## Report of the trustees (incorporating the directors‟ report) for the period ended 30 June 2021 

## Message from the Chair of Kids N‟ Action Charity 

We are delighted to present our annual report and accounts for the year ending 30th June 2021, which has been a year of expansion, both in income received and in our programs 

This year (2020– 2021) has shown a slight decrease in our income in spite of the ongoing difficult financial climate. As a result, the Trustees had to make the difficult decision to decrease 

both in the numbers to target more disadvantaged users, however the quality and quantity of our projects were on the same high standard. 

Our 5 week school holiday programme provided activities to 911 young people aged 3-14 years, and we were able to give them more new and creative experiences than ever before 

In total, we provided services to more than 1161 disadvantage young people over the year, and this included a significant development in our training program, with more planned for the years ahead. 

The Trustees understand the current difficult financial climate, and feel a great responsibility to provide value for money to our loyal funders as well as to our disadvantaged users. We are delighted to be able report that we have been able to provide services in line with covid guidelines thus enabling disadvantaged children to benefit from our amazing services even in these turbulent times. 

## Activities included 

A Maths SATS Club for 15 high achievers, an often neglected and frustrated group of young 

people to enable them to achieve level 6 in Math SATS, and to increase their enjoyment of the subject. 

A consortium, facilitated by the Interlink Foundation of which we are part, successfully bid for Young Hackney funds, and enabled Kids N Action to provide Accredited training in the following: 

A course of AQA Accredited training in Youth leadership skills for 45 young volunteer youth workers, opening new employment opportunities and a great future for them. 

An out of school Music club for 65, 14-16 year olds, leading to ABRSM qualifications (graded exams of the Royal Schools of Music) at levels 1-7. This is climaxedinamusic con- cert at which the young people were able to display their knowledge and skills to friends and family. 

2 



Our young people‟s forum at which the young people decide on and prepare the themes and content of the after school and holiday programs, and are a fruitful source of on-going input, criticism and feedback throughout the year. 

We also provide Ofsted registered childcare to disadvantaged children aged 3 months – 3 years: and our other after– school and holiday activities span an age range of 3-16 years. 

We continue to focus more strongly on children and young adults with physical, emotional & learning disabilities, and have improved our skills and expertise in these fields Our lift continues to provide improved accessibility for disabled users enabling them to take part in all projects, regardless in which part of the building they are taking place. Outings are planned with their specialised needs in mind, so that activities are integrated, with both groups, disabled and abled, mutually benefiting from this amenity. We have continued to recruit physically learning disabled young adults as volunteer youth leaders, enabling them to acquire the skills, knowledge and confidence which will encourage them to develop a career in this field. This new project has also empowered them to integrate better with their peers and into society as a whole. Our library club continues to encourage reading and improved literacy skills to users. We provided IT courses to 149, 12-16 year olds to enable them to improve their computer skills to a level relevant to the world of today. We provide appropriate levels of support for children and young people with social and emotional issues including those with learning and physical disabilities, to enable them to integrate in all our after-school and holiday mainstream programs. We were successful in accessing funds from London Youth for our homework club, mental health support & prevent holiday hunger program. We look back on the year with quiet satisfaction. We thank our generous funders, who continue to enable Kids N Action to thrive, and we look forward to a promising and sustainable future, with a maintained level of reserves, but always with the great and increasing need for our service at the front of our minds.

## Kids N‟ Actions‟ Holiday Programmes 

## The Need: 

The Need: Kids N‟ Action have seen the need for its services to continue to expand. The difficult economic times we are experiencing have produced more problems; more families in serious financial difficulties, more parents and children with greater emotional problems, more overcrowded housing, more need for services for physically, emotionally and learning disabled and otherwise isolated young people. 

## Our Response: 

Kids N‟ Action‟s response to this greater and urgent need continues to be to consolidate, and secure our future. We have expanded our range of activities, we have provided more places and to a wider age range. We have recruited a number of young people to plan and implement activities to improve the age appropriateness of our programme, and to enhance their social impact. Our successful fundraising programme has enabled us to provide more age – focused and exciting activities throughout the year. 

We cannot cease to thank our funders for their support in the work we do, and for their ongoing generous, financial input, being our partners in the vital work of improving the lives of disadvantaged and socially excluded young people, giving them joy and inspiration together with the real hope of a sunny future. 

## The Impact of Our Work: 

All the different facets of our work lead to a number of positive outcomes: 


1) Young people with increased social skills, self-confidence and joie de vivre, contributing to a more positive and productive future. 

2) Improved physical wellbeing, and the skills and knowledge they will need to enable them to lead more healthy lives. As a result of funding from Sport England via a consortium bid, 248 young people have enthusiastically embarked on a program of after school netball sessions, significantly improving their skills and fitness. 

3) A wider range of interests and experiences, supporting the young people towards a future with enhanced employment and leisure time prospects. To quote a user “Thanks to Kids N‟ Action, now that I know so much more about so many new things, after school and weekends are full of interesting activities for me to do. It has changed my life.” 

4) A range of improved skills and knowledge, supported by accredited qualifications, including AQA in leadership skills and ABRSM in music, setting the young people firmly on the road towards future study, qualifications and high quality employment potential. 

4 



5) The successful integration of physically handicapped and learning disabled young people into our programs, both as users, and equally importantly, as young volunteers. This is an ongoing process, and we have seen the number of disabled young people in both categories increasing year on year. From an 18 year old disabled volunteer: "I have a new existence! Till now life was boring and lonely, I had nothing to do and no one to do it with. Now that I volunteer for Kids N Action, booking trips, processing application forms and answering the phone, my life has taken on a new meaning. I have made lots of friends, learnt new skills and feel so useful! I look forward to each day and know that I am making a positive contribution. My life has been transformed; mere words can‟t describe how grateful I am to Kids N Action for the opportunities it has given me. 

6) As a result of our success in a consortium bid led by The Interlink Foundation as part of the Hackney Youth Tender, 45 young people became accredited in AQA leadership skills, and another 35 have achieved an ABRSM music qualification at different levels, with 21 more young people still in the process. 

The Future: 


We see 2020 – 2021 as a year of ongoing consolidation for all our projects. We are by no means sitting back; we are continuing to develop new activities, increasing the places we can offer to many more disadvantaged users as we have described above. 

We are planning to join more consortia to enable us to provide more and better services to more disadvantaged users. 

We will continue to support physically, emotionally and learning disabled young adults to enter the world of work via the volunteering pathway. 

All this will only be made possible by our generous and loyal funders. We thank you on behalf of our users for choosing to be our partners in Kids N‟ Action and its work, and by improving the present and future lives of our disadvantaged users.

## Report of the Trustees: 

## Risk Management:

The trustees have put in place systems to identify risks and review the systems regularly.

## Reserves Policy: 

The trustees aim to hold free realisable reserves of at least 3 months, but no more than 12 months running costs, in order to protect services when there are uncertainties as to whether finding will continue. As at 30th June 2021, the organisation‟s unrestricted reserves were equal to about 3 months running costs. The trustees aim to continue to consolidate and preferably improve the organisations financial position. 

## Aims and Objectives: 


The aims of Kids N‟ Action are to promote and advance the education of children and young people, to provide facilities and programs for children and young people for their recreation and other leisure-time occupation so as to develop their skills, to enhance their employment prospects and to assist them in growing to full maturity as individuals and as members of society, so that 

their conditions of life may improve. 

## Review of performance and achievements: 

Kids N‟ Action had a good year, despite external challenges. We were able to consolidate and increase our income, and concurrently increase the scope of activities and the number of disadvantaged children and young people included in our programs. 

We continue to target children on low income, recent immigrants, and children with special educational needs and/or children and young people with moderate to severe physical, social or emotional disabilities. We do this by providing many activities after-school hours and via our 3 major holiday programmes. 

1314 participants enjoyed our holiday day-camps tremendously, with a wide variety of activities. They learnt lots of new skills including; social skills, confidence at school and at home amongst many other benefits. Some examples of workshops carried out were Bendaroos modelling, snow globe designing, music sessions, Shrinkles making, creative arts n‟ crafts sessions, healthy eating and nutrition , keep fit and exercise, umbrella and wristlet decorating, drama, dancing & singing. There were also lots of exciting educational and recreational offsite trips, to places which they would otherwise not have the opportunity to visit and to give them useful skills and experiences. We used creative approaches to enhance the learning, educational and recreational experiences of the participants in order to cut down the expenses. 

All this led to them having better life chances and will give them richer and more fulfilled lives. Through our annual performance and various courses, the young people were also able to develop latent creative and artistic talent and take pride in their self- image and maximised their potential, increasing independence and personal fulfilment. 

The Big Give made a considerable contribution to our funds, and as a result, we were able to provide a better Summer and Winter program. Thank you very much.

Previous initiatives begun as a result of user consultation & feedback included a Math SATS Club, instrument playing leading to accredited qualifications and Leadership Skills accredited AQA training, which we were able to consolidate and develop further. 

Priority is given to children with Special Educational Needs, developmentally challenged children, disabled children and their siblings, new immigrants and those who do not speak English as their first language, “hard to reach”, dysfunctional families and those who are in receipt of family support and counselling, children from large families living in over- crowded housing with no outdoor play facilities and children who are referred to us by their school or family support organisations. 

The London Youth Quality Mark is the UK quality standard for all organisations involving volunteers. Kids N‟ Action prides itself for achieving the bronze, silver and gold quality mark. This is to show recognition for the excellent work we do with our users and young volunteers and proves the professionalism of our services. 

Kids N' Action was assessed against a range of best practice standards and proved to excel in all aspects of working with its volunteers. 

## Achievements: 

We have remained financially secure with our reserves seeing small increase. 

We have developed our volunteer program, recruiting more young volunteers and providing them with more training and wider work experience. The volunteers are a vital resource for Kids N Action and we value their involvement tremendously, because this enables many more deprived and disadvantage young people to access our services and activities at minimal cost. 

We continued to recruit a number of physically and emotionally disabled volunteers; this venture has proved a great success, and we are planning a further expansion to this project. We have strengthened our links with our Stakeholders, including partner organisations, who provide out of hours activities to different sections of the community. We share facilities, ideas and materials, in order to reduce costs and get a better deal from providers. 

We look forward to the coming year with cautious optimism, considering the current financial climate, and we feel privileged to be able to improve the lives of children who are disadvantaged through no fault of their own and give them better chances in life. Our on- going and expanding user consultation has enabled us to stay in touch with the changing and evolving needs of our users. 

We are delighted to see that our members continue to increase, evidencing both the ever - growing need, and our success in meeting this need.

## COVID 19 IMPACT 

This past Year was a more challenging situation than any of us had ever seen before. The easiest option would have been to cancel our programs, but how could we let down our users? We saw the desperate need, we did our best, and would you believe it? We managed to give 1504 vulnerable children and young people from BAME communities the time of their lives, in spite of everything. These children had a wonderful time at our local holiday play scheme. 

We organised them into bubbles, checked their temperature daily, and prepared allencompassing risk assessments, as well as lots of hand sanitizers and a special Covid health and safety policy, as well as training for our staff and volunteers, of whom we had lots more than usual to meet the often complex and differing needs of the young people attending. We had everything in place to keep these children safe. 

The children were busy with lots of activities including trampolining, recreational trips, onsite physical activities and sports, walking and orienteering socials, enriching programs, educational games and arts „n crafts etc.… It was all a shining ray of light for them after the months of lockdown, illness and bereavement they had been through. 

But all the above meant that we have experienced a devastating loss of funds at a time when we‟ve also had a lot of extra expenses due to the rise of costs, as entrance fees, arts and craft all went up drastically in price and we had to provide more staff and coaches to provide smaller groups of activities in line with our covid-19 policy. 

Like other UK charities, Kids N Action had to dig deep to overcome the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, eating into its reserves to support growing demand for services. Its income was particularly badly hit in the early days of the first lockdown. 

We don‟t have a set fundraising target for this year‟s appeal but we are committed to doing everything we can to help vulnerable children and young people get through the current poverty crisis and we look forward to getting support from funders to cover the costs of the programs and to ensure there are three months free reserves in the account. 

12 



Kids N’ Action’s numbers have INCREASED 60 users to 1314 from including 5 disabled children attesting to the quality of our pro244 grams. Our staff consists of hardworking individuals who are 25 trained and qualified. We offer fun filled days of day camp which EXCITING offer stimulating and accredit- programs for our users. 90 ed CERTIFICATES are handed out for leadership skills and music. 182 CARING and LOVING volunteers, leading to 99% positive parents and participation.
