The Fami is continuing lo build upon ils well-established programmes. adding new facilitses and projects. Against a backdrop of social challenges brought aboul by Covid. Cosl of Living crises increasing health inequalities and education and employment inequalities. As a result. we have conlinu8d to gn)w our team to meet the increased demand for our services and complexity of needs of those attending our projects. To meet this demand between January to December the team reduced in headcount from 39 salaried stsff to 37 salaried staff but increased its FTE from 18.1110 20.84. This was a concerted effort to reduce the number of very sm811 part-time roles. Providing a rich programme of therapeutic. educational and lifelong lèaming opportunibes: Children. Young People and Family Service During 2024 our well-eslablished Children & Young People Programme provided opportunities to 1044 local young people via hundreds of larm-based sessions. Although Bath is a wealthy city. the are pockets of significant deprivation. the majority of which are located in the areas surrounding the farm. Children and young people living in the poorest areas of Bath. and tho surrounding B&NES district. are significantly more likely than Ihe national average to be absent from school, obese, misuse substances, participate in anti-social behaviour, or be admitted to hospital with mental health issues. Our provlslon is focused on Ihe four age 9rCpirJS that reflect local educalion systems - under 5s. &11s. 11-16s and 16-25s - and Ihe transitions which frequently impact young people's menlal heallh. The programmes provide regular structure. valuable leaming and socialising opportunitiès outslde of family life and formal education. Additionally. children in the Atemative Provision Programme and 16-25 SkAls Course hav8 the opportunity to achieve AQA certificales. Much of our provlsion Is provided free of charge and 290 local young people (aged 1-251 benefiled from these free programmes. Almost all of these young people f8c& a variety of challenging circumstances. and the vast majority attended sessions for many months or the whole year. For Ihgse young people Ihe farm is a safe and fun place where they can learn new skills. make friends, connect with Ihe animals and nature and build their resilience. In addition to Ihis, 563 pupils visited Ihe lam) on a school visil. Many of these young people also face additional challenges and disadvantages and some had never been to the siie. Leaming about the animals and ecology of the farm brings their classroom lessons to life and provides an important opportunity to b8 in nature. A further 191 young people joined our regular paid for provision. Costs are kept as low as possible lo lry lo ènsure affordability. Many of the young people on these programmes also have addilional needs and the provision allows Ihem to learn new skills. and for those of school age, to socialise outside of school. In 2024 we grew ovr successftrl Wild Acres Ajternative Provision Programme.
