the latter, the charity can highlight policy issues and operational difficulties at a governmental level.
Nationally the charity is a member of the Human Trafficking Foundation and also the Anti-Trafficking
Monitoring Group I'ATMG']. which is a small coalition of anti-trafficking charities influencing policy at a
national level.
Communit
activities
As a charity we have witnessed the immense benefits to survivors of community activities and we continue to
prioritise ways for survivors to spend time together to build confidence. improve general wellbeing and reduce
isolation.
A weekly drop-in service remains a focal point to providing a safe place for survivors to meet and become
involved with various activities such as jewellery makin& calligraphy, floral workshops, exercise and various
crafts.
A number of survivor led activities were hosted during the year giving clients the opportunity to teach a skill to
others. This was both an empowering experience for the client teaching and for those participating. The
charity will continue to encourage clients to use their skills in a safe supportive environment.
Courses have the additional benefits of providing an opportunity to learn new skills. Some examples of courses
that were hosted during the year were beginners sewing classes, an employability course, ESOL English course,
feel good with food course, a beginners computer class, and a well-being and resilience course.
The charity also facilitated a nail technician course for a group of survivors wanting to enter the workforce and
learn a new skill. The course was fully accredited and those attending became certified nail technicians.
Flourish Nl is keen to build upon its artivities and course5 a5 the benefits to those attending have been clear.
Thera
eutic activities
Whilst counselling continues to be identified as a need. currently this is provided through referrals to third
party services/organisations. As with all services, demand is high and clients can often have long waiting times
before being able to avail of much needed mental health support.
It is still the desire within the charity to provide counselling as part of the services it offers.
For the full financial year, the charity provided weekly art psychotherapy. The art therapy group at Flourish
airns to provide a trauma-informed, supportive and consistent space for clients to come and experience the

FLOURISH NI LIMITED

Page 3
benefits of the creative process. The space is held by an art therapist and aims to be inclusive and
accommodate clients at different stages of their journey. The art therapy group can be meaningful for clients
on multiple levels.
Sewn b Flourish
Flourish Nl runs a workshop making Irish linen homeware pleces. The principle behind thi5 15 two-fold,. to
provide a creative outlet for survivors to upskill and to learn employability skills where individuals face barriers
to employment. It is also to provide a sustainable income stre3m for the charity in the future.
The trustees are continuing to monitor the potential for income generated from this source, and will review
the legal structure and consider the set-up of a social enterprise if deemed appropriate.
Fundraisin
and Partnershi
Fundraising remains a key source of income for the charity, whether those events that are facilitated by the
charity or individuals/groups engaging in activities to fundraise on behalf of the charity.
Events that were held during this year were teams/individuals involved in running events, sales of Flourish
cookbook, a quiz evening and an afternoon tea.
The charity is also incredibly grateful to partner with some social enterprises and businesses.
Refuge Chocolate made donations to the charity of £8,500 during this financial year.
Klndred of Ireland donate IO% of their profits to the charity each year and EKO make a donation from each
backpack that is sold.

enable the charity to continue in operation for this time and meet the operational costs of a core team. This is
regularly reviewed by the Trustees and has been closely monitored during the ongoing cost of living pressures.
which continue to change the landscape of fundraising.
At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have considered both the level of reserves held
and forecasted income anticipated. concluding that there is a reasonable expectation that adequate resources
are held to bolster any uncertainties that may arise and to continue in operation for the foreseeable future.
