Achievements and Pertormance
Main Achievements
The charity was established through the efforts of Mr. Tim Martin and Mrs. Hannah Arnold and in collaboration with
Pregnancy Centres Network which operates throughout the United Kingdom. We are deeply Indebted to Tini and Hannah
for their compassion and prolonged efforts to make this charity a reality. The Private Limited Company was registered with
Companies House on 22nd April 2021 and then registered with the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland on 2 1st
September 2021.
Before the charity could become active there was a requirement for the potential practitioners to undergo quite demanding
instruction in order to deliver the services offered in a professional manner. Although the Initial contacts with tlie leaders of
the Pregnancy Centres Network had been in person, the completion of the training was carried out U51ng an online pSatform.
The charity officially launched in September 2022 with a well attended gathering held in Hope Church, Hillsborough.
The charity has two centres. one in Belfast and one in Enniskillen. Each centre has a 'Centre Leader. and a number of
practitioners, each contactable by phone or email. Other practitioners are located in different areas of the province and
these would be available to work with clients locally although their activities would be overseen by either of the centre
leader5.

For The Year Ended 30 April 2023
Main Achievements continued
PCC made the decision to invest in a professionally developed website and cornmissioned MCC Computers Ltd to produce
the site. The Trustees of PCC contributed Ideas to the project and are more than happy with the result, especially the logo
that wa5 created.
Obtaining insurance posed a challenge initially but we are grateful to TL Dallas for providing the necessary cover.
As of present PCC does not have any premises of its own so is dependent upon the goodwill of churches or other entities in
different areas to allow the use of their premises as required. We have secured ègreements with churches in Belfast and
Enniskillen for this purpose.
In February 2023 Tim Martin officially resigned as a Director of the charity as he had taken on the role of assisting the
establishment of a new church congregation. We very much appreciate the time and effort Tim had dedicated to Pregnancy
Choices Centre and he continues to be a valuable support to the work.
In March we received two generous donations toward the work. A Pregnancy Centre in Nottinghatn was closing and gifted
almost £500 to PCC on 14th. 10 days later we received the very kind donation of almost £3,300 from Evangelical Alliance
and Both Lives Matter.
Also in March we had our first contact from a potential client. This was responded to by a practitioner in Belfast who carried
out the session over the phone. The client later responded vvith text message stating her appreciation and informing the
practitioner thèt She had had a good discussion with her husband and was settled a5 to her plans. It Is not our policy or
procedure to ask clients to state the plans that they have decidecj upon.
Our practitioner is a qualified and experienced counsellor who had undergone training in relation to dealing with adults at
risk of harm.
