An Executive Committee is responsible for leading and managing the work of the charity. The Executive Committee meets at least twice a year, and normally three or four times a year. The Executive Committee takes responsibility for monitoring the activities undertaken by staff and volunteers and the outcomes and impact achieved. They receive regular reports from staff and volunteers on the children and youth work sessions, trips and special events. The Executive Committee is also responsible for overseeing policies and procedures including safeguarding. Finances and other resources are also managed by the Executive Committee, which receives regular finance reports from the Treasurer.  The Executive Committee regularly reviews any major risks on an annual basis. Cambourne Youth Partnership works closely with Cambourne Town Council (which funds some of our community work), Romsey Mill (a leading charity working with children, young people and families across Cambridgeshire), Cambourne Church, South Cambridgeshire District Council and Cambridgeshire County Council (particularly the locality team).

In addition to the Trustees, Cambourne Youth Partnership receives regular help from a small but dedicated number of volunteers.  In the 2022-23 year, CYP benefited from the help of 12 volunteers (excluding trustees). Many volunteers have undertaken a youth work qualification managed by Romsey Mill. 

You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: 

- policy on grantmaking; 

- policy programme related investment; 

- contribution made by volunteers. 



**Summary of the main achievements of the charity** Cambourne Youth Partnership has maintained a range of activities during **during the year** 2022-23 through the work of four part-time youth workers, along with Romsey Mill’s Youth Development Team Coordinator and a range of other volunteers, including CYP trustees. Open access clubs and activities such as boxing and football have also allowed issues such as healthy relationships, career progression, sexuality, drugs and alcohol, healthy eating, criminality, racial hatred and gender equality to be explored. A wellbeing café for young people takes place on a weekly basis, creating an informal space for young people who might be struggling with mental or emotional wellbeing. This has been supported financially by funding from the local medical practice. Increasing use has been made of the music studio, allowing young people to create and record their own songs. A ‘Blue Bag’ project has been launched, providing free sanitary products to young people who need them. This initiative has been expanded to other areas of Cambridge through the Romsey Mill network and also through local Foodbanks.

You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about: 

- the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising); 

- how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; 

- investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted. 

CYP are grateful for the financial support of the Cambourne Town Council in providing an annual grant of £30,000 for the financial year 2022-23. This grant is all the more essential given the removal of universal/open access activities for young people formerly provided by the County Council, but now eliminated by funding cuts. 

Funding for activities is also received from our partner Romsey Mill and from the UK Youth Fund. 

Our expenditure supports the key objectives of the charity primarily through staffing the young people’s regular activities and the financing of weekly activities, trips and materials. CYP youth workers are employed by our partner Romsey Mill, to whom we transfer grant money received to pay for their services.
