Trustees Annual Report
Administrative Detalls of the Charity:
The Christian Youth Worker for Felixstowe Trust Limited, now known as BOOST Felixstowe, was
inaugurated in August 2000 by several churches in Felixstowe with the purpose of setting up and
running a youth service for the town. This involved the employment of a full-time youth worker who
would creatively deliver youth services to compliment those already offered by local churches and
engage with local senior schools. The Charity has developed over the years and now provides a full-
time Chaplain at Felixstowe School.
Structure, Governance and Management:
This is a small charlty managed by the Trustees who have a variety of professlonal backgrounds. No
specific training is required for trustees, but they are often involved in the children's/youth work of
their individual churches. They meet on a regular basis to supervise the charitv.
Boost employs a chaplain to deliver the work of School Chaplalncy within Felixstowe School,
secondary school and sixth form with Academy status. The chaplain is line managed by an appointed
trustee, and other workers/volunteers report to the chaplaln as approprlate. The chaplaln also reports
into the Management Team of the School.
New trustees are appointed when necessary, normally from the supporting churches. Trustees and
volunteers have all completed a DBS check.
Flnanclal Pollcy:
The charitvs financial position is laid out in the accompanying accounts. There are no overdraft
facillties In place and therefore outgoings are mana8ed in Ilne with Income received. The Trust is
supported by regular monthly givin8 from supporters and income is supplemented with grants and
fund-raislng activities. The Reserves pollcy agreed by the Trustees Is to keep at least 3 months of
outgoings available. There are no funds held as custodlan trustee on behalf of others.
The work of the Trust continues to be dependent on the flnanclal support of the local churches and
many Indlvidual supporters who 8lve to the Trust monthly.
The Trustees are grateful for the encouragement of these people and organisations for their continued
support, as well as those who attend fund ra151ng events.
Flnan¢lal Revlew:
Most of the funding Is expended on the salary and employment costs of the Chaplain. Our General
Fund income for this financial year was £43,650 and expenditure £39,638 giving us an excess of
Income over expenditure of £4,013. We were able to carry forward £22,116 which equates to
approximately 44% of annual running costs.
Fundlng by regular supporters, has continued at its normal level with the exception of three supporters who
have dled durin8 this period. Most of the giving has attracted Gift Aid. We have seen an increase in online
glvlng made through our web site,
Grants have again been a significant source of income with £3,993 was obtained from The Belstead Trust,
and Field to Fork, East Suffolk County Council. Additionally, the Rotary Club of Felixstowe who have made a
restricted grant of £1,280 specifically for welfare 5UPPOrt for school meals, breakfast club funding and school
uniform support.

BOOST FELIXSTOWE LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS 2024
Non-gift aid donations and fund-raising events contributed significantly greater amounts than normal during
this financial year and totalled £11,787. This sum was largely because we were selected as one of the Town
Mayors Charites which contributed £7,250 with a further £1,781 raised by the pupils of Felixstowe School.
Two BBQS run by BOOST raised £2,756.
Publlc beneflt: The Trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to the Charity Commission
guidance on publlc benefit. The charity is sUPPOrting young people in Felixstowe with the provision of
cnapiainjs operating within peiixstowe 5CnOOi.
Achlevements and performance:
Thls academic year saw the contlnuation of chaplalncy work at Felixstowe School, and some excitlng
additions and expansions of the work too.
Firstly, In January, we launched primary school chaplaincy at the Federation of Falrfield and Colneis Schools,
after an extended period of consultation with the headteacher and the wider team at the school, Chaplaincy
launched with much public support and has been developed over three lunchtimes a week at the Colneis
slte, with addltlonal chaplaincy presence at other schoo5 events. We were dellghted to welcome Julie to the
team as a volunteer to develop this new work, alongside her studies in Contemporary Chaplaincy with
Waverley Abbey. We are dellghted with the early successes of this partnership and the benefits already
being recogni5ed in students and staff.
Secondly, we were fortunate to be selected as one of the Mayor of Felixstowe's chosen charltles from Mav
2023 to May 2024. This involved a number of additional events and commitments throughout the year for
the trustee team, but resulted in both a large fundraising total, and many new connectlons wlth Felixstowe
Town Council, the other charitles, and the local Felixstowe community.
The continuatlon of chaplaincy at Felixstowe School saw no new additions to the work, Instead a focus on
Improving the effectlveness of chaplalncy in every area. A brief summary of achievements Is included below
under the three categories of our work.
Awe and Wonder
We continued to provlde hlgh quallty and engaging assemblies at Chrlstmas, Easter, Remembrance and
other key moments throughout the year to the school community.
Our chaplain facilitated the Reflection Room as a safe and special place for contemplation, prayer and
reflectlon, open daily to students of all falths and none.
We continued to provide three extra-curricular clubs throughout the year, all attracting record number5 of
students. Chess Club and Garden Club each recorded around 100 registered members, Theology Club seeing
34. The Theology Club was spllt Into a Key Stage 3 group and a Key Stage 4 group to improve the student
experlence In these sessions, run with a local volunteer,
Trips were organised to a local church for a Chrlstmas and Easter seniice, the Palace of Westminster for
the Student Parliament Groupi and a Model UN conference for the Scholars group.
Justice and Activism
The Garden Project received the highest award of the School Gardening Awards (Level 51 from the Royal
Horticultural Society, and continued to be successful in achieving small pots of funding to allow for the
purchase of materials and resources. The whole of the Year 7 cohort were engaged in the Garden Project
during the school's health and wellbeing day in the Spring Term.
Our chaplain enabled the meeting and running of the school's Student Parliament and the Active Travel
Ambassador group, working on a range of projects throughout the year.
A school-wide Mock Election was organised by the chaplain alongside the General Election, engaging
students in the political process as they formed partles and campaigned for votes from the student body.
