## **SUMMARY OF CANVEY ISLAND YOUTH PROJECT (YELLOW DOOR)** 

Canvey Island Youth Project was established in July 1992.  Our constitution was adopted on the 19th of September 1996 when we became an unincorporated organisation. We became a registered charity on 29th July 1997. Charity Number 1063643 

We are a local charity based in South East Essex. We work with young people between the ages of 11 and 25, especially those who are disadvantaged because of often-interrelated issues such as learning difficulties, behavioural problems, family issues, poverty, and mental health problems. 

We aim to help them by offering a range of services and activities, which focus on young people’s health and wellbeing. The services include one-to-one advice, information and support, Counselling and Mentoring. Small well-being groups for social skills and anxiety. Activities include a performing arts group, a youth club, a youth group for quieter young people and a sports club. We also work with young people through detached and outreach work and offer educational workshops on substance misuse issues. 

Our aim is to enable the young people who use our service  to  develop  the  knowledge,  life  skills  and confidence needed to make informed choices and to manage their sometimes very challenging life 

2 



circumstances. In so doing, helping them achieve their full potential in education, employment, family life and society. 

This year we reorganised our services into our mental health and wellbeing services (our originals YIAC services, Counselling, and Advice and Information work plus small group work and mentoring.) Youth work services which included clubs and activities and outreach and food bank. 

## Health and Wellbeing (YIAC) 

Our Health and Wellbeing Services worked with 411 young people. our services continued to be affected by the Covid Pandemic and government guidance. We offered zoom and telephone support and face to face work as soon as guidance allowed.

## Case Study 

TN had trouble containing anger and outbursts at school, this then caused him to get into trouble and get kicked out a number of times. Then because of school problems it was putting a strain on mum and his relationship.  We developed ways of dealing with his outburst and things he can do instead going to trusted teacher and using certain skills to "check in" with himself for example 5 senses.  Behaviour at school improved and his timeout card is being used properly. Relationship with mum is so much better now.

## Feedback from Young People 

The sessions have helped so much. Thanks for everything they have been a godsend, I am in a completely different place than when I started thanks to you. 

This has really helped me. I am happier, I’m less grumpy and I feel like a nicer person.  I can express myself better and I am much less anxious. Thank you 

This has made so much difference to the way I see my ability. My confidence has grown, and I am doing well at school now.

## Counselling 

Hi my name is Tina and I am the senior counsellor at Yellow Door. 

It has been a challenging but exciting year for the counselling service. Not long after we had introduced our new counsellor Charis to the team COVID-19 struck and we were required to work from home.  We had to find new ways to support our clients remotely and suddenly found ourselves doing sessions via telephone, Zoom and even WhatsApp and email! Needless to say, Charis rose to the occasion and has been an absolute asset to the team. 

Our student counsellor Jelani has recently completed her 100 hours of counselling practice at Yellow Door. She is fully qualified.  Congratulations Jelani!   We were so impressed with her work that she is now working part time for us. 

Unfortunately, we had to say goodbye to Angela Black who had been with us for many years. I’d like to thank Angela for all her hard work on the counselling team and for all the volunteering support that she gave to Yellow Door in other areas too. 

The counselling service has had some great results over the last year.  We continue to work with other agencies, schools, mental health teams, GP’s and Social Care and, as Covid has shown, we continue to adapt our services to meet the client’s need. 

Finally, I’d like to thank the High Sheriff and Alex for recognising the 16 years that I have been a part of the Yellow Door team.  It is so rewarding to see young people overcome adversity in their lives.  Sharing their journey as they build resilience and grow in confidence is a real privilege that I hope I never take for granted. 



## Feedback from Young People 

This has helped a lot! 

This has worked. I feel a lot more confident and happy. 

They've really helped me; I never would have been able to get through what was going on without them. Thank you so much. 

They have helped me understand what coping mechanisms to use when I feel stressed or sick. They have helped me along the way. Thank you.

## Understanding Counselling Outcomes 

## Increased confidence and Self Esteem 

Many of the young people that we see in counselling and groups experience bullying, abuse or environments that make them feel ‘other’ or less than. This results in little or no confidence or selfesteem. Furthermore, in light of the SARS-Covid 19 pandemic many young people have experienced a decrease in confidence and self-esteem due to being in fear of the pandemic, restrictions on life and not being able to live as they previously were. Many young people we work with also fear being judged which they experience in everyday life, particularly at school. In Counselling, young people are helped to work through these fears using CBT methods such as identifying distorted thinking patterns which impact their confidence and self-esteem and begin to challenge and push these boundaries whilst learning ways to help cope with the changes they are making. This leaves young people with ways to manage experiences that are difficult for them and feel more able to do the things they want to do without fear of judgment from others. 

## Improved Social and Communication Skills 

We have seen many young people who have found the last few years particularly difficult and have experienced anxieties that they previously did not have. In addition to this, the emotional struggle that the pandemic has caused has left many young people not being able to understand or process how they feel or felt.  Due to this and challenges they face within the family many clients come to counselling not knowing how to communicate their emotions, anxieties and fears. Counselling on a one-to-one basis that we offer allows clients a safe, confined space to begin to work with the counsellor to unpick and piece together their emotions. They learn how to identify and communicate how they are feeling and methods in which to share this with those in their lives. For most clients this means being able to better communicate with friends and family in order to feel more included in social situations, helping relieve social anxiety in which many of our young people face. This also allows them to improve relationships and feel less lonely and isolated. 

## Increased Life Skills 

Many of the young people that come to counselling have experienced difficult life events; divorce, bereavement, bullying, relationship issues or peer group pressures. They do not have the life skills or knowledge to cope with these challenges. As a result many of them struggle to cope and withdraw from others, this can cause difficulties in mental health such as anxiety, depression and even suicidal ideation and commonly self harm. Counselling provides a place to validate and explore young people’s emotions whilst normalising how they are coping with the changes around them. In the past year we have particularly worked to increase life skills of young people accessing services in terms of bereavement. Many have faced bereavements from Covid and have had to face multiple deaths in the family during this time. This has overwhelmed many young people because they attend counselling to help with one bereavement and once they begin to feel they are able to cope with this they experience another and fall back in terms of the process they feel they were making. Counselling has enabled those clients to have the support that they have needed outside of the grieving family to help them through the complex emotions of this. They then go on to leave counselling in the knowledge that they have the skills to manage future life challenges. 

## Improved Health and Wellbeing 

Most young people who access counselling benefit from their sessions, they come with a goal in mind or presenting issue that they struggle with and work with the counsellor to explore and manage this. This benefits particularly from policy that ensures only clients who want to access counselling receive sessions, there are some clients who go on to access higher tiered services, particularly if we feel their needs cannot be met by us. An example of this would be clients who are 

8 



immediate risk to themselves or those with complex eating disorders who would benefit from services more specific to their needs. However, almost all clients who access counselling report increased well-being from counselling whether they are suffering from anxiety, depression, bereavement, bullying, self-esteem or confidence issues. 

## EMDR CASE STUDY 

EMDR is a therapy used to treat trauma.  Trauma is caused when old disturbing memories stored in the brain get locked in to the nervous system with all the original images, sounds, thoughts and feelings involved.  The distressing material keeps getting triggered over and over again.  EMDR uses eye movement to link the traumatic memories to helpful information that is stored in another part of the brain. (This may be what happens naturally in REM or dream sleep when eye movements help to process unconscious material) 

My client was 17 years old and had learning difficulties.  She had been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder following a series of sexual assaults within an abusive relationship.  The client was missing college due to experiencing high anxiety and panic attacks, flashbacks and nightmares, hypervigilance and low mood. 

We spent several sessions building up a trusting relationship, so that I could safely take the client’s trauma history.  Then we did a ‘safe place’ exercise as I had to ensure that the client was able to ‘self-soothe’ so that she could take care of herself between sessions. 

By using EMDR for each separate incident the client was able to process all of the negative beliefs that she had about herself such as; “I should have done something”, “I am to blame” “I am going to die”, “I am powerless”.  Instead she began to believe: “I did all that I could”, “I am not to blame”, “I survived, I am safe now” and “I now have choices”. 

As each memory was processed the client noticed that she could remember it without feeling any distress.  She stopped having nightmares and flashbacks; she regained her confidence and no longer felt anxious.  As a result, she began to socialise with friends again and was able to return to college. 

## Mentoring 

This year we have developed a new mentoring service to run alongside our counselling service. The service supported 59 young people. It offered them one to one support once a week for 50 minutes for up to 12 weeks. Our mentors supported young people to develop their life and social skills to increase their resilience and feel more confident and support them to move on to our other clubs and activities. Mentoring supported young people using different approaches depending on the needs of the young person including craft, pool, sport and chat. The mentor worked with the young person based on needs of the young person or the goals they wanted to achieve.

## Small Group Work 

## Social Skills Group 

When people are referred for social skills, it is the first step for the young people progressing into groups. Social skills group has a maximum of 4 young people and the different type of work we have covered within the social skills groups has been: How to use eye contact correctly, how to use open ended questions rather than short one-word answers and our main one is body language. After learning that 70-93% of communication is nonverbal and mainly our body language this is something that has come in handy when developing the young people’s social skills. We also covered confidence and anxiety in social skills as most of the young people feel too nervous to start conversations and worry, they will say the wrong thing, we use worksheets and games like our confidence Jenga in sessions. Once skills had been developed, we had client led sessions meaning they could decide what activities they wished to do, this could include playing pool, the football table, board games and arts and crafts. 

Once all clients were comfortable within sessions, we would then discuss them progressing onto our bigger groups like QT club. This has been the case for a number of my young people and now they are developing more skills in a bigger group.

## Hope Box 

Hope Box is a four to six week course where we can help young people identify problems and issues which make them feel anxious and worried.  There are two courses for different ages 11 to 13 and 14 to 16.   A questionnaire is completed on week one and the same questionnaire is completed at the end of the course to assess if the course has helped.  Each course is based on the topics identified by the young people in the first week. 

The course is informal and a range of activities are provided to help the young people find ways to reduce their stress.  Group discussions, video clips, apps, websites, arts and crafts are also used.  At the end of the course everyone is provided with a small box to take home which has their own ideas to help them in the future.

## Advice and Support 

Our advice and support service has always been at the heart of Yellow Door. Young People have been able to drop-in and get support with a whole range of advice and support from homelessness to benefits, CV writing to sexual health. Of all our services, it was our drop-in that was affected the most by the Pandemic with some of the work having to take place on the phone and others requiring the young person to make an appointment. This has meant only 67 young people have used the service this year. However, this doesn’t mean our skills and knowledge have gone unused. We have worked with over 600 parents and adults. This includes 200 families and adults who have accessed our food bank and needed extra advice and support such as homeless advice and signposting. We also support over 400 parents and carers who contacted us for support for their young people. This advice and support were wide ranging and including advice on drugs and alcohol, signposting, parenting advice and support; emotional support. 

## Food Bank 

This year has been another busy year for the food bank. We supported over  952 people including 567 children, 385 adults, of whom 182 were single, 247 were families and 53 couples. We gave away over 2340 food parcels. Each parcel contained enough food for 3 days. We were supported by local supermarkets to ensure we could also supply fresh food and bread and work with a large range of partners including St Nicholas Church, Wintergardens Baptist, Salvation Army, Canvey Baptist, Paul from the YOT team, Peter May, Bill Dudbridge and our wonderful Volunteer drivers. 


With support of funding from Essex County council we also supported families and individuals with heating and school uniforms. In Partnership with St Nicholas church supported by the Methodist Church and many other organisations on Canvey we ran a Toy Faire in December where parents could collect free toys, books, sweet, stocking fillers and wrapping paper to ensure their children had a good Christmas and received toys chosen by their parents and carers. 

We have been supporting our young people and the wider community with food and other practical support for over 30 years. A service which with the support of our partners was massively enlarged during and after the Pandemic. However, at the same time the number of food banks on the Island and those giving food to those in the community also increase during the pandemic which has made co-ordination and consistency difficult. We therefore decided at the end of year to close the site at yellow door youth hub and allow Canvey Food Bank to run solely from St Nicholas Church to ensure work was 


not being duplicated and also allow us to concentrate on our core work. 


## Working together 

Throughout the year we have worked with, been supported by and support many community and statutory 

12 



organisations including, Active Essex, EVCYS, Essex Youth Service, Peabody, Social Services, Young Peoples mental health services, Castle Point Association of Voluntary organisations, Trust links, Churches and community groups, and Businesses, including Morrisons, Sainsburys, Wyvern Transport, Salvation Army and Thames 21. We have also offered advice and support to other groups and organisation about our work and the issues young people and the people of Canvey face. We have also sat on Partnership meetings such as the Youth Strategy meetings. We invited many of these partners to join us during the Visit of HRH Princess Anne to Yellow Door. 

## Youth Work and Activities 

It has been an amazing year for our youth work and activities as they have struggled against covid restrictions but continued to be flexible and ensure we met the needs of our young people and then grew and changed and delivered some great work.

## Summer Arts Workshop 


Our Groups give the young people opportunities to participate in new activities, build new skills and develop confidence in themselves. For example, we ran an art group through the summer holidays. The young people who attended suffered from anxiety, lack of confidence, and felt socially isolated. These sessions gave them the opportunity to learn new art techniques and express themselves using photography and painting. Through 

direction, lots of beautiful artwork and photography were created. Their work was displayed in an art show that 


**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>
13<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br>




families and local dignitaries attended. Young people at the start of the group who barely had the confidence to step into our building or look at an adult were showing dignitaries around the art exhibition and explaining their work. 

## QT Club 

QT club continue to go from strength to strength. QT Club is for young people aged 11 to 18 who need support with meeting new people and finding new friends and who may find the ‘normal’ youth clubs too noisy or hard to navigate. Some of the young people who attended had special needs such as ADHD or were on the Autistic spectrum. Each week there was a fun activity, craft and sport. As well as pool, PlayStation, football, basketball and arts and crafts. At the end of the year we took a group of our Quiet Club young people on a ‘graduation trip’ to a trampoline centre. They had made friends, learnt new social skills and become very confident. Some had become young volunteers and joined other groups. They had also all become too noisy for the quiet group and so they were graduating to Youth Club. We were very proud of them all. 


## Youth Café to Youth Club 

Our Youth Café was closed for a large part of the Pandemic and we worked with the young people who used to attend Youth Café during detached and outreach work. During this time we reflected on the work we did in the youth café and how it could possibly be better for the young people and how we could achieve better outcomes. We did this through discussion with staff and young people and looking at the feedback we had from young people, parents and the wider community over the year. We decide to change the Youth Café into a Youth Club. The Youth Club is still a safe space to hang out with friends and play pool and PlayStation but is more bounded and provides activities, sports, games, information and advice. This change has worked well. 

## Holiday Activities 


During the school holidays funding from Active Essex allowed us to deliver wellbeing Holiday clubs. In these clubs we provided sports activities, craft activities, and activities around young people’s health and wellbeing. We also provided hot meals and opportunities for young people to take part in cooking activities. Often the young people who attend these sessions, felt socially isolated, anxious, lacking in certain social skills, and want a place to have fun and partake in activities. These sessions 

14 



often lead to further opportunities to support, within our services, or provide a safe place to discuss a variety of topics such as relationships and bullying. 

## Sports Club 


Our sport clubs offers young people who may otherwise not have the opportunity to take part in sport, multi-sport activities including football, basketball, hockey, tennis etc. This year we took a group of our young people to a Police Football Tournament. Our young people were up against regular football teams but despite this and the pouring rain they got into the semi finals and were praised for their determination and effort. 


## Jack Petchey 

This year we have also joined the Jack Petchey awards. We gave our first award to Brodie for his kindness, empathy and ensuring that no one is left out of group activities and encouraging new members to get involved. Taking time to make that person to feel comfortable in the new setting. 


## Young Volunteers 

Our young volunteers continued to be very busy this year, supporting our youth clubs and taking part in community action. Amy 

and Coral took part on the clean up of the Dyke at the bottom of King George Field in partnership with Yellow Door and Thames 21. 

## Next Level 

Next level is our performing arts club. Bernie, its leader says “It’s been a strange year for the students. Coming out of lockdown, we could meet again, but we had to wear masks and keep six feet apart. No singing or moving about! Eventually the restrictions were lifted, and we could start to move around, but then many of the students or members of their families caught covid, so we had a lot of absences, which made it difcult to produce a show. We did, however, manage to put on two shows at the Yellow Door hub for the parents and friends of the students. One was a comedy we had written called ‘Canvey Got Talent’! And the other was ‘Songs for Valentine’s Day’ for which we also served cakes and goodies for the parents as a special Valentine gift from their children. Both shows were a success. I am immensely proud of every one of our students. “ 

## Parents comment 

“Thank you, for helping G to be confident  and happy, it was a wonderful show.” 

## Older Qt 

Old QT was run for young people 16 plus. It was client led for young people who often had complex needs. The club offered support to build social skills, including good listening skills as well a practical support such as how to write CVs and use platforms such as indeed. It also offered fun activities such 

15 



as art and crafting i.e., embroidery, as well as games, activities, and opportunity to lead the session. The young people in the group established strong bonds, confidence and employability skills. 

## Outreach and Detached

## Canvey Big Local LTO 

This year we have continued to support Canvey Big Local as their Local Trusted Organisation. The major work for the Big Local has been the Gunny project. This project aims to turn what is largely a derelict schedule 1 heritage site into a great community space for all ages by providing equipment, a community building, wetland area, wildlife areas, community garden amongst other things. This year Canvey Big Local has got planning permission for the project, a business plan and is work with a local charity Trust Links and Canvey Council to fulfil the project. 

## Managers’ Report 

It only now writing the Annual Report and we have time to take a breath and look at the last year that it is possible to realise what a busy and amazing year that it was. Not only were we able to continue to run all our services but we also developed and ran new clubs, started new activities, and developed new partnerships, including our Bee Kind Project. 



We were also honoured with a visit from Her Royal Highest Princes Anne, given a community award by Canvey Town Council and another by the High Sheriff of Essex. Days which none of us will forget. 

We could not have achieved this work without our amazing staff. We acknowledge the hard and sometimes stressful work this year by having a team wellbeing day at Watt Tyler’s Park which all enjoyed and hopefully will repeat.
