## 1. **Introduction** 

In December 2020 Michael Posner, one of our long serving Trustees and for many years our Honorary Treasurer, sadly died after a very long illness. We would like to record our grateful thanks for Michael’s great service to, and support of, the Bank Youth Project. 

One of the many challenges facing a youth organisation like ours is the recruitment of Trustees, which is a voluntary position. Trustees serve on the Management Group and are collectively responsible for every aspect of the Bank Youth Project and its work with Young People. 

Some other challenges we face are raising funds, recruiting staff, maintaining our building and equipment, keeping in touch with other youth organisations in the area and community organisations in Ashburton. Our greatest challenge this last year, along with many other organisations and individuals, has been dealing with the pandemic, and our staff team have risen to that challenge and remained positive throughout. 

## 2. **Membership and Attendance** 

With much regret, and as for the majority of youth clubs nationwide, the Bank Youth Project had to close in March 2020 in response to the Coronavirus pandemic. BYP members and staff went into lockdown in their own homes in what we hoped would be a temporary public safety measure. 

Initially, the youth team experimented with offering online social sessions with the help of a few BYP senior helpers. There was little interest, however, from members who were able, and preferred, to socialize independently online. It became clear that the physical space to hang out away from home is key to what BYP offers. 

1 



In the summer, BYP purchased a portable event tent that the youth team could set up for regular sessions outdoors in the recreation ground. Many existing members made use of this opportunity to meet, talk and participate in arts and crafts and sports sessions. It also was a chance to keep BYP visible, but it was difficult to attract new members and provide the same space as BYP. 

In late September, after several risk assessments, in-house staff training sessions and a deep clean of the centre, BYP re-opened with limits of 15 members per session, and a number of Covid safety precautions, including PPE. Session numbers gradually grew until most sessions were at Covid capacity, this also included some new members. After the second lockdown, numbers were much slower to return to this level. It was thought that parents and members wanted a greater sense of stability. In addition, maintaining the Covid safe ventilation levels made the centre uncomfortably cool at times during winter. 

In the third lockdown, members of the youth team tried to contact members by phone to check how they were getting on. Some parents reported concern that children weren’t socializing. 

## **Programme** 

## (a) Advice and Support Services 

BYP for many years has offered information, advice, support and guidance to the young people of Ashburton and the surrounding area. Not being able to meet together in a physical space for most of the year, dramatically limited BYP’s ability to do this. Access to these services continued during youth club sessions when BYP was able to remain safely open. When closed, contact phone numbers for support were posted on the BYP website and Facebook page. 

Most of the usual services BYP offers were suspended for much of this year, including: 

- Group discussions and one-to-one sessions with qualified staff, with the emphasis on promoting positive values 

- Working 1-2-1 to support young people with mental health issues 

- Employment advice, referencing, and CV writing 

- Advice and support on issues relating to training, education, health, sexual health and contraception, drugs and alcohol, relationships and family matters, housing and benefits 

- Leaflets and access to information via the internet 

- Signposting and referral to other specialist agencies. 

There was great relief expressed by returning members in September 2020 that BYP had survived and re-opened, even if with Covid restrictions. 

Being able to provide a wide range of support services for young people offers a great sense of ‘peace of mind’ for them, allowing them to make informed decisions based on good quality, up-to-date information. Having a diversity of personality within the staff team, coupled with the appropriate training, allows more choice for members to be able to engage with whom they feel most comfortable. 

2 



## (b) Youth Club Activities 

Naturally the range of activities was reduced this past year. Activities such as cooking sessions, for example, didn’t fit within the Covid guidelines. BYP has continued to find ways to adapt to offer as much variety of creative, developmental, educational, recreational and social activities, as possible in the circumstances. This included: - 

- Life skills, including speaking, communicating and self-expression 

- Debates and discussions, and homework help 

- Outdoor team games, and also, when Covid rules allowed, indoor games including pool and table tennis 

- Quizzes, competitions 

- Arts and crafts activities 

- Weekly outdoor sports and team building activities. 

The Youth Support Workers delivered these activities with support from responsible and dedicated adult and young volunteers. In a difficult year, we were at least able to offer windows of opportunity for all local young people to meet away from home and school. The staff team monitor behaviour, follow BYP’s Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy, and regularly receive training. BYP followed National Youth Agency guidelines for when it was safe to re-open and additional parameters for health and safety in this Covid year, including number limits for sessions, social distancing, masks, hand sanitiser, etc. 

## (c) Personal Development 

When encountering youth in the community, BYP staff and volunteers continued to ask after members’ wellbeing and encourage inclusiveness in youth-organised online gatherings. And when the club was open, staff were on hand to help members to develop positively as individuals, family members and as members of the local community in the following ways: - 

- Being able to ‘let off steam’ safely 

- Sessions to help members develop self-esteem and self-confidence 

- 1-2-1 care and ‘Safe Place’ support for young people with mental health problems 

- Awareness raising for members on issues affecting young people, such as health and wellbeing, bullying, LGBTQ, homophobia and equal opportunities 

- Encouragement of socially isolated members to become more active 

- Training and positive experience for volunteer senior helpers with guidance from trained youth workers 

- Helping members with homework issues, or wider educational questions 

- Involvement of members in staff recruitment, planning, organising and leading activities in the BYP programme 

## (d) Community Engagement Activities 

Most community activities in general were cancelled this past year. 

- BYP continued to work in a number of ways to engage with the local community, including: - participation in: - 

   - Christmas advent window and delivering leaflets for the Rotary Christmas appeal 

   - Publicising BYP through _Around Ashburton_ 

   - Publicity with schools and in the community about re-opening in 2021 

   - Bank Youth Project website 

   - Art & Media workshops in the community recreation ground in the summer of 2020 and at BYP in September/October and for a couple of weeks before Christmas 

   - Facebook updates (though use of Facebook by members and their families appears to have reduced) 

3 



- Creation of an updated BYP promotional leaflet 

- Working in partnership with local businesses, organisations and individuals to bring BYP to the attention of the local community and to involve more people in volunteering as adult helpers, and as members of the management group. 

## **5. Staffing** 

Over the past year there have been some staff changes. All of the youth team were on furlough in the first lockdown. Then in August, Emma Chilcott and Zak Holt moved on. Cheyann Wood joined as an Assistant Youth Support Worker in September. Julian Skinner remains the Lead Youth Support Worker. Meadow Smith, formerly an adult volunteer at BYP, began work as an Apprentice Youth Support Worker leading to a qualification in Youth Work with Petroc College. The Apprentice Training Programme contains some taught sessions, which Meadow has to travel to Tiverton to attend. The start of the programme was delayed and communication with the college has not been easy. Hopefully things will improve. 

Lesley Booker continued work as administrator throughout the year, working mostly from home. 

Senior helpers supported sessions at BYP when open, they were Savanna West, Chloe Thorne, Jodie Fleming and Mya Honeywell. Senior helpers helped mostly with the Wednesday sessions for younger members. 

Three staff members had VOYC Group 2 Safeguarding Training in the autumn, and two completed Group 5 Safeguarding Training early in the new year. 

## **6. Premises** 

Periods when the building was closed were used, where possible. to clean, sort through and discard old or out-dated equipment and materials, and improve the space in preparation for re-opening. A carpenter was commissioned to build fixed seating near the café area, as requested by members last year. 

BYP also began renting space on some days during the week to On Track Education Services for one-to-one tutor-student sessions. 

## **7. Funding** 

BYP is fortunate to have had continued support throughout this past year from the National Lottery Community Fund with payments of £39,568 in August 2020 and in February 2021. 

DYS SPACE offered emergency relief funding for youth centres of £3,000, and the HMRC JRS Grant provided support for furlough wages in the first lockdown. In such difficult times we are also extremely grateful for the support we receive from the community: 

Ashburton and Buckfastleigh Rotary Club Ashburton Chamber of Trade Ashburton Post Office and Glendinnings Ashburton Quakers Ashburton Town Council Ashburton Town Lottery Ashburton Women’s Institute Buckfast Abbey Trust Co-op Dartmoor National Park Fleet Caravans Presence St Lawrence Chapel Wild Goose & Skylark Bands Anonymous Donors

## **8. Conclusion** 

Congratulations and thanks to our staff team; our administrator who remained the calm voice of sanity at all times, our cleaner who went above and beyond to keep the building very clean, our youth support workers who always manage to rise to the occasion, continue to provide support to our young people and in particular maintained high standards in response to Covid by implementing and adhering to Covid safe rules and regulations. 

Thank you to our Trustees and Town Council Representative for their on-going commitment and support of the Project. Thank you to our funders; our five-year funding from the National Lottery Community Fund provides a funding base, which allows us to plan and look ahead with some certainty, and support from our local funders help us to develop projects, purchase equipment and make improvements to our building. 

We look forward to another year of improving what we do, providing a safe space for the young people of Ashburton and the surrounding area, whilst we continue to learn how to live with Covid.
