The Waiting List for women to access face to face support remains in place but we will check in with women on a regular basis until we can offer an appointment. COUNSELLING SERVICE In April 2023 we entered a partnership with Therapy Train to offer placements for their students studying for a Professional Diploma in Person-centred Counselling. During that first year we had 4 students who delivered 244 hours of support to 21 women, with some exceptional outcomes. From April 24 - March 25, 11 women attended 58 se55ions, the figures were lower due to placements coming to an end once students became qualified. We are actsvely seeking new students and looking for funding streams so that we can offer paid hours.

The Refuge service provides emergency accommodation for women and families fleeing domestic abuse. Women can be referred frorn anywhere in the UK, provided they have recourse to public funds.

Clackmannanshire Women's Aid SCIO Page 5. Trustees, Annual Report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2025 ACHIEVEMENTS & PERFORMANCE {continued) School holiday programmes.. In summer 2024. we secured £3000 as winners Irom the Tesco blue token scheme which funded our summeractlvities. We had the usual varied programme of events on, inclLtdlng safari park, bowling, soft play, crary golf, thè Kelpies and farm visit. The programmè was well attended and feedback positive. Christmas 2024, we received a donation of pa55es from the M8cRobert Centre for their pantomime, and we were able to take a group of 10 young people. A5 the panto wa513ter in the evening and passes were limited, we had permission to collert the younger children from school early, and we took them for lunch and to the cinema to see a Christmas movie. Challenges.. One of the key Challenges we encountered is navigating conversations around healthy relationships in a social climate that often promotes and normalises unhealthy behaviours, particularly through online content and peer tulture. Many of the young people we work with are highly influenced by what they see on platforms like TikTok, Instagram and Snapchat. This exposes young people to harmful narratives around gender roles. relationships, consent, and respect. Influencers, viral trend5. and online "advice" often glamorise controlling behaviour, toxic masculinity, or reinforce unrealistic and sometime5 dangerous ideas about love, loyalty, and self-worth. We have found it necessary to continually adapt our materials and session plans to reflect current online trends or viral content that young people are discussing. Staying relèvant ts essential to keep engagement high and ensure that our work continues to resonate.

CYP PREVENTION GROUPWORK Since February 2024, the prevention worker ha5 delivered 156 PSÉ classes in three secondary schools and 144 group work sessions in ftsur primary schools. As a resLIt, we were able to reach 2844 young people. Through these groups, we have focused on raising awareness of domestic abuse and education around hÈalthyand unhealthy relationships and tovertopics such as thè law, consent, support ènd service5. Stereotypes, discrimination. safety planning, and safe toping str3te8ies. We partnered with the schools to dertify their rieeds and plan age-appropriate, responsive workshops. For example, our recent work in secondary schools has been focused on the impact of coércive control and identifying the often-hidden behaviours of domestic abuse. Ensuring that young people can distinguish between love and abuse, as coercive control is often hsd(Jen in plain sight. We researched social media use, finding that Snapchat was the most popular platform among young people. We explored the risks, particularly around the location services offered by the app. We saw shock amongst the young people at how easily these features could be misused by abusers/perpetrators. We condurted evaluations at the end of the sessions, and almost all young people said they planned to change their Snapchat security settings following our input. We consider this a succe55,' we know that young people will continue to use the apps, but now they know how to keep themselves safe and protected online.
Clackmannanshire Women's Aid SCIO Page 6. Trustees, Annual Report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2025 ACHIEVEMENTS & PERFORMANCE (contlnued) In prlmary schools, our work focused on targeted groups of young people identified by the school as needing support with healthy friendships, respect, safety, healthy conflict resolution, emotions, coping strategies, attitudes, beliefs, and stereotypes, The groups consisted of between 6 and 10 children and ran In 6.week blocks. At the end of each block, an evaluation w35 undertaken with the groLtp. 100% of the children answered ye5 when asked if they foynd the sessions helpful and if they would like more sessions. We also asked 'What have you learned or what con YOL* take away from the sessions, Some examples of answers we received are a5 follows.. How to be a goodfriend, Wt7y5 tofeel better when l um ongry, Where to 9et help when l om upset, How to sort my worries into things I cun control and rhings I can't, How to keep myself sofe, To wolk awoy until l am colm before I speok to them. By huving meoningful conversation5 oround these i55ues, we have equipped young people with the IGnouoge und tools to novigote situations that theyfind difficult in o sofer way. Through this work, the prevention worker has developed trusting relationships with the young people, allowing them to feel listened to and valued. As a result of delivering the prevention work, we have received l-l r2ferrals from pupi15 who identified themselves a5 neediftg extra support and from Schoolteachers. Lunch clubs. We facilitated 46 lunch club5 ftsr 489 pupils. This lunchtime drop-in service was developed from partnership meetings, which identified the need to create a safe space for vulnerable pupils during lunch. The prevention worker has been instrutnental in driving the MVP (mentors in violencel programme in secondary schools in the local area. We partnered with Educ8tion Scotland and recruited young people who engaged well in PSE classes and attended our lunch clubs or other young people who expressed interest in our area of work to join the prograrnme. The MVP programme engages young people, parti£ularly men and boys, as partners and allies with women and girls against 8ender violente. The programme recogni5es that young people have the potential to impact their peers and their culture greatly. Through our work during 16 days of activism. the young people better understand their role5 and responsibilities with this. Through the work in local schools, we idèr¥tified a need for l..1 prevention for young people showing behaviours that could leave them vulnerable to abuse or potentially abusive behaviours. The preventlon worker created an individualised programme for five young people who fit this category. These I'.1 sessions last apprc¢ximately 45 minute5 and take place weekly for as long as the young person needs them. The teachers have noted a positive impact following these sessions and requested that we continue to deliver them. We were invited to the Alva drama club to discuss different types of abuse and different ways that this can manifest in relationships, to give the students informatign to allow them to create a play regarding domestic abuse. We were invited to a IDcal private school YPI fayre and one of the local mainstream schools YPI fayre. We set up a stall and infDrmed the whole year group taking part about our services. Some of the groups then chose us. The group that picked us from the mainstream school went on to win the YPI, securing us £3000 in prize money. A5 a result, we were invited to the ceremony to discu55 Wlth 311 the participants the impact that thi5 had on our charity.
