**TUNINGIN** —" F ote *. ## **Annual Accounts Jan - Dec 2023** Charity Number: 1086709 _____________________________________________________ Address: 36 Fountayne Road London N16 7DT _____________________________________________________ Email: sail4yp@gmail.com ## _As we reflect on this year at SAIL, the theme of Tuning In resonates more strongly than ever. This has been a year of deep listening, understanding, and responding to the evolving needs of the young people we serve. We have committed to tuning in to their voices, their challenges, and their aspirations in a world that continues to change rapidly around them._ _The ongoing cost-of-living crisis has deepened the struggles for many of the youth in our community. In response, we have tuned in by providing not only essential resources but also the healthy peer support and social connections that are vital during these tough times. Our programs are designed to be a lifeline, offering a safe space where teens can connect, share, and grow together. This year, more than ever, we saw how these connections helped young people find strength in each other._ _At the same time, we continued to focus on skill development, providing practical tools that can take our youth a long way. Whether through creative workshops or leadership initiatives, our goal has been to equip them with the skills they need to navigate their challenges, build confidence, and envision a brighter future._ _Tuning In has also meant empowering young people to tune into themselves. Our programs this year focused on self-awareness, resilience, and personal growth. We've expanded our support networks, bringing in new mentors, counselors, and community professionals, enabling teens to develop a stronger sense of self, purpose, and direction._ _The year has brought unprecedented challenges, but with it came an incredible opportunity to strengthen the fabric of our community. Together, we have fostered hope and resilience. With immense gratitude, we thank our funders, partners, and, most importantly, the young people who inspire us every day to continue this vital work._ _Here's to more listening, more growth, and more impact in the years ahead._ _Jamie Friedman_ ## **SAIL’s** commitment: **At SAIL we believe in every one of our boys! We elevate them from whichever situation they find themselves, and through empowering activities, e m o t i o n a l s u p p o r t a n d v o l u n t e e r i n g opportunities, we help them lead productive, stimulated and meaningful lives.** **To allow avenue for every young person to access services and opportunities regardless of their financial and emotional means.** **To prevent disadvantage from shaping the futures of young people. With sufficient support, struggling teens are less motivated to using negative behaviours to relieve their pain.** ## Breakfast Boxes Breakfast Boxes - Addressing the impact of rising living costs, we distributed 100 breakfast boxes weekly, carefully curated with costeffective yet nutritious options like granola, yogurt, whole wheat rolls, vegetable salad, and scrambled eggs. ## Teen Active Support group Amidst the challenges posed by the increasing cost of living, our weekly support group provides a vital platform for teenagers to openly share their hardships and concerns. Facilitated by a professional coach, these sessions not only foster interactive discussions but also offer practical strategies to overcome challenges. ## Eat and Study Hub Combining a cost-effective homework club with a daily warm meal, this initiative recognizes the financial strain on many youths due to escalating living costs. In the face of heightened hunger among teens, we aim to provide affordable sustenance for both body and mind. ## Leadership Skills Our ongoing project continues to address the emotional stressors impacting self-esteem levels. These sessions focus on enhancing user voice, refining public speaking skills, and fostering social inclusion, acknowledging the emotional challenges faced by the participants. ## Go Green For Mental Health Adapting to the challenges faced by teens, our Summer Club provided a well-balanced escape for over 100 participants. Daily activities, including biking, hiking, and various outdoor sports, offered a refreshing break from stressful schoolwork, rejuvenating spirits and preparing them for a new year with a focus on emotional well-being. **----- Start of picture text -----**

## 2023 IMPACT HIGHLIGHT: _**This year stands as another remarkable chapter in our journey, marked by significant successes and positive feedback that echo the dedication and hard work invested.**_ ## **Youth Perspective: Eli aged 14** _"At home, everything felt heavy. My parents were constantly worried about money, and I didn't know how to help. It made me feel powerless, like I was just in the way.”_ _Eli joined SAIL's Eat and Study Hub after hearing about it from a friend at school. He wasn't sure how a program like that could make a difference, but he quickly discovered it was more than just a place to do homework and eat._ _“The meals were great, but what really mattered was the support. I was able to talk about what was going on at home with people who actually understood. It was the first time I didn't feel alone with everything. SAIL helped me figure out ways I could make a difference—like teaching us how to save energy at home and pick up some skills to earn money one day. That really boosted my confidence.''_ ## **Youth Worker Perspective: Yosef, SAIL Youth Mentor** _"What I've seen time and again at SAIL is how much young people need someone to tune in to them—not just to their problems, but to their potential.”_ _Yosef has been a youth mentor at SAIL for four years, working closely with teens from financially struggling backgrounds. He believes that what sets SAIL apart is its ability to offer both practical and emotional support, helping young people develop skills that will carry them through challenging times._ ## **Parent Perspective: Esther, Mother of Shloimy** _"It's not easy watching your children go through hard times, especially when you feel like you're barely holding things together yourself. SAIL gave us all a sense of hope.”_ _Esther was struggling to provide for her family during the cost of living crisis, and her children were starting to feel the weight of financial stress at home. When her eldest son Shloimy, started attending SAIL, she noticed immediate changes—not just in her son, but in the entire household._ _"Shloimy used to be so quiet, so withdrawn. But after joining SAIL,she's come out of his shell. He's become more confident, more independent, and he's even started mentoring younger kids in the program. It's a relief as a parent to know that SAIL is there to support my son."_ Melodies of Progress: EAT & STUDY HUB: increased LESS more peer academic HUNGER support 71% 91% 94% achievements ## Melodies of Progress: BREAKFAST BOXES: less hunger increased healthy eating awareness ## Melodies of Progress: TEEN ACTIVE SUPPORT GROUP: increased emotional health dropped bad habits improved relationships Melodies of Progress: LEADERSHIP SKILLS: explored increased identity ( leadership roles 79% ) ( and self-esteem 93% } Melodies of Progress: SUMMER CLUB Ww improved increased improved improved emotional physical social health and ( 88% resilience } (97% activity ) interactions ( 93% wellbeing ) / _As we close this chapter, the melody of SAIL's past achievements echoes, harmonizing the stories of empowerment, community support, and growth. Our journey has been a composition of resilience and positive change. As we look ahead, the theme continues – a symphony of possibilities, new notes of innovation, and the promise of even greater impact. Together, let's compose a future where each note resonates with the success and well-being of the youth we serve.
