Chairman's Review As with most ¢haritses, once again this reporting year was fraught with challenges and uncertainty brought about by the continuing COVID 10 pandemic. However, it also provided us with tho opportunity to contsnue and develop seNices that were sel up as emergency Tesponse projects during 2020. Despite fears throughout the Third Sector, we saw our income from trusts and grants increase from the previous year as COVIO felated funding durino this period was still available. Additionalty, our families, 011going needts and positive outcomes, meant lunders were keen to maintain their support ol thca¢ new services. Funders also appreGiated the Importan of isolated young people wilh disabilities retuming to adivities Dut in the community and kindly supported the purchase of a new BOSP minibus. Donatsons were d¢)wn, but fundraising saw an increase in income due to the relum of our successful face- topface events such as the BUbP Summer tlall, bparkling lunch and the Billencay Chrisa$ Market. As restrictions were eased, moré part-time sessional Support Workers Imany of whom are key workers) were able 10 relurn 10 their second job at BOSP, whlch meant more chlldren could attend each seSSiL7n. This resulled in increased in session contributions Compared with the previous year. The sector has fvrther predicted a shortfall of fund5 10 5UPPOrt charities Ihrough COVID recovery and beyond. Sources are citing that many funds have now been exhausted, whilst others had boen adversely ffected by low investment returns upon which they rely. As we move into this penod ot re¢overy tollowing the pandemic anij lo prepare for possitrAe austerity ahead, BOSP has endeavoured to increase free reserves to the equivalent of five months, income. The 2021122 Accounts evidence the sound financial management of BOSP, where the trustees reviewed income and expenditure against budgets monthly. to ensure that OUT financial position always remained sustainable. The trustees continue to keep BOSP'S Governance practices under review and ensure that our policies are regularly reviewed and updated as required. With the DpeNing of Qui self-coiilained Skills for Life Centre in February 2021, we Gonlinued to adapt to an ever-changing environment as w@ endeavoured lo meet the needs of families we serve. Having autonomy of premises from which to deliver vital services has provided qreaier flexibility and control in terms of the services we offer, helping to ensure our future sustainability.

In the lighl of these Ghallenges, l am extremely proud of our dedicated workforce, volunteers and fellow trustees at BOSP, whose endeavouTS have not only enabled BOSP lo maintsin its serVIS during this past year but also enabled It to expand, providing additional help lo more families who required it. I would also like to extend my heartfelt thanks lo all our supporters for showing their commitment to BOSP bv continuinq to donate, in Ihe knowledge that something that hasn't changed during this lime is our dedication to help families across South Essex and surrounding areas who havo Children and young people with disabilitip.r4 Peter Davies - Chaiman [1

Services and Support Everyone has Len i501ated during COVID bul no more so than families who have children with disabilities, often referred lo as 'the forgotten demographic, during the pandemi¢. The Children's Disability Partnership's IDCP) 2021 research exposed the dispfOPOrtionalely negatsve Impact of the pandemic on such famllles. From surveying hundreds of parenls actoss Ihe UK, the OCP found that over 800h of all formal and informal support services for families whether It be througn local authorities, charities, or friend5 and family, has reduced during the pandemic. 3 in 4 disabled children experienced delays in vital health appointments dunno the pandemic, such as otthopaedic d55e¥bfTiviilb, ui MRI 14¥aiis. 8uGh cheGk-ups are ess¢nlial for flagging i¥¥ue¥ and identifying where potentially life4hanging medical interventions. such as physiotherapy are needed. As a result, when children retumed to BOSP after a period of isolating. we noticed many had regressed, wllh decreased muscle tone and mobility. co-ordination, communication skills and behaviouF. So, whilst wc wcrc ablc to Icgally increase attendancè numbars at sossiong in th•1gl•r part of the yèar, many ehildren and young people required a higher level of support than previously. Following the relaxation of Govemment restriction5 in Sumrner 2021. apart from Hydrotherapy sessions, we were able lo progressively resume our full programme of services and support, however staffing levels rp.mFAingd low.

Strict COVID regulations set by such employers restrictino 1hp.ir qtAff from working second Jobs,. along with a general recruitment crisis in the Care Sector, meant BOSP didn't reach its desired numkr of sessional Support Workers this year, so whilst our range of services increased lo maBt ehangin9 n•ods, we were unablè lo meet our delivery budg@.1 Thc folli>wing club: ond support eèrvicee were provided by BOSP in the year ended 3111 March 2022..

This was resulting in parent carers unable to work a5 they h¢id lo wiiliiiu¥ lu Ili¥ir full-time Garing duties.

In response, BOSP launched an emergency project to provide weekday care support for these children and young people. This enabled families to remain workinq whilst BOSP provided learning and developmental opportunities during the week with the aim of reducing the children and young people's isolation and providing them with the social stimulus, confidence and life skills required to enablè thèm to bp_ SA8 Ind9.ndent 88 they possibly can be. Many childr@n and young peoplè with disabilitses ieturned lo eduGalion during this financial year. Howover, w9 continugd tho $onJice as we found there were slill many children with additional needs who were nol a¢ssIng school due to in5vfficient places available at Special Schools, whilst othefg were not at school full-time because their social anxiety and resultant behaviours meant thgt the school or thp_ e.hibd e.niild nDt tt0.

Considering such faGtors as requiring funds for unforeseen emergency or other unexpected needs, uncertainty regarding renewal of existing grants and Ihe requirement lo cover necessary expenditures in advance of reit of Income, the Trustees have esiablished a policy whereby the oiganisalions reserves should be been three and six months of the Charity's general running costs. As al 31 $1 March 2022. BOSP hèld free reserves of £186,660, which approYimAtp.q tn S months, general running costs.
