## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the period** **From Period start date 5 May 2020 To Period end date 4 May 2021 Charity name: Abingdon DAMASCUS Youth Project** **Charity registration number: 1098966** ## **Objectives and Activities** ||SORP
reference|| |---|---|---| |Summary of the
purposes of the
charity as set out
in its governing
document|Para 1.17|To promote the development of the personal, social &
educational potential of all young people between the
ages of 11 and 18, and up to 25 years where there are
special circumstances, who live in the area
encompassed by Vale of White Horse and South
Oxfordshire District Councils and in particular those who
are disadvantaged by adverse social conditions.
Our current work is focussed in the rural Oxfordshire
villages of Drayton, Appleford, Milton, Sutton Courtenay
and Steventon (DAMASCUS) and the neighbouring
Abingdon town. We also engage and support young
people through the Abingdon and Didcot secondary
schools to synergise the school and community support.| |Summary of the
main activities in
relation to those
purposes for the
public benefit, in
particular, the
activities, projects
or services
identified in the
accounts.|Para 1.17
and 1.19|Our activities promote a shared sense of belonging with
youth advocacy and leadership in the community as the
focus, and build intergenerational bridges for sustainable
communities. Over the years the needs have widened
with the advent of the internet and social media and
increased awareness of mental health through
adolescence and vulnerability of young people to
exploitation. Thus, bespoke early intervention and
prevention is at the heart of all we do.
Street work by our youth workers and other volunteers
identify needs before they escalate, and builds trusting
relationships with disengaged vulnerable young people
in need of support whom we then support through
focused goal-oriented one-to-one sessions. We also
undertake:
Development and training of young leaders in the
community.
Inter-generational community interaction through
community projects (village fetes, inter-generational
workshops, litter pick, helping the elderly in the
community, cricket, football etc.).
Regular sports, arts, and music fun activities to raise
confidence and self-esteem.
Young people led participation in county workshops and
forum, presentations at project AGM, parish council
meetings etc.
Youth Drop-in sessions in village halls.| 1 ||SORP

confirming
whether the
trustees have had
regard to the
guidance issued
by the Charity
Commission on
public benefit|Para 1.18|In planning our activities for the year, the trustees have
given due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance
on public benefit in deciding what charitable activities the
charity should undertake.
Recognising that ‘one size does not fit all’, the benefits
are delivered through diverse but holistic and
empowering approaches to young people within their
communities and working in partnership with other
statutory and voluntary bodies that are also involved in
the lives of our young people.
Our activities in this reporting year were adapted to
enable continuing support to young people during the
pandemic including during periods of lockdown. Our
intergenerational work came into its own as young
people were able to provide socially-distanced and
covid-safe support to the elderly and isolated. We are
proud that we were able to support young people, their
parents, and their communities through the ongoing
pandemic.
This year we also led activities around reflecting and
strengthening youthwork practice in Equality, Diversity
and Inclusion in largely White British communities
through county-wide fora hosted by Oxfordshire Youth.
Staff are inducted in policies and procedures and all
activities are risk assessed. Safeguarding is high on our
agenda with a constantly reviewed culture of vigilance.| **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: ||SORP

achievements of
the charity,
identifying the
difference the
charity’s work has
made to the
circumstances of

and any wider
benefits to society
as a whole.|Para 1.20|In addition to our core work of regular engagement with
young people through our street work we carried out the
following activities in 2020/2021
**Covid19 Work**
As a team we were quick to act and move our support
for young people online as everyone was told to stay at
home. We created new social media pages, were doing
live updates and contacting individual young people via
phone and video calls to ensure everyone was safe and
coping during the first national lockdown. We found
many young people were struggling to do their
schoolwork because of their environment, lack of
resources or parent capacity to support to them.
Because of this we were supporting young people with
homework questions, delivering resources and create
digital escape rooms for young people where they had to
use Maths and English skills to escape. During this time,
we were getting a lot of concerns from young people
regarding the elderly and isolated in their communities
and decided to put a list of items and contacts together
for ‘care packs’ which they then helped us to deliver.
**Instagram Live**
Due to strict rules around Covid-19, at times face to face
sessions were not permitted so the team quickly found
other ways of engaging with the Young People via
Instagram live. We would advertise times to meet online
and run activities and play games via this method,
games such as Pictionary or a quiz.
**TATTS (Talk About The Tough Stuff)**
TATTS has become an online safe place for a
discussion-led forum by one of our Young Leaders.| 3 Primarily started and largely based around race and living in a rural area, it has also become a safe place to talk about mental health and wellbeing. ## **Youth Drop-In’s / Support Groups** Our usual youth drop-ins had to change this year to fit in with covid19 guidance which meant they turned from drop-ins to invite-only youth support groups for our most vulnerable young people aged 10-18. The support groups would be themed each month on topics that met the young people’s needs such as Coping In Lockdown, Mental Health and Wellbeing, Sleep Hygiene and Relationships. ## **Gazebo Drop-Ins** Similar to the youth drop-ins, the gazebo drop-ins also had to be made invite only for our most vulnerable groups during the lockdown however, as restrictions eased, we were allowed to reintroduce the sessions as a drop-in and were allowed to deliver sporting activities to keep young people healthy during lockdown. ## **Street Work** Street work or detached youth work happens every evening where youth workers will be out on the streets, 4 engaging with young people, building relationships, identifying issues, and creating bespoke support opportunities. It is in street work where we often meet with young people who are not engaging with any other services and are usually vulnerable or at high risk of slipping through the net of other support services. ## **Educational Issue-Based Workshops** We have delivered a number of educational issue-based workshops including Staying Safe in the Community, Online Resilience, Healthy Relationships and THC Aware. This year we have also developed and delivered workshops to parents to give them advice on supporting their teenage children during lockdown. Topics included THC awareness, Online and Offline Relationships and Mental Health and Wellbeing. We have also greatly focused on relationships and sexual health as we identified a number of young people were in unhealthy relationships and needed support. **Youth Ambassadors** This year we have trained 2 groups of Youth Ambassadors who have been trained in Youth Leadership and Advocacy and each group has chosen an issue to advocate for. The Youth Ambassadors from South Abingdon focused on general health and tobacco as a topic and presented a tobacco workshop at some of our groups to other young people. This group also focused on liaising with the town council to consult young people on their needs and to advocate to improve recreation facilities. The Sutton Courtenay Youth Ambassador group focused on advocating for better youth facilities in the village by creating a questionnaire, consulting young people, and feeding back their finding to the parish council. **Boot Camp** This project was created and delivered by our youth worker specialising in sports coaching who was inspired to get young people, particually those who shy away from sports, involved in a physical activity. It also allowed young people to explore a way of exercise they wouldn’t necessarily have tried through schools or other clubs. "I have so much more energy than I thought! I'm waking up earlier and want to do more with my day than just 5 school, eating food and sleeping and I’m going to bed earlier too!" Young person 13 - South Abingdon "The boot camps are so much fun. We get to play lots of games and get fit as we do it! Also, No one likes burpees here anymore!" Young Person 11 - Sutton Courtenay ## **Active Reach** This project ran over the summer in South Abingdon, it was for the community with the aim of getting people moving. A competition was held where together the goal was for the residents to walk and upload their steps to see if within the target weeks the calculated steps were the same as walking the coastal paths around England. As well as this Active Reach activity packs were made and distributed to families with activity cards and equipment for fun games and exercise the whole family could do at home. ## **Sports sessions** When covid rules allowed we added additional sports sessions into our week allowing the young people to come along and enjoy some outdoor activities, fresh air and exercise. We would often play sports such as rounders, cricket, and dodge ball. This really helped non active children, gain confidence to get involved in sports. ## **Doorstep Bingo** During the main lockdown as rules started to change, Doorstep Bingo was started as an introductory way to start getting the elderly residents who had been shielding out of their houses again an something to look forward too. We would walk with the Young People 6 delivering bingo slips and then once a week we would gather in front of the house with the Young People helping to set up the area, bingo call, deliver prizes and have general conversation with the residents. " The bingo has been amazing for me. During the first 8 weeks of lockdown I hadn't got changed out of my pyjamas let alone left the house. Now every Wednesday I have something to get dressed for and can get some fresh air". Elderly Resident, Sutton Courtenay "Calling the bingo numbers each week has boosted my confidence so much in recent weeks, I was always the shy quiet kid now look at me, All the twos, its two little ducks (quack quack)". Young Person 14 - Sutton Courtenay ## **Litter Picks** Young people thoroughly enjoy looking after the environment by running community litter picks. We do several throughout every year at young people’s request. ‘’We love litter picking, you never know what you might find and it’s good that adults seeing us doing something 7 good in the village coz they usually moan about us’’ – Young person, 13. **Aquarius** We partnered with Aquarius to deliver substance abuse and anxiety workshops at our gazebo drop-ins to young people at risk of or are misusing substances so they can better understand the risks and get support. “I didn’t know what to expect but actually that was really good” – Young person, 17. ## **Police workshop in Abingdon** We invited PC Russ Massie to visit our young people under the gazebo to talk about the relationship between young people and the police. There was lots of good conversation around the laws, changing of the laws and the best approach from both police and Young People. The Young People learnt about stop and search rights and what info the police can legally ask for without a charge. It was a very interesting session and one we will repeat. Since this workshop, two of the young people who attended were so inspired we have been able to support further communications between them and Russ Massie to further their knowledge about recruitment into the police force. ## **Fishing Project** We incorporated fishing into our 1-2-1 support sessions ensuring they were covid safe and enabled a calm space for talking and learning new skills "Coming to these 121s and going fishing has helped me realise who my real friends are. I have made so much progress at school lately because now I’m not playing the fool in class. On top of that I’ve learned new skills and made some great memories". Young Person 14 - South Abingdon 8 "I had one aim today and that was to catch a pike on a lure, an hour later and I had it. If only finding a job was this easy!" Young Person 17 - South Abingdon **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |Achievements

event that no new income is received in the
year. Thus, in setting a level of reserve trustees
have regard to the stability of employment to
staff over at least a one-year period as at the
core of our work is building strong and trusting
relationships with young people. The trustees
are also aware of the elapsed time from
applying for a long-term grant to the award of
such a grant and the need to ensure that there
are sufficient finances to keep the project going
