ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS
This year has seen our frontline team delivering boots on the ground work at a time that has been so crucial for our children, families and communities. The dedication and resilience of the staff and volunteer team has been a huge asset during this time. The charity has continued to be present and work on a wide ranging scale. Our rhythm of prayer has remained constant and continues to be what underpins and sustains our work.
Our thanks are with all who have supported us over the last year and partnered with us; individuals, churches, trusts and businesses have all been essential to our achievements. We have worked together towards the vision to reach as many children as possible and to see ‘ lasting transformation through the love of God for the most vulnerable unreached children, their families and communities in Leeds’ .
In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular towards the charity’s objects. The Trustees have worked closely with the Leadership Team in risk management across all operational areas as we have navigated the pandemic and the various challenges that it has presented us with. We have also worked in line with the National Youth Agency’s frameworks which have been agreed with the Government for our sector. This year has seen a continuation of our highly responsive model and a team who have reimagined our support in response to the health crisis. Sadly we have seen a 9% increase in child poverty in Leeds this last year (YEP Oct 2021) and children’s mental health concerns remains high. We believe in a different story for the children of our city. It has been a privilege to be present for children and families through an extremely challenging season and during this time and we have also often been inspired by the love and hope that many of our children consistently demonstrate despite challenging times. Thanks to the support and generosity of trusts, individuals, businesses and churches, Kidz Klub continues to work with 1000 children and hundreds of vulnerable families through the various aspects of our work.
We are pleased to share some of the highlights and challenges of the past year.
Response model meeting need
Our communities have been disproportionally affected by the pandemic and phases of lockdowns this year. We have been able to support them with an array of Thrive / Activity packs on a scale that we have never done before. We have put together Pamper Packs with special treats for parents, delivered Baking Packs to celebrate National Baking Week, during February half term we delivered 450 bird feeder craft kits to keep children busy and engaging with nature. One local church even put together 50 ‘Sparkle and Shine’ Packs which included home sanitisers, tissues and hand cream, all items which are expensive to buy. We continued to support our children through C19 safe activities, including; family support, online sessions, outdoor activities including wellness walks, smaller scale indoor support groups and working together with agencies across the city to keep children safe. A new area for us was in responding to the widening digital gap and we developed a great working relationship with Digital Access West Yorkshire (DAWY). We have also deepened our links with local partners during the pandemic, with food agencies and local food banks and Play Street (Leeds City Council initiative) which Kidz Klub helped to mobilize.

Home Visits
The overarching impact of our work is the relational gift our team bring in being interested in children, their families, and their world. Our work is becoming increasingly more important as families struggle to cope with the aftermath of the pandemic, decades of austerity measures and rising prices.
Home visits develop supportive relationships providing a source of strength for children and families, parents feel supported and less isolated from regular visits and our practical help. Our colouring sheets landing through the door each week was a welcome sight, but the children and parents absolutely loved it when we were able to return to
door step visiting and hand them out in person as restrictions allowed. We’ve carried on posting out to areas where we’ve been unable to visit and are building back to our full visiting programme as our volunteer base allows –we are so thankful for our stalwart volunteer team, they are amazing! From October 2020 to July 2021, the team carried out a total of 23,144 home visits . The team have continued to be present, getting out on the streets getting alongside children and their families and sharing the love of God in word and deed.

Kidz Klub Live & Central
Kidz Klub Central brings children to an action packed event and we were collecting children from around the city on 7 double decker buses, and because of this, C19 restriction have not allowed us to relaunch Central Klub this academic year. But by going digital and creating a Kidz Klub You
Tube channel we’ve been able to take our safe, family friendly, accessible, positive teaching directly into the homes of our families. Since the launch of Kidz Klub Live we’ve produced 165 videos containing our usual teaching content, craft ideas for children to follow and do at home, or videos to encourage children to be the difference in their community themselves. We have built up to 461 subscribers and children and families alike have enjoyed 50 Family Live Shows aired on Monday evenings from 5pm since we launched in November. We have attracted 159 NEW children to the Kidz Klub register, and a good proportion of these have come through our new digital format.
Hub Klubs
With schools reopening in March 2021, this meant we could then plan the return of in person Hub Klubs for Beeston, Holbeck and Bramley. Prior to this we had a programme of Hub Klub hangouts on Zoom which were well attended but not as good as being able to be with the children physically (socially distanced of course). Using a digital conference platform meant we were able to put on an Easter special Hub Klub Zoom hang out for the Gipton area of Leeds as well as a Hub Klub Easter Hangout Extravaganza bringing 50 children from across Leeds together – the team had such a special time, culminating in the children singing “My Lighthouse” together as well as signing the words using Makaton.

Getting out in the Community reaching children with God’s love
As well as ensuring our children had fun activity packs themed around Christmas and Easter for them to enjoy and engage with during Lockdowns, on the 14[th] December with our friends at J&B Travel we took several buses out with the team for a
“Christmas Buses of Blessing” event going directly to the streets where our children lived, handing out selection boxes and large Christmas sacks full of pre wrapped toys and delights to eat. We did the same activity to celebrate Easter. The children and families were blown away by us reaching out in such a big bold way. There were lots of surprised and happy smiles on children’s faces as we ran round as spreading Christmas and Easter blessings! Another creative way we looked to ensure we kept connection with our children during this difficult year was by hiring a Bus and running Kidz Klub Bus Blub for a total of 10 weeks. We welcomed 93 children in areas where we felt children were missing out on home visits or seeing the Kidz Klub team.
In June one very sunny weekend 12 – 13[th] and thanks to funding from All Churches Trust and our supporters, we took Kidz Klub on Tour with a solar-powered camper van that converted to a stage. We welcomed 121 children over two days at six different venues (churches and schools) for our usual Kidz Klub style entertainment with adults in costumes, games, songs and Bible based teachings as well as custard pie throwing! In May, as part of our Hub Klub Activates programme, we encouraged our children to get out in their streets with a Chalk Bomb event - the children loved getting together and being artists for the day. In July Hub Klub children from Beeston and Holbeck helped by the team put on a big reach community wide event thanks to the loan of a large Tipi from Slung Low Theatre company - again the sun shone and parents, carers and children all enjoyed spending time together, Kidz Klub activities, taking part in craft, eating cake and feeling a sense of belonging in their neighbourhood.

Another exciting development this summer that has allowed Kidz Klub to get out in the community has been our work with a Leeds City Council initiative Play Street, our team have welcomed funding and enjoyed mobilizing this project and will do so going forward for our communities.
Community Changer Badge Scheme
We believe that children are the community changers and nation shakers. Our job is to help them shine. Our amazing charity Co Leader Laura Hodgkinson and team addressed the issue of our children experiencing disempowerment during the pandemic and devised our NEW Community Changer Challenge Badge scheme this academic term and as a way to engage with children during lockdown periods and beyond. The scheme allows children to work through a programme and receive
badges for great ideas that make a difference at home, in their community and the world! Our team support children, supply all the materials they need for them to work through the stages to collect their Pen Warrior Badge, Joy Champion Badge and an Environmental Champion Badge. The scheme empowers and motivates children to know they can play a part in making a difference, it also allows us to work alongside children chatting through any problems they have.

Family Support Work
During the height of the pandemic, we saw a 20% uplift in calls from families asking for support, especially around mental health and 15% of calls during this time resulted in referrals to other professional services. With restrictions in place, our family support workers got busy with support calls, zoom meetings, door step visits, dropping off food parcels, signposting and introduced wellbeing outdoor walks for our most vulnerable children. We were pleased at how wellness walks have worked as a tool for those children who are the hardest to reach and need dedicated time outside of a group context. Walking, talking and playing have been key for drawing alongside the children and for them to process challenges. Our Family Support work has been vital this year, we move people on in their story of resilience, we’re the first point of call, parents have come to us during lockdowns, coming to Kidz Klub first as we’re so obviously there for the children. When we ask who else have you spoken to, often families say ‘no-one’.
“ You’re not just there for the kids, it’s the adults as well. There’s something different about Kidz Klub, you’re not like other services. Not many services are there in the same way as you are. You aren’t judgemental and you take time to really build relationships with families.” Parent
Young Leader’s & schools
Our new Young Leader’s Co-ordinator came on board in November and has been doing a great job connecting and engaging with 22 of our Young Leader’s and also 23 of our Year 7’s. They have carried out hundreds of calls, made door step visits, led Zoom hangouts, created mental health safe plans, signposted to other organisations and put together in-person events; an Easter Social and a Summer end of term BBQ. The children came together at Bridge Community Church for burgers and hotdogs, many Year 7’s attended to learn more about our Young Leader’s volunteer and
mentoring programme and to enjoy a breakdancing teaching session from a
world champion, Rawgina from Breakin Through Leeds who came through KK herself. During the pandemic, we’ve connected with schools in supporting children and we’ve also supported schools with digital assemblies for Christmas and Easter.
BigKid Collective
It has been a challenging year for income generation and with the aim of assisting this area of charity finance and to build a regular income stream for our work, we launched our NEW BigKid Collective initiative. Our new ecommerce store www.bigkidcollective.co.uk offers ethically sourced clothing and lifestyle products with 100% of the profits supporting our frontline work. Our children were put at the heart of the launch as we ran a competition for them to design festive cards and jumpers to get our new social enterprise initiative off to a flying start.

Future plans
Our model of team members living in communities, weekly Home Visiting for all the children who attend our activities; a weekly Central Kidz Klub; Hub Klubs across the city (smaller spaces within walking distance) for friendship, fun, pastoral support and opportunities for children to run their own regular mission social action projects; child-centred Family Support Work including residentials, mentoring, trips and parental support; Young Leaders programme for children who have been through Kidz Klub, and Schools Work is built on years of experience and reflective practice on what delivers lasting transformation. Our focus over the coming year is upon rebuilding this model to it’s pre pandemic level, alongside maintaining the growth in our Family Support Work.
Our Community Pastoral Workers operate geographically in areas across the city, being a regular contact throughout the week with the children, they Captain the children’s buses on Monday evenings, run Hub Klub’s for them locally, carry out home visiting and visited the local Schools alongside the rest of the staff and volunteer team. Through the pandemic they have offered online activities, home visits in line with guidance and been heavily involved in pastoral and practical support for families. As we grow over the coming years, a key priority for the Trustees remains to see a Community Pastoral Worker in place for every area we cover.
STRUCTURE GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
During this financial year the Trustees have employed the professional services of Antony Collins Solicitors to transition to a new Charitable Incorporated Organisation in the same name ‘Kidz Klub Leeds ‘. This transition (new governance document signed on 29[th] September 21), to a more suitable legal structure has now taken place and we are operating under the new registered charity number 1194238. This year’s accounts therefore reflect 13 months of revenue rather than 12. The new Trust has retained the same charitable objectives and frontline operating model.
Our current Trustees are; Steve Reilly, Linda Harding, Ann Weir and Suzanne Hamlin (new Trustee). Our procedure for recruitment of new Trustees is followed in line with our Safer Recruitment Policy and our constitutional guidelines for the appointment of new Trustees.
As a charity working with children and young people we have continued to take our responsibility for safeguarding seriously, with policies and practice in place and undergoing reviews. Safeguarding supervision for our Family Support and Child Protection leads has also been an ongoing priority. Ann Weir remains our Safeguarding Trustee.
Staff and volunteer development and training
Kidz Klub’s volunteers are such an incredible resource and again have volunteered over 3,000 hours this year. This investment of time is crucial to our work as the volunteers invest in positive relationships with the children, giving them much needed time and role models. This year we have recruited and trained a number of new adult volunteers. Induction training took place with every new volunteer. We believe in investing in our team. The volunteer team reflect all age groups, with volunteers in their teens through to those in their eighties.
We have seconded staff into other roles through the pandemic whilst having some staff on furlough at various points. The staff team have done an excellent job to continue to deliver all our frontline activities amidst these challenges.

Trustee's Annual Report
Our model has included a rhythm of prayer breakfasts and prayer and reflection days over the year. These have been open to all who wish to attend and have been done over zoom when we could not meet in person. The team have found these to be particularly poignant and helpful. As a faith based charity we are reliant as ever upon Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Staff training this year has included: Proximity Conference (inner city mission), child trauma, risk assessment awareness, food allergy awareness, fire warden, food hygiene, safer recruitment, website management, adobe illustrator, child counselling and understanding autism.
Partnerships
This year partnerships have been key to the success of our work. Our financial partners and supporters including charitable trusts and individuals have enabled our boots on the ground work to happen. We have continued to work together with Church Partners as well as other local agencies and closely with SPACE who work with our young people as they transition into year 7 and become too old to attend Kidz Klub. We have been significantly supported by Slung Low in Holbeck who have continued to provide venue space for our work with vulnerable children though the pandemic. Our network has also grown through the pandemic as we have worked as part of the city’s multi agency approach and we have formed stronger working links with many hubs, charities, food banks and debt support charities. We have also benefitted from supportive charitable links within the Business community. Including Hippo Digital who continue to support us and from the support of Ace Northern Containers who have been a longstanding partner.
Financial Statement
The Trust holds no permanent endowments. Our Financial Controls Policy was reviewed in October and the Trustees have exercised prudent financial oversight of the charity through the pandemic. The charity continues to be sustained through three main funding sources: individuals, local churches and Trusts.
Material fundraising activities expenditure came to £7,749 for our fundraising events and sales, consultancy support, for publicity and publications. Return on this expenditure amounted to £145,201 across; fundraising activities, trading, gifts and donations and contributed towards £231,413 in Trust fundraising. Furthermore, no funds have been held on behalf of others and no funds are in deficit.
We remain extremely grateful to all of the trusts who supported our work through grants this year. We are so grateful to all our financial supporters who ensured we could deliver a model which worked hard for others during this difficult year.
During the financial year we have recruited an additional in house fundraising team member to develop our fundraising through donor care, major donors, friends of Kidz Klub, events, businesses and enterprise. These areas of fundraising remain an ongoing target for growth as the budget has increased. We have also experienced some challenges in reaching targets for these areas of fundraising and have had to cancel some planned fundraising events and activities which has impacted on projected income. A strategic priority for the Trustees is the growth of the fundraising team in line with the growing frontline work of the charity.

Trustee's Annual Report
The Trustees and Leadership Team have developed the reserves policy to assist in strategic planning and considering how new projects or activities will be funded. This is also used when reviewing the financial year and to inform the budget process in consideration of balanced budgets or if reserves need to be drawn down or built up. The Trusts reserve policy also informs the budget and risk management process by identifying any uncertainty in future income streams and forecasting ahead for the forthcoming five years. The amount held in reserves is also monitored by the Trustees and Leadership Team during the course of the year as part of the charity's budgetary processes. The Trustees have adopted a reserves policy which they consider appropriate to maintain the activities of the charity in case of unforeseen circumstances or a drop in funding.
It is the policy of the charity to maintain funds for a minimum of three and up to six months operational costs within each financial year.
Actual expenditure for the (13 month) year was at £340,733. Income for the (13 month) year was at £360,085 of which several large funds were granted towards the end of the financial year for use over the forthcoming months. This meant that we ended the financial year with a surplus of £22,725.
Our funds carried forward into 2021/22 are somewhat in excess of our 3-6 month reserve target range. Whilst this is not in line with our usual reserves policy, the Trustees have made this exception to help with planning considering dips in targeted fundraising this year, multi year trust funding coming to an end in the coming financial year and the economic climate in light of the pandemic.
The Trustees are aware that in order to be in a strong position at the end of the next financial year we must continue to prioritise strengthening all streams of income and developing new income streams as well as securing further multi-year trust funds to replace those which have come to an end or are due to do so in the coming year.
The Trustees have designated our funds held in excess of the reserve to be used for operational plans and activities over the coming year. Funds carried forward into the year of £267,713 therefore reflect a stable starting point for the next financial year in line with our plans for the growing frontline model of activities. Despite various sources of funding being less reliable and events having to be postponed, the Trustees have agreed an increased budget for 21-22 to £384,344.35, of which £132,835.30 is guaranteed and expected income. The Trustees have set a target of £155,422.96 to be raised, which would take us into the following financial year with 5 months holdings in line with our 6 months reserves policy.

Notes to the Financial Statements
1 Accounting Policies
Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities Financial Reporting Standards applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (Charities SORP 2019 FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
Assessment of Going Concern
The organisation is not deemed to be a going concern due to the fact that the transfer of charitable activities and the assets of Kidz Klub Leeds to a newly formed Charitable Incorporated Organisation took place on the 29th of September 2021. The newly formed charitable incorporation is Kidz Klub - Leeds charity number 1194238.
It has been deemed reasonable that historical cost basis for preparing the accounts is appropriate due to the fact that the activity, assets and liabilities are simply transferring to a new legal entity and not stopping.
Fund Accounting
Unrestricted income funds comprise those funds which the trustees are free to use for any purpose in furtherance of the charitable objects. Unrestricted funds include designated funds where the trustees, at their discretion, have set aside resources for a specific purpose.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donor.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the accounts.
Incoming Resources
All incoming resources are recognised once the charity has entitlement to the resources, it is probable that the resources will be received and the monetary value of incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability.
• All voluntary income from supporters are recognised as donations and are included in full, with associated Gift Aid receivable in the Statement of Financial Activities.
• Grants where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of specific performance by the charity are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.
• Income resources from charitable trading activities such as the letting of the building are accounted for when invoices are drawn up (as the point of entitlement).
• Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified and the donation is material to the accounts.
• Gifts in Kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount actually realised.
• Volunteer time, the value of voluntary support for the work of the charity, is not included in the accounts but is described in the accounts.

Notes to the Financial Statements
- Investment Income is included in the accounts when receivable.
Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out the resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
Governance Costs
Includes costs of the preparation and examination of statutory accounts, the costs of the trustees' meetings and cost of any legal advice to trustees on governance or constitutional matters.
Liability Recognition
Abilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources.
Tangible fixed assets
All assets costing more than £500 are capitalised and at historic cost. Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is charged on furniture and equipment which is written off on a straight-line basis over time, estimated useful live of the asset.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. There are no critical judgements (apart from those involving estimations) that management has had to make in the process of applying the entities accounting policies that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.
Defined Contribution Plans
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.
When contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the reporting date in which the employees render the related service, the liability is measured on a discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as an expense in the period in which it arises.
